Aaron's Blog

This week we found out that Aaron will be in Miss Bowyer’s class at Bickleigh Down School when he moves into Year 1 in September. We are really pleased about this as she was a great teacher for Ben and really nice. Aaron will love her! 😉

This was Aaron’s 1st Sports Day at school and he was put in the same team as Ben so that we could easily follow them around during their events. Aaron did really well and tried very hard at each event, and seemed to enjoy it all! The events that he took part in included small hurdles, egg and spoon race, treasure grabbing, football dribbling and then a running race at the end. Aaron’s team (and Ben’s), Lynher, won the entire event, so they were very happy with this!

Happy birthday Aaron, how are you 5 already!?!

This year, Aaron’s birthday fell on a Wednesday so he had school during they day, which limited us to what we could do. He did manage to open up all his presents before school though and he was very pleased with the array of Paw Patrol figures and vehicles that he had (he is obsessed with Paw Patrol). His main present was the Paw Patroller from Mummy and Daddy, which he had been going on about for months! But he also had a selection of other Paw Patrol figures and vehicles that go with the Paw Patroller. So to say he was excited was an understatement! He also got a new chair, Pie Face, clothes, chocolate and sweets, books and a few other gifts. He was very happy with it all!

As usual, the birthday boy could choose what he wanted for tea, and because the weather was nice, he decided he wanted a BBQ up on Dartmoor, so that is what we did!  We found a nice area to setup camp and had a nice BBQ and play with the football and scratch pad and ball. We all had a lovely time although there was a couple of hitches.  Firstly, the lighter ran out so I had to drive to Yelverton to get a new one from the shop and then Aaron desperately needed the toilet, so Kelly had to drive him to the toilets in Yelverton. Apart from that, it was great!

The following Friday was Aaron’s actual birthday party with his friends, and it was held at Jump. It was a great two hours and the children were non-stop, apart from when they quietened down to eat their birthday food. Aaron chose to do football as part of the party, instead of a disco or party games, but some of the children were a bit too rough, so he ended up sitting most of it out. Typical Aaron! 😉 Generally, he had a good time though and got lots and lots of presents from the 13 other friends that went!

For his birthday, Aaron got the game ‘Pie Face’. Unfortunately, he lost one of the games we played and got the cream in his face. He wasn’t happy. 😉

Pie Face Issues!

Here is a pic that was taken at School by his teacher of Aaron doing some Maths work. He brought this home at the end of the Easter term.
