Tony Wants His Birthday Canceled and a Deal Voided

IMG_0868

I was sitting in my chair on this chilly Tuesday morning trying to get some work done while Tony ran around the room like a maniac.

Nonna was in Enzo’s room trying to get him to go down for a nap. 

Tony has been a menace this morning, chasing the dog with his microphone stand and poking her to the point of making her bark, which in turn woke up Enzo from an early-morning nap. 

Then, he took all of his Mickey Mouse Clubhouse tools and threw them all over the floor. Nothing fazes this child when trying to discipline him, except that he is does not want to be sent to his room.

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.

A ‘Belated’ Thanksgiving Day for the Boys

We know we are more than a month late with this post, but better late than never. 

We got to enjoy our first Thanksgiving with Enzo and it was definitely a memorable one. Even though Enzo was cooed over by the family, Tony was still the life of the party. 

As usual, Tony refused to eat dinner when we all sat down as a family, but he eventually came to the table to eat a variety of different things, not an entire plate. 

Enzo was our own little turkey for the day, getting to try some mashed potatoes at dinner.
