Welcome 2012! We had a great holiday season with fun Christmas celebrations and many memories were made that we will forever cherish! We enjoyed Tommy's preschool Christmas program and Charlie's Christmas mass and social. This is such a special time of year and we are so thankful for our numerous blessings.
Everyone enjoyed the warm January spell that visited us earlier this month with lots of outside play time. There was even a hint of spring in the air...and I am already looking forward to the upcoming season!
Charlie started Little Dribblers basketball at his school and is in his glory! He loves ball and especially loves playing with his school buddies. He still looks forward to attending school everyday and is learning so much. I am constantly amazed at the growth he has encountered this year - socially and academically!
Tommy has been busy with school, play dates, birthday parties and playing with his siblings. He continues to impress us everyday with his inquisitive nature and desire to learn and comprehend the workings of everything! He is the master constructor at our home and loves to build, fix, and create!
Ellie has definitely become my little helper and sidekick. She loves to be busy and helpful, especially when it comes to unloading the dishwasher, folding laundry and tidying up the house. Her vocabulary is rapidly expanding and she loves books, babies, and anything she can collect :) Ellie is also the most independent of the three and "advanced" when it comes to sitting at the big table to eat (no more high chair), walking up and down the stairs alone, and nebulizing herself (which is a huge help when sickness strikes our trio)!
Lukie is also saying more and more words and has such a joyful demeanor. He has a contagious laugh, plays with the utmost animation and expresses a great sense of humor! Lukie LOVES the Wiggles and will dance and clap to any music he hears! He is a fun-loving little guy that adores his older brothers and loves nothing more than to back into an open lap with a good book to read :)
Andy, continues to possess a love for the game and wants a ball in hand nonstop throughout the day. With two hoops on our main level, Andy is often found practicing his shot with extreme determination. He is now the tallest of the three littles and has an appetite to match! He is mysterious, yet clever, with a dimpled smile that says it all!
We hope you are all having a healthy and happy new year!!!
