Maco and Neeto

Marco couldn't believe his good fortune that Nikos came to spend the evening with us this week. And Niko didn't seem at all worried that the last time he stayed over, he woke up to a little sister. :)

Nikos showed his t-ball prowess by whacking the ball and taking off running, "RUN BASES!" Marco squeals and chases him until Niko slides into "home" and make his own call, "SAFE!" Marco slides too of course, but it's more like someone being shot. First an awkward fall to his knees, followed by a belly flop and lots of laughing.

Niko definitely felt the pressure of eating with Marco. Jeff and I kept saying, "Look at Marco eating. Wow." (That part wasn't fake, it really is amazing.) Niko kept up, saying "Me too." Don't tell his parents but I let him dip everything in ketchup including crackers and a cookie. Ha. Jeff almost lost it.

They had a great time, got filthy, ate hot dogs, took a bath and went down very easily in the same room. Silence, until through the monitor, Jeff and I heard...

"Night night Maco."

"Night night Neeto."

Silence.
