Dirt!

Orazio is an outdoor loving kid! He loves to play is the sand, dirt, water, snow, etc - anything to stay outside. Here is a little snapshot of what O did this weekend. Needless to say, he gets a bath almost every night.

Hanging at the Park

Orazio, Xavier and I have been spending some quality time at the park. Orazio is doing a great job as a big brother. He likes to tickle Xavier when he is fussy. I think he just wants Xavier to stop crying. The whole family also took a road trip to visit Grandma and Grandpa T and watch Aunt Marissa graduate. Orazio watched Dora and Mickey Mouse the whole way. Here area couple of photos. I'm sure there will be many more to follow.

Uncle CJ's Graduation

Xavier and I headed to New Mexico to watch Uncle CJ graduate for the University of New Mexico at Highlands. There are better pictures out there, but these are the pictures I had on my camera.

X Men

So, Xavier and I decided to take in a

movie before we left Colorado. I wanted to see X Men, but was a little concerned about Xavier's ears and any loud fight scenes. So, Xavier went dressed for sound - check out his hearing protection.

Laughing Baby

Xavier has found his laugh...enjoy the giggles.

Xavier's Tummy Time

Xavier likes his tummy time just about as much as his big brother did. Xavier continues to grow each and ever day. I think his favorite time to eat is 2:30 a.m. Xavier likes to work his head, smile, and giggle for his fans. It is amazing how much he has grown and changed in the last few weeks, let alone the last two months. Enjoy!

Road Trip

Here is a long overdue entry into Orazio's World. Aunt Jess, Orazio, Xavier and I made the long trip to NY shortly after my last entry. We made a quick stop in Grand Island, Nebraska to visit Great-Grandma T. Great-Grandma loved hanging with the boys. Orazio wasn't into sitting on GG's lap, but Xavier had no problems. Orazio is also doing a little better at being nice to his little brother. We have even hear the word "brother" a few times. After stopping in Nebraska, the clan all headed to NY with a couple stops along the way. We hung out in NY for about three weeks. We had a great time unpacking boxes and getting the house set up. I have no idea how we fit all of that stuff into the little CO house, but I unpacked the thousands of boxes to prove exactly how much we have. Xavier and I headed back to CO a week ago, while Orazio stayed in NY with Dad, Grandma Annie, Grandpa Ralph, Nana, Aunt Jess, and Aunt Riss. I've heard nothing but good reports. Orazio has turned into a pizza, pasta, and bagel guy. I'm sure the Long Island accent will start coming through soon. All is well in the world of Orazio and Xavier. The whole family will be back together shortly.
