It's Tee Ball Time!!!!

Goes in for the swing..... And it's outta here..... Home Run!!!!

Nico started t-ball this month and it has definitely been an experience. We have had so much fun hitting the ball, trying to catch the balls, and running around the bases. Although I am not sure he gets the concept yet, he is sure having fun making new friends and hopefully learning the basics of t-ball. Hopefully by next year he'll be ready to really learn the basics of baseball!!!

Until our next "t-ball" adventure.....

Play Ball!!!!!

Our Little Bee!!!

Until our next "t-ball" adventure.....

COUSINLY LOVE!!! Lauren, Nico & Haley

Happy B-day Lauren & Haley
Look Mommy I got the ring from the bottom of the pool!!!

Sisterly Love!

Nico and I drove to North Carolina a couple of weekends ago to visit family. It was a great time celebrating the girls birthday's and seeing them for the first time in over 2 years!!! Nico loved being with his cousins and especially swimming in Aunt Andi's pool! He is such a fish and has no fear which is good, but can be scary too!

Hopefully there will be more weekends like these spending time with family and enjoying the beautiful sunshine of Summer!!!

Until our next "swimming" adventure......

Memorial Day 2011

Water Fun!!!

Memorial Day was another fun family day! We enjoyed two picnics and a fun parade that Nico caught way too much candy....but what's a parade without a bag full of candy?!? Seems like Summer hasn't even began but it is half over already!!

Until our next "candy" adventure.......

Canoe Days

Beautiful Scenery

Our little familyLook Daddy I can help paddle!
Matt & Julie.....taking a nap Matt?? Our little swimmer!

I know I am a little behind but I am trying to catch up...it was a beautiful day on the Canal to take a canoe ride. Now I am not very adventureous but I am always willing to try something once. We asked my cousin Julie and her boyfriend Matt to come with us and we had a great time. Nico wasn't so sure about the canoe at first but about halfway through he wanted to help Daddy paddle!! We were laughing as I paddled for a just a few minutes and Julie asked why I wasn't helping......my response....."after 15 years I don't have to paddle anymore." We laughed and Daddy of course just rolled his eyes and kept paddling!!!

It was another summer adventure for the record books!!! Definitely something we will be enjoying again and afterwards we all got ice cream! I love days like these!!!

Until our next "canoe" adventure.....

Happy Mother's Day 2011
Cleveland Zoo
Cleveland, Ohio

My favorite boy!!!

Nico and the Raindrop
New Elephant Adventure
My Two Boys!!! Nice Kitty Cat!!

We had a great day on Mother's Day at the Cleveland Zoo, although it was VERY crowded, we parked and spent a few hours going around the Zoo. It was a great day and although we didn't make it through the entire Zoo spending the day with my two favorite boys is always a blast!!!!

The new Elephant Exhibit was awesome and one of these days we'll go back when it's less crowded so we can truly enjoy their beauty!

Until our next "crazy animals" adventure....

Learning About Bees!

Nico and Gpa Tim went to the Park today to learn all about Bees...how not to get stung, how they make honey, live etc.....I can't wait to get home and hear all about Bees!!!

Until our next "buzzy bee" adventure......

Fun Times with Grandparents!

Daddy's Mom and Step-Dad came for a visit over Easter and we had a great time! Nico was spoiled rotten by Grandma Arlene who played trains and did sticker books all weekend! It was great to see them and to have them there to watch Nico find his basket and hunt for his Easter Eggs the Bunny left!

Until our next "spoiled rotten kid" moment....

The Easter Bunny Came!!!

Where is my basket Daddy??

Look Athena helped
Look Mommy, I got my Slink Dog!!!
Another egg?!?!

Easter was great, we found eggs and his basket.....Nico was in heaven! We definitely ate way too much and Nico was spoiled rotten as always!!! It definitely was another great day, one we will always remember!

Until our next "Easter" adventure....

"Sunny Days, Dreaming Clouds Away".....

It's ELMO!!!!Elmo & Friends

Cutie Pie Dash

Who's that silly kid?!?!

BIG BIRD!!!

More cotton candy please!!!

Nico definitely had another fun night with Elmo...we ate too much cotton candy, had a huge strawberry smoothie and sang songs with Elmo!!! It was a great night, but thinking our nights with Elmo will soon be over.....sad face....as our little boy is growing up right before our eyes!!!

Until our next "Elmo" adventure....

First & Last Hockey Experience

Although we had great Sushi before the Hockey game in Cleveland, it was definitely the first and last one for me....and even had great seats up until the point the Medic stood right in front of us the ENTIRE game....and if you know nothing about Hockey...me....it was pretty boring, but the hot pretzel I ate was good :)

Forget which color jersey we were rooting for :)

Matt & Julie
Mascot....not sure his name either!

Of course we had a fun night out, it just wasn't what I expected at all and front row seats in front of the team aren't necessarily the best...just sayin'

Until our next "hockey or not" adventure...
