Just some pics been meaning to post. I wanna give my cousin Tara a shout out as she of course took them (tarapolcarophotography.blogspot.com) As usual they are amazing. He was 4 months old in these pictures.

Well October 19th was a busy day for us. Michael went to his first birthday party for his good friend miss Ava (Mommy's friend Lynne's daughter) she turned 1 on the 19th! Antonio aslo had a birthday that day he turned 3. But as we only have one camera I dont have any pictures of his at Grandpa Bob's petting zoo (where they went while I was at the party). I didnt get to stay long as it was roundind nap time but I here Ava slapped her little face right down in the cupcake she had! (she loves sweets)!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AVA AND ANTONIO!! WE LOVE YOU!!

Just some cute pictures I took yesterday! Sooo the last week and half have been fun to say the least, last Monday (October 6th, 2008) Michael got his first tooth on the bottom and on Wednesday ( October 8th, 2008) he got one right next to it! I cannot as usual complane with him the only time he really gets cranky is when I am late with the Tylenol. His Dr. today told me the next ones to come in are the top 4 and it looks like it will be soon (please pray for me =). Today was his 6 months appt. He weighed 18lbs 4 oz. --75%, length was 27" also-- 75% and his head is in the 97%!! He has big brains! He got 4 shots and stopped crying as soon as I let his arms go. My big boy! I love you and thank you for being so good to mommy!

So Monday (October 13th, 2008) our good friends Vinney, April, and Antonio came over for a cookout on the grill (minus the eating out part cuz we already put all the outdoor stuff away for the winter ;). So much fun!

So this past Sunday (October 12th, 2008). We started our Mauro family dinners again. (We take them off during the summers) We went to nana's and papa's house for an amazing dinner of pork chops and mac n cheese (nana of course did all the cooking) and then papa took all of us thats right all 15 of us to the pumpkin patch. We went on a hay ride, did a corn maze and had popcorn and cider! It was right in the middle of our Indian summer we usually get so it was 75 and sunny. Everytime we have gone in the past it is drizzle and chilly so it was a nice change! And of course with all of the aunts, uncles and nana and papa around mommy and daddy got a nice break! Thanks for a great day Mauro's!

HAPPY BITHDAY TO ME!!! Yesterday was Michaels 1/2 birthday he was 6 months old!!

Yesterday on a wim April called me and said why dont you and your mom come in for pedicures today. And we did! It was my first Saturday off in 2-3 months and Daddy and Vinney where off 4-wheeling, so it was perfect. Dont our toes look great and we look happy and relaxed thanks April!

Ok so I am in big trouble, on Wednesday we went to an appointment, and as we are sitting in the waiting room there were three women, and of course all of them were googling and cooing all over my boy ( I have no idea why ;). After a few minutes they politely went back to reading their magazines. Well my boy not liking the fact that no one was looking at him anymore ( I have no idea why and where he gets that from!) He started to lay it on thick with the cheese smiles and a couple of coo's for good measure. Well all of that to no avail he soon buried his head into my chest and started to scream (not cry), scream as much as his little lungs would allow! Don't let his size fool you his "little" lungs pack quite a punch. After a couple minutes he slowly peaked his little head out from under my chest and with a pout on his face peaked over to where those three women were sitting, and of course they are all now looking up and over at him. WELL let me tell you he put that cheesy smile back on his face and started to tell those women a funny little story! At least he thought it was funny! HELP ME I AM IN TROUBLE AND I CANT GET ENOUGH!!!! ---- LOL
