Grandma & The Inflatable Witch

Delaney, Grandma & The Witch

Imagine the surprise of my little anklebiters when Grandma stopped by tonight. They haven't seen her much lately so the excitement was incredible. She had dinner with us and brought them a special Halloween present- a blow up inflatable witch for outside the house. So here are some photos of the kids hanging out with Grandma and the Inflatable Witch! We love you grandma and it was great to see you!!! Muaaaaah

My Pink Fans!!!!

Natalie and Delaney are huge fans of the singer Pink. So here they are performing "So what" - I love this video!!!!

To Grandma, From Della

Delaney wanted me to post this photo for Grandma because she wanted to let her know that although its not her first day of school, she is working on the letter "P" and "Purple" begins with P so she wore a "P"urple Outfit today :) Love you Grandma. Love Delaney

First Days of School

Ok, I have been slacking here! I did take photos on the first day of school, but the kids all started a different day so I wanted to wait until I had all of the photos to post them. Natalie is still home with me, but the others are off and about and I'm truly enjoying my time with MiMi. Looking forward to spending the Fall with my beautiful baby out walking and enjoying the leaves falling and the crisp morning air. So here they are, the first photos of school! Enjoy and I'll be back this weekend with some lovely Fall-ish photos!

To my mom, with love.....

Of course, she has been on me about changing my blog. Why shouldn't she right? So I really havent' had too much to report because of this all-consuming studying process, but I will take a time out to post some fabulous photos for my mom.

My lovely niece Luca came to Boston for a visit (although for a sad reason, but nonetheless she was still here! I couldn't help but absolutely fall madly head over heals in love with her and want her back.......quickly!!!!!

back to studying for now, but I just wanted to make my momma smile......I love you mom and I'll try to update this more often! Love you!

I know, I know, its about time

I haven't had much of a chance to post lately with all the studying and whatnot going on over here. The summer is in full swing and the kids are loving it! The lake, the beach, the parks, and BBQs. The kids are loving it and I'm just happy that the weather has been cooperating this week. Its been sunny and breezy and just, well, nice.

Last week we did the concerts on the lake, and went to Jamie's party over the weekend. the kids had a blast. Brendan took such good care of Natalie in the pool (it was so adorable to see how protective he was of her) and Sam and Jamie had so much fun together (cousins & best friends)....Delaney played with the dogs for the most part (she is usually petrified, but I swear she is only scared when Natalie starts screaming) and Natalie (who was supposed to stay home, but went after everyone promised they'd keep the dogs on leashes and under strict supervision) had a ball with her godfather, Cleber. It is adorable how they just love each other! He was even jumping like a bunny across the lawn with her. Cute stuff.

So here are a few photos from the weekend. I hope you enjoy!

Finally Graduation Day!

The day has finally come- the day I have worked so hard for! I am so happy to be done with school and have my nursing degree! This has been a long time coming and I am so happy that my mom, dad, husband, cousin Catherine and all my kiddos were there to be my cheering squad. It was an awesome day and I am now onto my next obstacle....the boards!
