Nicco Hinkley’s Pictures.

Nicco is telling a story. John is trying out Nicco’s stethoscope . Everybody loves Nicco.

There’s more presents. More Thomas the Train items. And some sandbox toys. Laura is helping with the opening.

I got a picture of the Santora side at Nicco’s party. Fun was had by all.

Nicco really likes his new book. He did tear out some of the popups, though.

He wanted a banana the other day. I told him there were none left. He didn’t like that. There was one on the counter so he knew I was teasing him. I asked him where it was and he said, “Behind you.” Surprising observations and speech.

Nicco got a cool popup book from Uncle Joe and Aunt Kim (and family). Oh, and the chair he is sitting to cam e from them as well. It has a race car on it. He likes it. And now he calls his soft “Cars” chair is the “kah-key.” Oh well. Wonder where he got that word from?

Nothing better than cake after a ride on the train. He didn’t make too much of a mess. He likes everyone to sing happy birthday to him…..and he even blew out his own candle.

Here he is with Mommy waiting to ride on the train at Steamtown, in Scranton, PA. We weren’t sure how he would react so we only took the short 1/2 hr ride. He really liked it so we can take the long one next time.

Here’s a picture inside the restored cars.

What fun!

He got more Thomas the Tank Engine accessories to add to his ever-growing collection. He has a Cranky crane and some more track and trains.

He used to say “nana” for banana. Only because Grama is Nana. But now he just recently added the “ba.” So now it’s “BA na-na.”

A little late on the pics. But I had a bunch to post. This year he actually opened the presents himself. Some of them are on the new list of items from China that are recalled because of the lead paint that was used on them. Joy!

It rained one day and the lawn was pretty full of water. The drain spout made a puddle. And Nicco had his shoes on. Well, he took his trucks over there and made a mess. But it looks like he enjoyed himself.
