Subway Art


Cannot figure out how to flip this image. Again, my IT guy is across the ocean. The boys, and I must admit, myself, have been having a hard time with some basic values, so I wanted a reminder in the house. I wrote our last name down the middle and found words that I wanted us to daily strive for. It turned out pretty great, except if you look closely, I cannot follow a straight line.

Sibling LOVE





I decided to take pictures of the kids after their baths tonight. I actually blow dried Sofia's hair to avoid post-bath hair. Pretty dang cute kids if I do say so myself. Sorry the first pic of Sergio is sideways. Marc is gone, so just be glad for photos...

conitnuing saga of a bad hair day...

Jump up

For some reason my kids have always liked to be held in a standing position. This can get really tiring for a mom's arms. So I put them in a jumper at a young age. I tighten the length up so that they are not even touching the floor. This is Sofia on her first go. You can tell she loves it.

Sunday best...

EASTER EGGS

Here in England, it is rare to find white eggs. Because you cannot really dye brown eggs, they paint them for Easter. The boys school has a contest every year and you have to make your own basket. A couple of recycled take out containers and some pipe cleaners, and you have baskets. Sergio did two Humpty Dumpty eggs because he was obviously an egg. Giovanni just painted lines, without tracing them first. Giovanni actually won the contest....

Desk project

You have to actually click on the pictures to see the difference a little paint can make.
