A new "DO", 7 Weeks, and smiles!

We have been pretty busy the past couple of weeks. We have had quite a few visitors too. Thanks to Aunt Ali and Uncle PW! We had a wonderful time with you and Joseph is still talking about the train park adventure and feeding the ducks.

Then, we had mom-mom and pop-pop to come and visit! We had a wonderful time with them too and Joseph, especially, loved the trip! He is still talking about Transportation Day with you guys at his school. And, he is also talking about his new haircut that you guys were able to see too.

Here are a couple of the pics :-) and, yes, mommy did shed a tear when he came home from the haircut... he looks so grown up! And, no sign of the curls yet and it's been 2.5 weeks...


So here we are in February, and all four of us are pretty much in shock that it's already FEBRUARY! Giuliana is growing like a weed but still pretty fussy a lot of the time. However, she especially loves to smile when she is not fussing. And she loves bathtime! She is 7 weeks already and holding herself up like such a big girl. She is sleeping well at night and eating like a champ (well, when mommy remembers NOT TO EAT COW'S MILK PRODUCTS). Here are some pics from the past few weeks:



I like the colors on Joseph's soccer ball too:

4 Weeks Old Today

Hello everyone! We are here! It's been a few weeks since we have written but we have been pretty busy bees!

First, update on Joseph: He is back at school. He is talking up a storm and just amazes us daily with his vocabulary and thought-processes. And, just in case you were wondering... he is still the most amazing child-eater we know of! Just the other day, he put down his ice-cream and wanted our edamame that Mike had picked up with our Thai dinner. Really just too funny! He is also making up all sorts of songs; everything can be a song. And we love it!

Next update: The GIG! She is growing like a weed! When she was born, she weighed 6.12. She came home weighing 6.3. By the next week she weighed 7.9!!! And by Jan. 7 she weighed in at 8.6! So, needless to say, mommy is making lots of yummy milk and Giuliana loves it. She is sleeping better... we are up to about 3-4 hour pattern (we shy away from the word "schedule" in our house.

Now... for some pics!
