Nieko's first Birthday



Nieko is ONE today!
It all started in church last year, I remember it so well, it does not seem like that long ago. We even went out for lunch after church, and then we went home. Rudi worked for a little bit while Tys took a nap. Then Rudi's parents came to pick up Tys and Rudi and me headed to the birthing center at 5pm. It seemed like the contractions had slowed way down. And I wasn't in that much pain. But at 6.30 I started to feel pressure. 15 minutes later I was holding a beautiful, tiny, slippery little boy, Nieko.

What blessing he has been this past year. He was and still is such a sweet baby! And now he's one. He just learned how to crawl and he's starting to "talk". He plays so sweet with Tys, they truly are friends.

We had a fun party to celebrate his birthday on Sunday (yesterday). We kept it small, just family. It was really fun and relaxing. The "big" boys played so sweet and they even got to go into the hottub! They had a blast!
