Preview

As you may or may not know, we went to Disneyland! We had a fabulous time, made life-long memories, and maxed out every minute of our time there. Here is one picture, and this was the highlight of our trip. Our son got to meet the one and only, Lightning McQueen, aka "ighting a-king" as Enzo calls him. Cars-land is not open until 2012, so they had Mater and Lightning set up to promo it, it was the real deal. It was more than enough for Enzo, it made his entire trip. He checked them out from bumper to bumper. Talked to them. Looked into their mouths. And tried crawling up on them. Needless to say, we will be going back real soon to see Radiator Springs and all its pals. Love, T



p.s. more to come about our Disneyland trip...

Three Months Old

Rocco is three months old today. Time is going by fast. My life sure changed three months ago, and I would never go back. Our family grew and my love increased. I cannot explain the magnitude of my love for this little boy.

I love you Rocco and I hope you feel it every day of your life. You are a true joy. You smile everytime you see me and your daddy. You love watching your big bro, I can tell you wanna be with him whenever you can. Your dad says that that's how all little brothers are...they look up to their big brother and just want to be noticed by them. Between you and me, Enzo loves it that you are around. And he will be a really good big brother to you. He loves you. You are strong, Rocco. You came out of the womb that way. My prayer from the day I found out I was pregnant was that you would be big, strong, and healthy. God answered. He always does. You like tummy time, that's when you show off your stuff, you hold your head high and move it from side to side. You also grab at things, especially someone's finger, you squeeze really hard. Sometimes I say "ouch!" I think you are going to be tall and built. You are a schedule guy (much like your mom in this area). You like structure. Our days are full, even if we are just at home. You nap 3-4 times a day, depending on what time you started your day. You like to sleep, you are a great sleeper, you like your bed, that's your favorite place to sleep. You are a good baby. You are a good boy. You are sweet. And you are gonna be a go-getter. I can tell you are full of zeal. You will be passionate and voice your opinion. I love you Rocco Anthony.

Love, Mama

Proverbs three, five & six

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.

P.S.

I was eating this while posting my previous blog entry. Jealous. I know.

Chopped.

This mama got a haircut, or shall I say a hair-chopped! I needed something that was quick & easy. I am not a hair person, I am the type that wants to do nothing to my hair and have it look good, so in the last year I have been pulling it back, everyday. Well, that was getting really old. So, last Saturday, my good friend Charissa, who is a very talented hairstylist went ahead and chopped it off. I was sooooo grateful. This is the picture I took to her, and she replicated it!



A real picture of me will soon follow, but I don't like the ones I was taking myself, so until then...here is the picture of what it looks like. It's short & sassy, and it takes one minute to style and looks adorable, if I do say so myelf!

Love, T

'lil big guy

Today was Rocco's 2 month well child check. He weighs 15 pounds 5 ounces and is 25 1/4 inches long, with a big head too. He's in the 95th percentile for his height and weight and 75th for his noggin. We were not surprised with these stats, because just this week he grew out of his 6 month jammies! He's now in 6-9 month mainly because of his length! Can't quite wrap my mind around this! How'd we have such a big baby??? Our bet is that he's gonna be tall like his Papa Pete and built like his other Papa. We shall see. And yes, I will post a 2 month picture soon, hopefully later tonight.

Love, T
