Pop has to "FIX" the TV

So we took a road trip down to see Aunt Melissa, Uncle Ernie and Sky's new house! We had a great day and I really wish I had take a picture or two. Alas, I did not. However, when we got home, since we had been out all day, the first thing Luka asked for when we got in the house, was to watch TV. Daddy told him that he couldn't watch TV because it was broken and the only person who could FIX it was Pop.

I had to get this on video because Andro, Aunt Barbara and I were hysterical. I swear, he is trying to say "FIX"...he's not swearing at Pop or the TV...

A's Birthday Party

Aidan's birthday party was Labor Day weekend and what a great day we had!! Meema made a great birthday cake and Aidan just loved it! Thanks, Meema!!!Mommy and daddy were very busy and didn't get to take too many pictures, but all the kids were great and we all had a wonderful time!

Happy 1st Birthday, Aidan!

Yummy...Yummier...

YUMMIEST!!!!!

Happy Birthday A!!!

Cruise to Canada

So, we have finally taken the boys on their first vacation. Luka, Aidan, Andro, Grandma Buneta, Aunt Katherine and I took a cruise to Canada last week. The trip was a short one, but it was fun to spend so much time with Meema and Aunt Katherine. We just don't get to see them enough!

Speaking of Aunt Katherine, it looks like Luka might be following in her footsteps, as he has deemed himself the new family photographer. We decided when he becomes famous these might be worth some money...

Yes, those are Daddy's and Luka's shadows...and no...we don't think he did it on purpose!

I like to call this one "Very close to a deck chair"

The second night at sea was formal night. We tried to get a family shot but no such luck. We did get a really nice picture of Aunt Katherine and Aidan though!

We enjoyed having breakfast out on the balcony (mostly because the crumbs didn't get all over the room that way)!!

We took a day trip to the Bay of Fundy and Reversing Falls when in Saint John, New Brunswick. It was very pretty but VERY windy!

Luka took some more pictures. We call this one, "A self portrait."

All in all, we had a really nice time. Luka ate his first (second, third, fourth and fifth) ice cream cone(s) on this trip and Aidan began furniture surfing. Not walking yet, (THANK, GOD!!!) But surfing all over the place! I have a video, but I won't bore you with that! :)

Stupid human tricks

Aidan, wave to Pop!!!



Come on. How cute is that??? :)

Helicopter + Mommy's Hair = DISASTER

Getting ready to leave for work last Thursday and I was delayed at the gate.
Luka has this helicopter with "real" rotors that actually turn. When I gave him a hug to leave he "drove" his 'copter up my arm and over my head. Well, half-way over my head anyway... As I started to stand up I said, "Hey, let go of my hair, Luka" as I just assumed he had a handful. What I had, instead, was a 'copter-ful. Yes. My hair was so wrapped around the rotors that Andro had to cut it out with a scissor.

Thankfully, I have enough and you can't even see the bald spot. I was, however, late for work. The email to my boss read, "Running late. Heliopcopter in hair."

A's First Time at the Beach

Aunt Lisa and Anna were in NJ this past week for some business and some fun!!! I was able to take two days off to spend with them and was able to see Lisa every day she was here. She and Anna flew home to Tampa this morning and I miss them already. It was great to have them around and to spend some time with Anna (who is growing up so fast!!) Luka and Anna played so well together...it is amazing to know they'll be friends forever!

Last Thursday we went down the shore for the day. Aidan had never been to the beach before and Luka had only been a couple of times last year, so we thought it would be a lot of fun! As you can see, we were right!

With both Luka and Anna running in and around the water, I wasn't able to take too many pictures, but here are a few!

Aidan EATING the sand (that kid eats everything!) Yummy! :)

Look, Mama, a SHELL!!!

You! Come here!

Anna was so good with Aidan and gave him lots of hugs and kisses!

We finished off the day with Lisa and I getting SOAKED while holding our children under the outdoor showers trying to get all the sand off. Luka started running across the beach totally naked, tiney hiney and everything. Lisa and I were absolutely hysterical and we drew a crowd with all the commotion. Once everyone had diapers and clothes back on, Luka and Anna shared and ice cream sandwich and Aunt Lisa and Aunt Jenn shared a Chipwhich. What a perfect ending to the day!
