Hi!!!!!!
First of all, an explanation: I have made an effort lately to simplify and prioritize every aspect of my life and so I chose to cut out most of my computer time, mostly blogging, and spend more time outside and more time teaching my kids one on one. I still check facebook nearly every day, especially since I have it on my iPhone, which makes it way easier. By the way, having three kids is awesome amazing fun and exhausting. So to summarize I took a little blogging hiatus but have decided to come back to it. I forgot that blogging is more than showing people pics of what we;ve been up to and ideas that I have, it's kind of like a little family diary. And I need to keep up with it, so here goes.
Our summer has been fun and super busy. Our neighborhood has been so friendly and nice so the kids have played with their friends almost every day versus last summer when we would maybe have a playdate once every other week. The kids are thriving and growing and are adorable as always.
Michelangelo is four and learning how to read. He begs to play with friends in the mornings, then when they have to go home for lunch he begs to play with them again. It's cute, he is quite the little social butterfy. He played on his very first sports team, a soccer team, and he was much more interested in the social aspect of the games than actually playing.
Wesley is three and potty training, slowly... He is a sweetheart. He is fascinated with the television set and loves to get into the dvd's. He is our little curious George, he loves to explore and get up onto things and into things. A few weeks ago we had a scare where he drank some hair developer and we had to take him to Primary Children's Hospital and it was pretty scary. But he is fine now. I think all those time outs are working, he is learning his limits little by little.
Francesca is our little beauty queen. She is all diva through and through. She loves attention, especially from her mama. She loves anything pink, in fact, she will get into the tupperware drawer and hand towel drawer and pick out only the pink items all on her own, it's hilarious. She has recently learned how to glare. At first it was funny but she should just give it up. But once she throws you that sweet smile you forget all about it.
Here are just some random pictures of the cruise. It was really really wonderful. The food was amazing. 
One more pic os a pic. That was a real macaw!
Here are some friends who we were assigned to dine with each night. They were really cool. We even found out that they have a dog named Chewbacca and we have a bunny name Princess Leia. (both STar Wars characters)
