Not A Baby

Nicholas is Smart

He knows...

• where the food is kept.
• to make a beeline there when the phone rings.
• he's cute.
• to make sweetsie faces to the ladies at church.
• how to make his brothers laugh and keep them laughing.

Nicholas is Strong

He can...

• push his highchair across the kitchen and climb up into it to get on the counters.
• shake his pack-n- play until it rocks across the room.
• cling fast to a grocery cart when I try to get him out.
• hold his own with Zachary.
• lift the dining room table from underneath while making manly grunting noises.

Nicholas Talks

He says...

• "Yourwelkuk," when I say "thank you."
• "Brixfix," in the morning when I get him up.
• "Crack-koor," when he wants a snack.
• "Whazzat?" all day long.
• "Bruddas!" when he is looking for playmates.

No, Nicholas is no longer a baby...sigh...
