May 24th, 2010 · No Comments

Parabens pra voce, Nesta data querida, Muitas felicidades, Muitos anos de vida…. Paolo turned 2 years old today! We did not experience much of the “terrible two’s” with either Lorenzo or Chloe. Paolo is certainly more active, and he does have his moments, but he really is a very happy and nice kid. And, at [...]

Breathe a sigh of relief

February 5th, 2010 · No Comments

Paolo had his ear tube implants and adenoidectomy procedures done yesterday. I must say, it wasn’t easy for me to go ahead with the surgery.

Christmas Tree

December 12th, 2009 · No Comments

We are a bit late this year, but we finally set up our Christmas Tree.  I wonder how long it is going to take for Paolo to “clear” the bottom half of the tree.  We love the holiday season!

The Calm after the Storm

March 10th, 2009 · No Comments

After last week’s snow storm, we are back to a more typical and absolutely gorgeous early-spring weather.  In fact, it was so beautiful this past Saturday that Paolo simply refused to stay inside — so much so that he even skipped his morning nap. We started the day with a nice walk around the neighborhood; [...]
