Nicholas appears to be getting more comfortable with us and the dogs. We know this because he is now seeing how much he can get away with....just like any 3 year-old. He is also saying new words nearly everyday and making us laugh or say, "Did he just do that??"
Today he said "cookie" as we were snacking on Nilla Wafers after we gave him his bath. Today we started the "bed time procedure" a little later.
Before we started we all played upstairs. We had some Bugs Bunny and Animaniac cartoons on and Lisa read him a story and we ran around with the dogs...all in the hopes of getting him tired out and ready for bed....well this strange combination of stimulating activities must have done the trick....we put him down for bed and he was asleep in less than 10 minutes.....a new "N.A.B.W.R." (Nicholas Aronin Bedtime World Record)
Here are some more pictures....some older ones from our trip that have never been seen!!
These are some of the "Nannies" that took care of Nicholas. They posed for this picture after they said goodbye to him for the last time. One Nanny told us that she raised him from a baby....they seemed sad to see him go, but very happy he was being adopted. We owe these ladies a lot of gratitude for taking care of our son for over three years!
Daddy and Nicholas going for walk one of our last few days in Kiev. This was very close to our apartment.
Nicholas helping Grandpa Bruncke install the new ceiling fan in his room while Dad makes sure he doesn't fall off the step ladder!
Typical kid...more interested in playing with the box than all toys that used to be inside it...
