When I spend extended periods with Niko it always reminds me I&#8217;m like a six year old with a credit card and drivers license. It will be sad when he turns 10 and doesn&#8217;t want to play with me anymore.<\/p>\n<p>Today we tried painting. This was exciting but made even more exciting when Sumo ran through the paint and we had to chase him around the house trying to contain the damage. In retrospect, I should have seen it coming. I&#8217;m hoping Jul will see it as &#8220;adorable&#8221; and &#8220;artistic&#8221; as opposed to &#8220;aggravating&#8221; and &#8220;destructive.&#8221; Nothing replacing the furniture won&#8217;t fix.\u00c2\u00a0 I finally herded everybody into the bathtub where I had little luck getting the paint off the three of us, but certainly made our white bathtub&#8230;errr&#8230;not white anymore. I put too much bubble bath in the tub, so the bathroom overflowed with paint colored bubbles. Then Niko turned it up a notch by pooping in the tub. Had to be a pretty funny picture. I&#8217;ll leave the rest of the story up to your imagination.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/happyinwater\/1563147063\" class=\"tt-flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2056\/1563147063_e86b58c35b.jpg\" class=\"tt-flickr\" alt=\"Blue\" height=\"500\" width=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/happyinwater\/1564024678\" class=\"tt-flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2135\/1564024678_c2dc8a66f7.jpg\" class=\"tt-flickr\" alt=\"Let the mess begin\" height=\"375\" width=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/happyinwater\/1563140965\" class=\"tt-flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2010\/1563140965_ca1e995136.jpg\" class=\"tt-flickr\" alt=\"More colors\" height=\"375\" width=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/happyinwater\/1563134693\" class=\"tt-flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2164\/1563134693_b550a44cd4.jpg\" class=\"tt-flickr\" alt=\"Masterpiece\" height=\"375\" width=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/happyinwater\/sets\/72157602404358774\/\">More photos&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jul left for the east coast on Thursday for a girls weekend making it a boys weekend here on the west coast.
