I say the same thing every year, but I can’t believe my oldest baby is this old already!
His favorite things right now (or should I say the only thing he cares about at all) are trains. He has quite an imagination too. He can make anything into a train – a toy snake, plates, straws, cars, remote controls, boxes. If an object can’t be a train in his mind, it will always still have something to do with trains – it will be something to fix a train or for a train driver to use, etc. Its seriously all he thinks about!
To celebrate, first we opened presents. We didn’t get him any trains, so he wasn’t too enthused. He was pretty excited about the new bike he picked out, but claims that it wasn’t a birthday present since it wasn’t wrapped up. 
I beg to differ. We had dinner at Red Robin and then took him to a different toy store to let him get something with the money he got from his great grandma. You guessed it – he bought a train.
This face is what he does now when I ask him to smile for me:
Last Sunday we had his birthday dinner at my mom’s, so thought I would add a couple of those pics as well.
And I can’t leave this rascal out either She loves pushing the buttons on my camera which is the only way I can get a pic out of her.
Nicholas got better at shootin hoops.
