Pocket Knife

Guy again.

It was good to have Nico back around the place.  I could hear his little stomping feet while I was sleeping this morning.

Joanna wanted to nap right after I got up, so Nico and I had the afternoon to ourselves.  We played with micro machines a little bit, then we went to Toy's R Us to play.  I've never taken him there before by myself, but I wanted to take him to a warm place where he could run around.

He had a lot of fun picking stuff up and putting it back.  Early on we found a kids travel suitcase which happened to have 4 wheels, so Nico took it down and pushed it around the store for most of the time.  We also saw some stuffed dogs, including one that barked and moved when you walked past.  Nico was fascinated.  We did have a little accident where Nico was putting trucks into a wagon and tried to push it, but it was too low and he ended up falling down and the wagon flipped up and bopped him in the mouth.  No lasting harm was done though.

Before we went on our excursion to Toy's R Us, Nico discovered he had pockets, so I let him have my pocket knife to put into them.  He's not quite got the hang of it yet, most of the time he ended up pulling his pants down.  Below is one of his more successful attempts.
