Nicholas loves to walk behind the wagon for a bit before riding.  This time he is pushing Jordan.

First thing in his mouth of course is the mash potatoes.

Nicholas fell in love with the witch that sings, dances, and twirls around we bought for Halloween.  He was frightened at first but soon warmed up to it since Daddy started calling it Nana.  Nicholas is constantly looking up where she sits.  Nicholas was in front of the real Nana and Daddy goes where's Nana and he looked right at the witch.  Pap Pap & Daddy get a kick out of it every single time.  Nicholas picks her up and carries her around and gives her kisses.

Nicholas is content and getting a lot of enjoyment out of his book.


Nicholas has figured out how to push the button to get the music and lights to go.  Before he would throw the book because it stopped playing.

Nickie captured a pic on her phone of Jordan & Nicholas waking Grandma up for the day.  Mommy & Daddy got to sleep an extra for minutes.  Thanks Nickie!
