Niko’s First REAL New Years Eve

Posted on 01/04/201804/19/2025 by Mark

A few minutes before midnight on New Years Eve, I woke up; thanks to our neighbors who were doing fireworks.  When I saw that Nina was also awake, she told me it was about 5 minutes before 2018.  So, I looked at the baby camera and Niko was laying down but his eyes were open.

I really wanted him to see the fireworks, so without turning any lights on, I got Niko and the three of us watched fireworks from our bedroom window.  He didn’t scream or cry at all; probably because he was half asleep.

I enjoyed telling him what was happening and why; even if didn’t quite understand, I mean, he is only 19 months old.  He turned 20 on Tuesday.  He was imitating my sound effects for the fireworks.

It was the best New Years Eve as I was with my two favorite people in the world.  A few minutes later, I put Niko back in the crib for sleep; still without turning any lights on.
