Fall is Here


Okay...okay...I know I've been terrible about updating the blog. Thanks, Mike, for reminding me. LOL!

Things in Delaware are good. We are starting to settle into the new routine now that CJ and Casey are both in school. Case is facing midterms next week, but I'm confident that he will do great. He sure studies 10x harder than I ever did. CJ still loves school. He seems to be making a few friends and he really loves his teachers. I think Case and I both feel confident that this preschool was a good choice for him.

CJ has gone into full big brother mode and is really getting excited about the baby. He wasn't even jealous when we received the first present for the baby from Aunt Cherie. Two adorable outfits- one for Christmas and one Guess sweatsuit for everyday wear (with the cutest booties ever). He was actually excited and grew even more excited when I gave him the ribbon off the package to use for his finish line. He loves races right now. We play finish line at least 10 times a day.

I am really ready to have the baby even though we probably have 4-6 weeks to go. (Okay, so I'm hoping I go a bit early.) Casey and I still have lots of things to do to get ready though so it's probably good we've got a few weeks. We're taking it one day at a time.

This weekend we are hoping to hit the pumpkin patch on Sunday. CJ and Mama are going with Uncle Johnny to the Wilmington Train on Saturday so Daddy can study. It should be a great fall weekend. We are also counting the days until Aunt Cece and Uncle Nick arrive just in time for Halloween.

We miss you all and I will definitely get pics posted after this weekend. The pic above is Casey and CJ on a ferry ride out to Fort Delaware.

Hello from Philly

Hello and Happy Holidays from the City of Brotherly Love! Its almost New Year's resolution time and one of mine is to maintain a blog for all our of friends and family who don't get to see our little guy on a daily basis (and for those of you that do too). CJ is ready for Christmas- although Santa is not his favorite as you can see. I'm not sure who is worse at peeking at packages though, CJ or Casey. We were too excited to wait so we've had a Christmas tree up since the weekend after Thanksgiving. We kept the unbreakable ornaments on the lower part of the tree, which has been good since he likes to take them off and throw them to his daddy. He's so smart and observant. I'm just amazed by him. He loves to learn and seems (to me) to be very mechanically minded since he can unscrew or take apart anything you put in front of him. He has an infectious grin and a laugh that reminds you what living is about. He likes to talk all time and he LOVES to dance. He's ju...

Mystic, CT

We had a great time in Mystic, CT last weekend for Father's Day. We spent Saturday at the Mystic Seaport, a little reanactment community right on the water. We even got to see a replica of the Amistad (the original was either scrapped or sunk). That part was neat, but very sad to see the conditions those men endured. CJ loved the water and kept trying to walk onto all the boats he saw (even the yachts that had just docked for lunch). He really enjoyed driving the ship. We then had lunch at a great little inn right on the water- Seaman's Inn. It was wonderful. On Sunday we went to Mystic Aquarium. CJ really loved it. His favorite was the buluga whales as you can see from the picture. He laughed and oohed and ahhed. It was a great weekend. Now we are just gearing up for our trip to Kansas City and for his birthday in a few weeks. Daddy is going on a guy's camp weekend next weekend with Uncle Sami so CJ and I are planning a trip to the zoo. We'll put up more pics then.

Big Kids

  Ceirnan in her favorite outfit outside the ballet studio- leotard and overalls.  Someone is all ready to head off to Stephens.    CJ looking cool for school.  Ceirnan,who believes jutting your hip out is the coolest thing ever. Where did my babies go?  It's so hard to believe how big they are and how much they have grown in the last year.  Ceirnan is sprouting like a weed and towers over most her own age.  CJ doesn't have the height, but he is about the most mature young man I've ever met.  They are both so bright and excited to learn.  It makes me so happy seeing them together.  Typically, they share, they are polite to each other and they never make it through the day without at least two or three hugs and kisses for each other.  It makes my heart melt to see how much they truly enjoy spending time together.  Do not get me wrong- Ceirnan is too bossy for CJ and one of CJ's favorite phrases (which we h...
