2008-07-01: Niklas celebrated Canada Day with the traditional lunch of yogurt. Just trust me on that, don't look it up. For any pictures you want to print, just right click on them and select "save target as".

This is pretty much the dictionary definition of looking suspicious.

Niklas loves yogurt despite its inherent awfulness.

Spoons are also good.

2008-07-03: Here are some pictures of Niklas slaking his never ending thirst for maritime history. For any pictures you want to print, just right click on them and select "save target as".

Niklas tries to usurp Neptune's power. His goal? Six foot swells in the bathtub.

Unfortunately, Niklas's battle with sea-god ran long and he had to leave for a snack.

Snack!

Niklas enjoys the wind so much that it brings out the crazy face.

"Yeah, you better run!"

Niklas and rubble, together at last.

2008-07-20: Niklas has been busy entertaining lately. So busy, in fact, that I haven't been able to take any pictures. How does Niklas being busy excuse my photographic negligence? Shut it. Luckily, the Godfather was around to pick up the slack.

Niklas is excited for a chance to bust up the east end.

Niklas shows off both his tan and the frontloader he got from the Godfather.

It looks like some mischief is about to happen.

The world's smallest drawbridge welcomes the world's pound for pound champion of destruction

"These walls can't hold me."

Niklas and the Godfather as allies.

Niklas and the Godfather in the midst of a tickle war.

Not being the greatest at tickling, Niklas escalates things a bit.

Here we are at the lighthouse. You can see our house from here.

In the background, you can see some restrooms on the right. The wife (or particular lady friend, I don't really know their situation) of the guy behind Niklas had just gone into the restroom causing Niklas to shout "Bathroom! Pee-Pee!" repeatedly.

Is Niklas enjoying this boat ride? No. No he is not.

Here we are at Church Bay. Thankfully, the blinding light reflected by my torso didn't ruin the shot.

Bubbles!

Here's Niklas grabbing a quick nap.

Niklas thanks the Godfather for coming out.

2008-07-27: Here are some pictures that feature the recent Mega-Powers summit. Also featured? Unrelated stuff. For any pictures you want to print, just right click on them and select "save target as".

Niklas enjoys dressing up and then smashing things with a paper towel roll.

Niklas is living the dream, what with his mommy, his blanky, the vacuum cleaner attachment and whatnot.

Here's Niklas trying to trade me some stuffed animals for something most likely cookie related.

Here are Niklas and Aaron having fun. Note that for most of his visit here, we put Aaron to work.

"Could you wait until I get some pants before taking a picture? No? I see."

Apparently, you don't get the same type of tan in Chicago that you get in Bermuda.
