Nicky on 3 December 2006

Just to bring this blog right up to date, here's a photo of Nicky which we took today. I should also add that today happens to be Kristian's birthday - 33 years young!

Nicky's trail of destruction

You can always tell if Nicky has been in a room. These snaps were taken of him when he was with us in the study one day, like he happens to be at this very moment in time. When he is in this room his usual activities involve pulling books off the shelves, pulling the papers out of the bin, trying to turn the computer off, pulling all our camera, USB cords etc out of the box we keep them in etc etc. After he has been in the room for about 5 minutes it looks like a warzone! This morning after he had had his breakfast he was playing around in the loungeroom. He managed to pull over our shoe rack, leaving shoes scattered everywhere, empty his toy box and leave toys all around the room...pretty soon it was looking like a bomb had hit it too! Hmmm...I have heard that in the toddler years lots of kiddies actually enjoy household tasks such as tidying up...bring it on I say!!

A visit from the Godfather

Peter, our dear friend and Nicky's Godfather, came to visit us recently after attending a conference in Japan. We had a blast hanging out with him (although his Borat impersonation leaves something to be desired!)

Nicky & his Daddy in sepia

Nicky looks rather good in sepia. What do you think?? Oh, and Kristian looks mighty fine too!

Nicky's war face

We call this expression Nicky's "war face". It's hilarious. We like it so much that we've used this photo as the wallpaper on our PC.

Nicky & Cely

Here's some cute snaps of Nicky and Cely taken a few weeks ago.

Raphael's First Birthday Party!

It's been a while since I have put anything on this blog - very remiss of me! I know all you Nicky fans out there must be hanging out for more Nicky news - so here goes! Well, on Sunday 12 November we went to Raphael's First Birthday party. Raphael is Kristian's godson, Nicky's good buddy and the son of our good friends Michael & Virginia. It was a lovely afternoon. Nicky had a ball cruising around and charming people with his winning smile (& personality of course). Suffice to say, he absolutely conked out on the car trip on the way home. It was a big day!
