Sitting Forward

I finally got around to spinning teeny man's car seat around this weekend.  It has been so cold and crappy this winter that I just haven't had the chance to do it until now.   I know you are supposed to keep them facing backwards until they are two, but he was sitting with his knees bent the whole time and kicking the seat.  Now he is big time.
 

He really likes swinging his legs in the car.  He kept looking around amazed he could see everyone.
 

Two crazy boys!

Boy Time

Three boys hangin' on the couch.

New Love Seat

We bought a new love seat over the weekend and it was delivered yesterday.  This replaces the old rocking chair that was literally falling apart and was quickly becoming a death trap as both boys liked to climb/jump on/off of it. 

As you can see, (or not see due to blankets & stuffed animals) Niko has claimed it as his own.   He won't let Daddy sit on it - it's "Niko's Couch."

Good Habits

This may not look like much, but Ryker-kun knows where dirty dishes go.   :)

Rough Night

Hellllooooooooo Terrible Twos.

Tattoo Party

We went to Monica's house over the weekend for a movie night.  Here is Ryker-kun with Ellie... who was amazed 'Baby Ryker' can eat with his teeth.   :)

Monica is offering cool new 'tattoos' as part of her face painting business!   Niko-chan got this cool Spiderman glitter tattoo.

Ryker-kun kept putting his arm in Monica's lap and pointing to her painting supplies....  he wanted tattoos like everyone else!

 

He admired them all night.  He didn't like it when I pulled his sleeves down over them.   :)

I got some tough tattoos as well.  :)   Ghostbusters & a sparkly unicorn.   Executive style!

Here comes trouble

Yup.... we can reach inside of drawers now.  Sigh.

Milk Screams

The milk is going to take how long to warm up?!?!?

AHHH!!!

AAAAHHHHHH!!!  

AAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA!
 

AAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAAAAA!  (Neil mentioned that he matches his shirt.)

Ahhhh... milk.

Mommy & Niko Day

 

Niko-chan is on Spring Break this week from school.  He is attending 'Break Camp' for those of us that have to work....  but I took today off of work so we could spend the day together.  It isn't often we get one-on-one time to just have fun.  I need to do this more often!
 

We went to the video game store first.... where he begged for a Yoshi game.
 

He was stoked for McDonald's..... I try NOT to take him here, but it was cold and gloomy outside and this McDonald's has an indoor playground.
 

He played for over an hour!

Then we went to a movie.  We watched Mr. Peabody & Sherman.  It was weird seeing a cartoon based on characters older than me!

Planet Comic-Con

Here we are getting ready for our adventure!    First Con of the season.

Thor.

Niko's favorite part of the Con.... the Lego booth.

This was my favorite costume of the Con.   There is a little girl inside this homemade Lego costume!

We ran into Gooch!

Shoulder-rides from Daddy.

Niko was so excited to see the Ghostbuster.

I was so excited to see Sailor Mars & Sailor Uranus!

And Kaylee from FireFly!

Annnnndddd.... Niko is bored.

On the way out, we ran into another Thor and some weird 300 guy.   Notice Ryker's excitement.

St. Patrick's Day Parade

The fact is, Niko's only green shirt is his Green Lantern shirt.... nerd on.  Here is Niko with his class before they went on a St. Patrick's Day Parade to give cookies to the local business owners. 

PIKA-CHUUUUU SHHHHOOOOOOOOOE

I'm coming to get you!!!!!

YES.....  I have been waiting to put these on Ryker-kun!    :)

And Niko wanted a photo with his baby.
