It actually looks like he knows what he's doing here, huh? Yea.. no. He does like to sit on it and push the buttons though!Godfather Mark and Aunt Shelly gave this to Niko for his birthday. He likes watching Diego and Dora talk to him on it. We are so proud of him "playing" his first videogame..... :)
I was wondering how long it would take him to figure this out. We have a step stool in the bathroom for Niko and he figured out that he can bring the stool into the kitchen and reach the stuff on the counter.He specifically wanted the birthday cake on the counter.... that's the Grandma Morris in him for sure!
I have poison ivy.... again. I'm on steroids right now and we will see if that makes any difference. Booooo......
Niko is saying, "OOOOHHHHH" like the aliens in Toy Story.
He ate all the eyeballs - they were sugar cookies. We had a small party at the house last night for Niko's real birthday. Abuelo, Abuela, Aunt Maria and Aunt Shelly came over for pizza and cake. Mmmmmm...Niko's big birthday party will be on Sunday! :)
Today is Niko's birthday - I can't believe he's two already!!! Above is my first attempt at the alien cake for his birthday party on Sunday. The one on Sunday will be twice as big.Not to bad... kinda sloppy, but not bad for my first go at it. His eyes are sugar cookies.

I made this cake using both yellow and chocolate cake. I didn't have a cake pan big enough for the cake I needed so I decided to make a big cake out of two smaller cakes.
I cut out the shape and "glued" the two halves together with regular frosting.
I then frosted the cake with my green frosting. This took a LOT longer than I though to get the pan cleaned up. Next time I would frost the whole chocolate side with white frosting. The chocolate cake wanted to fall apart on me.
All done! The eyes are sugar cookies.
The kids loved swinging on the hammock.
We brought Niko's slide outside for the party.
Ooohhh!!!! Sprinkler number for Niko's cake! I will be posting how I made this cake later.
Niko got help from Monica's kids, Ellie and Ty opening presents. He loves playing with them!
Niko had so many presents he didn't even know what to do with himself! Thank you again to everyone who came over and joined us for a BEAUTIFUL afternoon!
