New Things Everyday

So I did my daily race today to pick up Nicholas from school. Actually it was not my normal race since I was racing to beat the rain. I certainly do not want to have to run in the rain carrying Nicholas to the car. We made it home and it was only sprinkling. We got in the house and the rain started pouring. It's the first time that it has downpoured when Nicholas was old enough to really understand what's going on. The whole time we were eating our quesadillas tonight, he watched in rain. I would tell him BaBoom when it thundered and then he would come back and say BaBooo.

Nicholas did the absolute cutest thing tonight though. I was watching Dancing with the Stars from a couple of nights ago, and if I haven't mentioned it before, he loves to dance by himself or with me. One of the songs that they danced to was more like a waltz, slow but with a really good beat. Nicholas had been playing on the floor and dancing sporadically while I was watching the show. Then when the slow song came on, he danced his little heart out putting his arms out in the air like an airplane and then turning in circles. He used the entire living room floor to dance to the entire song. Although, there were a few times that he did so many circles he made himself dizzy and fell over. Then, it was so funny when he tried to pick himself back up and continue doing circles but he was still dizzy so he would fall back down.

A big thank you, by the way, to Aunt Sherrie for the Easter card to Nicholas. He loves the card!! He keeps opening and closing the card. Everytime he hears it he smiles and then giggles!
