Go American University!

Neil is supporting his cousins Nicole (a freshman at American) and Stephen (a first year law student at American). Thanks for the T-shirt! He wears it a lot.

Amy, Alan, Christine, and Will Come to Visit

We are so glad that Amy, Alan, Christine, and little Will came to visit us. We had a great time with them! Neil and Siena were happy to finally meet Will and they played together really nicely.

Will is a big eater and he loved the dairy free stuffed shells as you can see by his very messy green face.

On Saturday Neil had a great idea to go bowling since it wasn't a sunny day. Alan was the star, but I think Neil came in second.

Neil and Siena took their first bath together. Will didn't want to join in. He wanted a private, quiet bath.

We can't wait for the next get together.

Halloween Part 1

As you know, I have come to love Halloween. I think it allows for many great picture opportunities. We met a friend at a small pumpkin patch. Actually it is the same place we go to pick strawberries. Neil picked out a small pumpkin and they were both very happy to pose for pictures. So this is your first installment of pictures and I know there will be many more. Thanks Nanny for Siena's cute Halloween outfit. I heard on the news the other day that North Carolina is going to have a pumpkin shortage this year. Can you believe that? I guess we'll have to get our pumpkins early this year.

Also, on a side note.....Siena got her first tooth today! YEAH!

Amy, Alan, Christine, and Will we can't wait to see you this weekend!

Rosh Hashanah

We had a great time in Richmond celebrating the Jewish New Year. It was nice to spend the holiday with the Hornsteins and Nanny. Siena looks so cute in her new pink poncho that Nanny made! We missed Aunt Jenni, Uncle Bri, and Aunt Boo-Boo a lot though. Mama made a delicious holiday and we enjoyed seeing everyone!

Visit to Boston

Here are some pictures from our fun visit back to our old stomping grounds. We had a nice time with Amy and Alan. We spent the day downtown by the Public Gardens where Neil enjoyed the Swan boat ride. He also saw the ducks that the book Make Way for Ducklings are based on. We even posed for a picture outside the place PJ and I met and of course we couldn't be in Boston and not stop by Fenway Park. Go Red Sox! Thanks Amy and Alan for the wonderful hospitality. Your new house is beautiful!

Conneticut Trip

As you can tell, we had a great time in Connecticut visiting family. Mina Masi and Arun Masa were very hospitable and let us take over their basement. All of Neil's older cousins had endless patience with him and played from morning till night.

Day at the Museum with Mama

We had a great time at the Life and Science Museum this morning. Thanks to Mama and Papa we now have a membership so we can go as many times as we'd like. Neil wanted to read every sign and learn about everything!

We had a great time up North seeing everyone. PJ is still up there and has the camera, but I will download those pictures when he gets back so you can see how much fun we had. Everyone is doing great!
