Anime wig fun


First and foremost, I love costumes. I have hundreds of accessories... like this awesome foam anime girl wig. This is what happens when you work at a toy store for YEARS and YEARS... you buy weird things when they go on clearance. Got this beauty for $2.12 several years back.

I also have a blonde bell-shaped foam wig and an Elvis styled foam wig. Sweet. Can't wait to bring those out around Halloween for him!

Shelly's Shower

Niko hangin' with one of his besties, Alyssa.

Tracy served as Game Warden for Shelly's Shower. Thanks so much Tracy for all of your help! This shower wouldn't have been nearly as much fun without you!

Lots of fun Bacon themed items.

Niko of course had to help Shelly unwrap her presents. Any event that has presents is automatically a birthday.... his birthday. Ugh.

Shelly got some... uh.... post-wedding items at the shower. Hehhhhehehe.... sinner.

Frosting cookies




Niko and I have been baking up a storm the last few days for Shelly's Wedding Shower on Saturday. We made the sugar cookies yesterday (I wasn't able to get picts because it was super messy and I was up to my elbows in flower!) Then we spent most of the night last night frosting them.

I would say we have around 300-350 cookies ready to be packaged up tonight. I am also making 2 pecan cakes tonight for the shower. I baked the cake last night and I'll make the frosting tonight.

Whew!

Pre-School!!!

Niko's school supply list came home last night. Wow. He's "graduating" his 2-year-old room at the end of the month and heading into the 3-year-old room. He turns 3 next month and he's fairly potty trained now so he's being moved to the next room as part of the "school year" schedule.

I must admit it will be weird for both of us. He's only known the 2-year-old room since starting at school so this will be a big change for him. I will REALLY miss his teacher, Mrs Elisha... I love her and she helped us with the potty training thing.

Niko is pretty much potty trained now except for at night. Although I will be honest.... I do put a diaper on him if we are driving in the car for a while or if I think we might get stuck in traffic.

Video Games


**Crappy Cell Phone photos ahead!** After dinner last night we went to GameStop. Niko was SOOO excited to play games... but all of his button smashing just got him to an error message... not that he noticed.

Ride'em Cowboy!



I took Niko to Chuck E Cheese this weekend since Daddy had to work. Of course the pizza is nasty, but we had a great time playing the games! :)
