Wishing for summer...

Ava decided to pretend it was summer today. I really couldn't argue with her, I know I am sick of being cooped up in the house and sick of everyone being sick. Gia is now on her 3rd antibiotic since late Dec. She has double ear infections. I hope this one does the trick and I hope that groundhog does NOT see his shadow in a few weeks~!

Group Shot...All together now...Say Cheese!

Ava asked to borrow my camera today. Then she methodically set up her subjects. "That is their Grandma in the wheel chair mom." She is such a creative kid which can get her into a lot of messy trouble, but I am begining to see that she needs to be cut a little slack because she is a little artist.

Happy New Year friends! I hope the new year keeps you and yours happy & healthy!!!
Ava made it to midnight!!! what a trooper!

In the meadow we can build a SNOWMAN!

Ava and Tony built the cutest snowman today!!!!! I used my old camera as my new one needed charging, hence the pink snow!

Christmas Morning 2007

The girls enjoyed all of their gifts. Some more than others and Gia is still at the age where the paper/boxes are more fun. Just realized I have no pictures of Gia opening her gifts! Doh! She was too busy running around.

Christmas Eve 2007

A few shots from our get together with my family at our house.

Holiday Shots

These were taken December 22nd, at our house and at my in-laws. We got together early to open our gifts to avoid rushing all day on Christmas day.


I love this picture! Ava looks so calm and quiet and Gia is screaming like a banshee!!!

The two of them on our kitchen island. Gia holding one of her many toothbrushes.

How cute it this little one?!

This cradle was made by Tony's late Nonno Chuck. Papa Tom refinished it and Nonna Yo sewed some cute new bedding. This is supposed to be for her baby dolls, however she fits in it quite nicely too!
Proof that Ava can take a bad picture!
