Tony is Definitely a Little Guido

I have always embraced my Italian heritage.

As anyone who knows me, or has even just talked to me for five minutes, knows that I live and breathe being Italian. 

I know a lot of people who are not proud of their heritage, no matter what it is, but I am proud to say I am an Italian-American. As we watch Tony grow to almost three-years-old, I hope he says the same when he is old enough to understand what it means to be a proud Italian-American.

So far, I think he is embracing it!

Tony and Enzo are Growing Up Way Too Fast

It is a bitter cold Thursday night and the entire family is sick. Between fevers, runny noses, sore throats and upset stomachs, Mommy, Daddy, Tony and Enzo have pretty much run the gamut of illnesses this week.

Enzo has gotten much better, while Tony has gotten worse as the week progressed. 

Daddy woke up with a sore throat this morning and Mommy came home from school with a fever.

We decided to get out Tony’s old Pack’n’Play for Enzo to try out tonight. He immediately took to it. We filled it with his toys and a blanket.

Happy Valentine’s Day Tony and Enzo

Saturday marked our first Valentine’s Day with both of the boys and our third with Tony.

Enzo woke up bright and early, around 6:30, after not sleeping through the night due to a cold. 

We had to wake Tony up around 11am after not going to bed until close to 11:30 on Friday night.

It has been interesting of late with these two boys and their sleeping habits, or lack thereof.

It is 8:30 on the last day of January.

I am sitting in the family room with my amazing family.

Enzo is in the exersaucer, Tony is watching the iPad on the sofa and Nicole is sitting in her chair with Phoebe.

I will admit it; I used to love the show Glee. When it first came out, the actors were incredibly talented and the storylines were great. The show has lost some of its luster as it moves through its final season.

Nicole is watching the latest episode of Glee and the New Directions, the main high school singing group on the show, is doing a medley of songs.

Another Fun Weekend for Tony and Enzo Around South Jersey

Tony and Enzo enjoyed yet another fun weekend as we wait for the warmer weather.

I am not the only one sick of the cold. Tony asked if he could go play on the beach the other day when he saw a picture of it covered in snow. 

The boys spent time at Grandmom and Poppi’s house Friday night, but only one of them returned home with us after dinner.

Tony wanted to stay for another sleepover, which he did. I was told he woke up at 5am today and was ready to head for the Garden State Discovery Museum, which was already on the schedule.
