3rd and 5th birthday party!

Before we get to the party, here is a bit of kids' manipulation of each other:
Mikica locked Nikolas out of his room, so Nikolas said, 'Mama is giving me cookies-I'll eat them all....open the door if you want any!'. It worked. Later, Mikica pulled the same trick on Sonja. All he had to say was 'cookies!'

Baka came for a visit over the birthday week.  We invited the entire Nikolas's class and a few baby moms to our backyard where after a long week of rain we had the luck of sunshine!  Magic Mike stopped by to do some tricks and make awesome balloon animals and objects for the kids (the poodle and the motorcycle were amazing!).  Nikolas seemed a bit self-conscious in the middle of a large crowd, Michael was a little more relaxed than Nikolas, and Sonja had a blast, always in the center of the crowd, as apparent from the photos.
