Our Friends!

Our friends Nate and Andrea came up to Rexburg and stopped in to say hi. Nate and Johnny grew up together, and him and his wife live in El Paso Texas now. They have a son, Carson, who is just a month older than Niko so we think it's fun that we have kids the same age! However, Carson needs to teach Niko a thing or two because he has been walking since he was about 9 months old, and we're still trying to get Niko to walk! Oh well....

Here are a few pictures of them "playing" together. It was mostly them playing next to each other or trying to take things from each other. The pics aren't that great, but Carson is adorable so I just had to put some pictures of them up!

Opening Gifts!

At first, Niko did not get the concept of opening presents, but after the first gift he caught on really fast. He clapped after every present and had the biggest smile on his face the entire time!

He got all sorts of fun goodies, including some cool buzz lightyear pajamas, stuffed animals, cute summer outfits and Toy Story DVD! What a lucky boy and we could not have been happier with his birthday! We love you so much Niko!!!!

Happy Birthday Little Man!

Sorry it has taken me forever to get Niko's birthday up! Niko turned one on May 19th! We had a blast! We did Nintendo/Mario themed decor and had yummy cupcakes and cake! His cupcakes were 1-ups and mushrooms and his cake had a mini wii remote in it!

Niko ate his whole piece of cake and had a stomach ache the next night! We decided that we'll just give him carrots and broccoli for his next birthday :)

Handsome Boy with a Handsome Haircut

Niko got ANOTHER haircut! He was definitely due for one, his hair could almost be put into a little ponytail in the back, it was so long! We went to my personal favorite hair salon, Reflections, and got him an absolutely adorable hair cut. The lady who cut it did such a great job and Niko was so well behaved. He sat perfectly still in my lap and sucked on his lollipop. The only time he ever moved around was to look behind him and smile at the hairstylist. I was very proud of him and so glad we got a great stylist for him! Even little boy hair cuts need to look good!
