Memorial Day 2007

Yesterday we did the flag cermony as a family and it was fun. Last year we didn't get a picture as a family but sence Larry was there we were able to get one.

Lily and Emma got new swimming suits. They have floaties that you slide in the front and back. They were joking that they had babies in their tummies. Maybe one day when they are married and expecting we can get a picture kinda like this. minus the goggles.

Peter loved putting the goggles on. He looked so cute. I think he looks like a fish with really big eyes.

My sily kids. They just couldn't get enough of the goggles. This is what life is about.

Favorites part 3

One of Lily's favorite things is Peter. Sence the first day she met this little guy she has just been a great big sister.

Emma's favorite friend is none other than Lily. She just loves her even though they fight they are just the best of friends.

Peter is my cleaner. He loves to sweep. Emma was trying to help me out today but Peter wouldn't have it. He was pulling that broom from Emma with a undying passion. It was so funny....

BEES!!!!!

Can I tell you how much I dislike BEES!!!!! They are my second worse bug of all time. Scorpions sealed their first place ranking when we lived in the condo.
Anyway I dislike bees even more, and THIS is why. My poor sweet baby boy GOT STUNG!!!!!!
Peter did such a great job. I was gone and Thomas had the kids in the backyard swimming. Jonathan was in his parents house helping his dad. Thomas ran in and told Jonathan that Peter got stung. Jonathan got Peter and Grandpa Larry knew exactly what to do. He got a credit card and swiped the stinger away. Doing that prevents someone squezzing more of the venom into the skin. I'm so glad that he knew what to do.
Peter was so good about the whole thing. When I asked where his owwy was he would point to it. He's so brave.

Their Favorites 2

This is Lily's first Littlest Pet Shop animal. She absolutely loves them. I have a bunch and I only let her play with them when Peter is sleeping and she just cherishes the times she gets to play with them. (including the little pieces)
Emma's favorite Care Bear is Wish Bear. She came to love this bear after we got the big wish movie. She doesn't call the Care Bear Wish Bear it's Big Wish. She loves this bear and won't let anyone touch her stuffed animal.
Peter Loves the washing machine. I can never get away with loading the washing machine without the help of Peter. He will even take the clean clothes out of the dryer to try and put them back into the washer. He loves to the turn the knob and start it. I really hope he keeps this up.

They just grow up too fast!!!!

Peter grabbed Jonathan's shaver, turned it on, and started using it. He just had the biggest smile on his face. He was just like daddy.

Del Nonni's part 1

I've decieded to do an update of my children at least once a week.
This week I'm going to show one favorite of each of my kids


Peter LOVES the piano. He will sit there for a half hour playing it and singing. He doesn't just hit it like a mad man. He actually plunks at it with his little fingers. It is just too cute.
Lily is just sooooo HAPPY that her first tooth has finally come out. She loves her window. But her big girl tooth has already come up and is sitting pretty far back. I really hope it comes forward. I think I'm going to be investing in braces. OH YAY!!!!
Let me tell you the love affair this little girl has with apples. When ever I buy them she just consumes them like she hasn't eaten in a week. She will eat like 3 in a row. Let me tell you I don't buy them that often, and when I do I buy the really small ones.
