Playing together

Now that Kevin is getting bigger and more fun, Anya tries to play with him all the time. Here they are playing Hide and Seek. He doesn't seem to mind.

Fluff

While at my Mom's house last month she decided to clean out her food storage and pantry and send it with me. Fluff was an object in that pantry. It is not something I have ever bought before. Anya has decided that her favorite way to eat it is in a spoon and not on a sandwich with peanut butter.

They Won

Enough said.

Great Grandma Lonegan

While in CT we stopped an had a visit with Ed's Grandma, Isabelle Lonegan. Anya's middle name is Isabelle. She is a wonderful woman and will be 92 on Feb. 28th. It was so nice to have a visit with her to have the kids play. Ed's Parents live downstairs in the same house and everytime we go up to Great Grandma's house Anya gets excited to play dolls with her. Grandma can't get on the floor and play but her house is full of wonderful little figurines and treasures that Anya just loves. The dolls that Grandma got just for her house are one of her favorites. It is so nice to spend time with her. I am in awe of the strength and will of Grandma. Not many people are still living on their own at 92. Her sight and hearing and strength are begining to weaken but I still view her as a strong woman. I am very grateful we took the time to stay and visit with her and her cat. Anya and Kevin had a great time hearing her sing and playing with her. It was a very nice visit. This is an old photo of when Kevin was just new.

Week at Grandma's

This past week we went up to CT to visit Grandma. It was a great visit. On Sat. morning Ed got up to take Mom to the airport, she had to go to Miami. We stayed at her house and visited Grandma and Grandpop over the weekend. The kids had a blast. Then when Mom came home she helped me sew and played with the kids. I love having extra hands! After fantastic chinese, cleaning Mom's house and spending lots of time with family we are home. Until next time thanks for having us!

Yes he has a melon head but we love him anyway! He is sitting up on his own for a half a second or so. Loves baby food. Sweet potatoes, squash, peaches, and pears are his favorite. I'm pretty sure he would kill for oatmeal if he could. He also likes a tiny taste of bread or brown rice. He is happy but is still not a good sleeper, it will come! He is such a big boy now!

Go Giants

While the kids were sleeping the Giants won. We live right outside of Philly, (Eagles) you should see the dirty looks I get when Kevin wears his Giants hat. You should have heard the muffled screams from Ed when the won. The dancing around the house and the hugs and kisses. Needless to say we have a very excited Ed in our house.
