when did summer start ending in august?

we went back to work this week. i say "we" because it really is we. john may start leaving the house again on a daily basis, but here i stay learning to juggle two children again. no more 1:1 ratio or dividing & conquering. aidan has been, uh, busy (difficult), of late, hopefully he makes the transition back to just us again without any major meltdowns or broken furniture. jack is seriously the easiest thing ever created, so unless aidan unleashes his fury in jack's direction i expect him to just smile & nod through the changes.

aidanisms:
~'i really, really, really stuck mommy'--applies whenever he's even remotely caught somewhere
~post nighttime & post nap time 'MOMMY! MOM! MOMMY! WHERE ARE YOU? MOMMY! MOMMY!'--it continues loudly until i go to get him (more than 5 minutes on some occasions)
~'my sock broken mommy'--when his socks get twisted around
~'where the clouds mommy? there the clouds mommy. i want to touch the clouds mommy.' -- 'the clouds are too high aidan, we can't touch them. not even mommy can reach them' -- 'I WANT TO TOUCH THEM! WA WA WA WA WA WA' (the tantrum continued until a bird flew by and we repeated the whole conversation with a bird substituted for the clouds.
~'my do it'--means he wants to do it, but sounds very similar to 'mommy do it' (which is sometimes what he wants) ... it's led to a few tantrums when i don't know which one he is saying.
~"where's daddy aidan?" "at work mommy" "what's he doing at work" "making money, money, money" (in a high pitched voice while rubbing his thumb and forefinger together)

(it's not trick photography, jack's head really is almost as big as aidan's)
