Vinny's First Communion Weekend

We went up to Ashtabula for Vinny's First Communion party. Congratulations, Vinny! We're so proud of you!

Anthony loved playing baseball with his cousins.

Maria and Paul loved spoiling Gianna! :)

Anthony got to spend some time with his girlfriend, Victoria, while we were up in Ashtabula. They will be best buds forever!

Anthony Starts Swim Lessons

The Dinosaur!

My brother, John, sent Anthony this costume in the mail. He was so excited! He looked so cute. Thanks, Uncle John!

Marc even likes it too! :)

Our Visit to Amy and Javier's

We went to visit Amy and Javier in Florida. Needless to say, we had so much fun. Thanks Amy and Javier!!!! We can't wait to come back!

Gianna got to spend time with her new BFF, Chloe. She is 3 weeks older than her.

The boys had a great time at the beach!

Anthony got a hold of Marc's beer and I happened to get a shot of him tasting it. I don't think he liked it too much!

Gianna at the ocean for the first time. I think she liked it!

Easter Bunny Brought Anthony A Shaving Kit

The Easter bunny brought Anthony a pretend shaving kit. The kids had so much fun with it. Even the girls shaved their faces. Sooo funny!

Pine Mountain Safari

We went to the Pine Mountain Safari while we were in Georgia. We rented a van to drive through the safari. The animals would come right up to the windows and stick their heads in for food. It was hilarious! We all had so much fun!

Easter Sunday

My sister, Nancy, had everyone out to her house for Easter. Thanks for having us out, Nancy. We had so much fun!

Anthony was in heaven! He got to play with all of his cousins and eat tons of sweets. Every time I looked, he was grabbing a treat off of the table!

Becky and David enjoyed some quiet time in the shade.

Maddie took him around to look for Easter eggs. He found the golden egg and won a huge chocolate bunny. Just what he needed!

Gianna In Her Easter Dress

Gianna got to get all dressed up for her first Easter. She looked so sweet in her dress.

Her Aunt Tamie held her after she got stripped down. I'm sure she felt much better!

Decorating Easter Eggs

Anthony got to decorate Easter eggs for the first time with his cousins. He had a blast! He loves doing artsy stuff so this was right up his alley!

Easter Festival in Georgia

We went to an Easter festival in Georgia with my sister, Kathy, and her kids (Maddie, Ayla and Hudson). Anthony was terrified of the mascot costumes so I'm not sure if he really enjoyed the day. Hopefully, next year will be better! Gianna stayed asleep in the carrier the entire time. I need a good nap like that!

My Mom came to visit in March to help me out with the kids. It was great having her here and so nice to spend time with her. The kids loved getting spoiled too! Thanks for all of your help, Mom!

My sweet little boy! Anthony was showing off this hat that Laura and Cal gave him.

My little boy isn't so little anymore! Anthony got into Gianna's swing and fell asleep. He thinks it's still his!

Gianna Is Getting So Big

Gianna is getting so big! She went for her 2 week check up a few weeks ago and she weighed 7lb 10oz. She is a good eater and a good sleeper. We are enjoying having her in our family!

Grandma and Papa Came to Visit

Grandma and Papa Varckette came to visit and were a huge help with the new baby and with Anthony. Thank you!!

We got hit with another snow storm while they were here and Anthony got to go out and play.

Costume Day

Anthony and Chris pulled out the costumes and were having a blast. We bought Anthony this dragon costume for Halloween last year and he wanted nothing to do with it. I was shocked to see him it. He let Chris wear his astronaut costume that his cousin Hudson gave him. They looked so cute!

Gianna Goes Home

We brought Gianna home on a cold and snowy day. She got spoiled with lots of visitors.
