S.I.X.

Micah! You are 6…S.I.X.! I can’t even stand it. I am having a hard time remembering the times I held you as a baby and I want so badly to stop time so that I can memorize those special moments.  I thought about your actual BIRTH day today and no matter how the years may pass I can still remember every step it took to get you here and the absolute joy you brought to Daddy and me. Here are 6 (I had to limit myself) things that make you “Micah” today…
1.       Your favorite thing to do…STILL… is to play ninjas with Daddy. So much that we have had to designate nights of the week because Daddy can’t handle getting beat up every night!
2.       The way you laugh hysterically out loud while watching a movie no matter where we are makes us want to be just as carefree as you are.
3.       Your favorite playmate is still Kapri, wherever you are, there she is.
4.       You are sensitive when it comes to feelings and a bit dramatic when you get hurt…but you in turn are sympathetic to those who are sad and help those who are hurt.
5.       YOU LOVE THE CAMERA. You love to be recorded and then watch yourself over and over and over again.
6.       You are becoming more adventurous with trying new foods, new activities and less timid of the unknown.
You have been one of the best blessings that we have received and we wish we could hit the pause button on you… but at the same time we are so excited to see what’s in store for you.


We love you Son.


We just got your school pics a few days ago, I still haven't stopped choking up every time I see it.

Hello & Goodbye to Sum•mer

sum·mer 1 ˈsəmər/ noun 1 .  the warmest season of the year, in the northern hemisphere from June to August and in the southern hemisphere from December to February. I just wanted to give myself a second to really think about this thing called summer. Anyone else think this definition is just a little bit vague? It's that time of year where we get all excited to have ZERO schedule, endless electronics, the chance to travel and cram in all of the fun you planned for all year long. Then when this so called "summer" ends, you feel bamboozled, like someone just waved that 4th of July pie you went to that party to specifically eat, right in front of your face only to look...not eat. Like seriously, it was here, right in front of my face, and now... it's gone. Now, now we pack lunch every night, we get our homework in (which I don't even understand), we figure out which parent is going to be the taxi for the day, we actually have to ...

Giving Thanks...Kapri's Surgery and Recovery.

You know that sinking, useless, hopeless feeling you get when one of your children are sick or hurt? Those feelings were almost more than I could take when I went to take Kapri in for her 15 month check up on Tuesday morning and ended up in surgery Tuesday night... A little over two weeks ago Kapri began to limp on her right leg and after noticing I kept an eye on it and it would differ day to day.  Sometimes it wasn't even noticeable as she would run back and forth from her brother or just in her play.  Other times is was so noticeable I found myself holding her more than I ever had (after she learned how to walk).  I decided that it was time to call the Dr. and see what his thoughts were.  So Friday (18th) we got her in. The typical questions like, did she fall, was she pushed at school, does she have a temp, etc.  Since NONE of these symptoms seemed to be the case he wanted me to just keep her on Motrin and since she had her 15 month check up on Tuesday (...

Happy Easter

We had a wonderful Easter this year, especially with Micah as he is fully aware of these characters who come and leave gifts throughout the year. This year the Easter Bunny left a trail of eggs in the hallway leading up to a candy filled Easter basket (I cringe thinking of the next dentist visit!).  Matt and I loved hearing his little feet run through the hall and then to hear him gasp each time he found an egg was too cute!   We recently became members of a new church and decided to go to mass there (we usually drive across town to our old church to go to special holiday masses with mom and dad). After mass we headed to Mom and Dad's and had an AMAZING feast! Micah was bouncing off the walls with the amount of candy he had eaten, and once again, Mom out did herself with the kids' baskets she made. Here are a few pictures!
