The potty diaries – November 30, 2009
Christopher goes potty on the toilet several times daily. This is nothing new for him. What is new: we bought some new chonies (aka underwear), though, to supplement the three pair he previously had. The goal: wear chonies all day even with the threat of accidents. Results: Christopher wore chonies half-day yesterday with no accidents. [...]
My first Thanksgiving
Yesterday was Matteo’s first Thanksgiving. Though the day started with a bit of family drama – extended family drama, not ours – we ended the day with a nice dinner, dessert and bedtime.

I want my daddies
Christopher is at the age where he still loves his daddies “too” much. We hope this stage lasts forever; yet, we know the day will come when we hear, “I hate you”, or “I am not talking to you”. Perhaps, we will just get the silent treatment as if it is some form of punishment. [...]

Matteo is getting so big. He started his military crawl a few weeks ago, and is poised to begin crawling on hands and knees any day now. Though crawling will get him to where he wants to go a bit faster, he manages just fine. The other day, he followed Mike from the family room [...]
Height and weight matters

A window cleaner
Keeping abreast of the latest technology can be quite daunting. Just when you think you have the latest and greatest, something new appears. For months, I have been trying to find just the right video embed tool for our blog. I have posted “test” posts to test each new tool. Currently, we use VIMEO, which [...]
Our little eaters
We are quite fortunate. Both boys love to eat. At 8-months, we are beginning to wonder whether Matteo still wants formula. Feeding him a bottle has been quite a chore lately. Could just be teething…how about a biscuit? Pizza, anyone?
The holiday season is upon us
We ventured out to Concord today. Our mission: get new family portraits (see below picture). The boys did remarkably well, which was surprising since the whole adventure took 2 1/2 hours. While we waited for the photographer to download our photos, we walked the mall. Guess who we saw? Santa. Christopher got a bit excited. [...]
