Erin the Prankster

A conversation between me and Erin in the locker room of the YMCA after swimming lessons...
Erin : "Mommy, smell my towel."
Me: "Where?"
Erin: "Right here." (Pointing to a particular spot)
(I smell it.)
Me: "It smells fine. Why?"
Erin: "I wiped my butt with it!" Followed by maniacal laughter.
I laughed too. What else was I to do!

Let it Snow!

The girls begged to go out in the snow on Saturday, so we bundled them up and sent them out for a short while. They are looking forward to go out again when it's a little warmer and are counting down the days until nana comes back from her Florida vacation and takes them sled riding!

Christmas Day

We spent Christmas morning at home with the grandparents coming over to share the morning with us as well. After spending some time playing and cleaning up, we headed up to Cleveland to visit George's family. Again the girls enjoyed playing with all of their cousins. It was fun to see a huge circle of kids playing their Nintendo DS's together. Erin loved the cupcakes that were larger than her head!

Christmas Eve


Giovanni opened his gifts from us on Christmas Eve while we were waiting to go to Aunt Carol and Uncle John's house. It was so much fun to see how excited he was to open gifts. We enjoyed a lot of good food and company at the Capocci home. The kids loved spending time with their cousins, and Giovanni was fascinated with the nativity. He kept asking everyone to pick him up so he could see it. We even had Aaron on the web cam from Paris for the traditional cutting of the trifle.When we arrived home, the kids got to open their traditional Christmas pajamas. They all looked so cute and were definitely ready for bed!

How to Watch Football

The best way to watch football, with a pizza picnic in front of the TV!
Note:We realized that we watch a lot of football when Sammie referred to intermission during a show as half time!
