Boys are Back in Town

So, Dad is in town and everyone has been having a GREAT time. Dad brought some gifts from Grandma. Orazio couldn't get enough of his own helicopter with ride-along bulldog. Everyone headed off to a CC hockey game last night and Orazio busted out the dance moves. Orazio even received a couple Christmas gifts early and spent the day in his recliner (next to Dad), watching the Giants. The apple doesn't fall far.....

Just Hanging

So, Orazio isn't a huge fan of the park _ at least not yet. The swing and slide were very scary. He is more of a soccer ball kicking, ball throwing, LAX stick wielding kind of kid. We can"t wait for Dad to come to town. Look for more family photos soon.

Once a Mets fan, Always a Mets fan!

Although the clothes have changed from Mets to Giants as the weather has turned colder, Orazio is showing his true colors as he walks around the house with Mr. Met. As you can see, Orazio is a big helper, climbing into the laundry basket and using the broom. He has discovered the joy of Tupperware, so I no longer have left-overs in the fridge, but he has LOTS more toys. Enjoy the pictures.

Long Night

After a long night, Orazio retired his CPT America costume and changed back into some warm, comfortable clothes. The festivities were not officially over, so Orazio changed into his second costume - a yellow fireman's hat.

Here are some more pictures of Orazio adding to his bag of candy. After a long night of Trick-or-Treating, Orazio and I headed in for some food and to pass out candy to other kids. Orazio didn't like giving away candy, but he liked all the bright color costumes that came to the door.

CPT America

As you can tell by the costume, Dad had everything to do with what Orazio wore for his first Trick-or-Treat experience. We only hit a couple houses, and Orazio was a little confused by the new places, faces, and concept of ringing doorbells. The confusion continued when he was offered candy, but he made out like a bandit. Orazio liked to choose candy in a brightly colored wrapper. Here are a couple pictures of Orazio getting ready and going up to his first house.
