Song Lyrics Really Hit Home as a Parent

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.

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.

Merry Christmas Tony and Enzo!

Tony and Enzo Christmas

Well, it is the end of January, and I am finally getting around to writing about Christmas.

I apologize for the delay in posts, but things have been crazy of late.

The boys are doing well. Tony is running around and chatting like a maniac and Enzo is growing in leaps and bounds. He turned six months old yesterday.

Christmas was an adventure this year with two children in the house now.

A couple of weeks before Christmas, Grandmom and Poppi asked if they could take the boys to Storybook Land. 

We arrived to a parking lot full of cars not long after the park opened. The place was decorated for the season, but none of the lights were lit just yet. 

Upon entering the park, we heard a recording that said Santa Claus would make an appearance at his house in the park at 5pm to wave his magical wand and turn all the lights on for the guests.

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.
