We are a married couple who adopted our little Russky, Nikita {aka Nicky, Nicky noodle, little man, Nikoli, the Nickster, crazy dude, goofball, puppy love, etc...you get the picture!} from St Petersburg, Russia four years ago. Join us as we stumble through the joys and perils of parenthood, while our son teaches us a few things along the road...

Daddy's Birthday

Daddy's birthday was this past Saturday, so we decided to make a bigger-than-usual deal out of it, in preparation of Nicky's birthday party we're having this coming weekend. I got a big slice of cake (figured it was less of a threat than me making a whole cake, which Kris & I would most definitely needlessly consume) and put some candles in it (the tricky, relighting ones). We sang "Happy Birthday", and Nicky was so excited to help Daddy blow out the candles and was so captivated by the "moke" ("smoke" in Nicky-speak) that he didn't even notice that they relit! It was pretty comical once he finally noticed the candle was ready to go again! After cake, Daddy opened his presents, with Nicky's help of course. I still don't think that Nicky realized that it was Daddy's birthday, and not his own, but all in all, it was good practice & Nicky will be fully prepared for his own shindig this weekend!
