Happy Birthday Jed!

Nicholas's Fun Weekend

Nicholas had a fun weekend. He woke up in a goofy mood yesterday, which made breakfast fun. He went to play with his buddy, Eli, in the afternoon. They had a blast riding in Eli's Powerwheels truck :) Nick actually ate 1 whole chicken finger for dinner! That might not seem like a lot, but he has been on a hunger strike recently. Today Nicholas ate a big breakfast and then we headed to the zoo. We saw some animals, played at the park, fed some ducks, and then we went to see the Discovery Animal Show. At the end of the show, Nick was able to pet some of the animals we learned about. He was very excited to pet them (he wants to pet and hold every animal we see at the zoo!). He loves all animals and wasn't afraid of any of them :)

Haircut Time

After keeping his hair shaggy for the winter, we decided it was time to get Nick's hair cut short again. When John went in to get Nicholas in the morning, he was coaching him to not sit in the pink car. So, he would have Nick repeat "Don't sit in the pink car today." When we got to Cookie Cutters, we asked him what he wanted to sit in. He usually goes straight for the red race car, but he stopped at the pink car. I asked if he wanted the red race car and he said, "Daddy likes the pink car." Nicholas did not quite understand what daddy was telling him...haha. So, he had to sit in the pink car (for daddy) yesterday. It had been a while since they had used the clippers on him, and he was not too thrilled with them. Usually, he doesn't care about them. But, as you can tell in one of the pictures, he was not too happy yesterday. He looks like a whole new boy with his new haircut. I think it took a few months off his age ;0)

Nick Update

Here are some pictures from Nicholas at MyGym on Wednesday. He loves "How Do"(he calls it that becuase of the "How Do You Do" song) days. The drive down there is fun with Nick. He points out when he sees one of our 3 cars and pretty much anything else he sees and knows. In fact, he saw a panda on the drive down this week :0) HAHA When we get off the highway at the exit for MyGym, Nicholas says "Almost there!" He really knows his way around town.

Happy Birthday Uncle John!!!!

Nick's Busy Day

Nicholas had his ear tubes put back in and his adenoids removed today. We have had a long day, so I will try to write more about it soon. I just wanted to get some pics up. Nicholas is doing well, but is still very groggy.
