growing up

It has been such a crazy journey for ALL of us this first year of school for Gino. You can even look back at the old blog pictures when he started to see the tears we had to work through for months. As a parent, we just never cease to be amazed at how much our kids change so quickly.

it's a race! off we go to take gino to school.

thanks kids for stopping to pose for mommy. :)

can't even keep up with him! look at him go!

gotta hang his stuff by his cubby.

hugs, love, kisses, high-5 and silly faces! (as you can see the other kids like to join in too - Destonini is at the window today)

mother's day at the aquarium

It was a beautiful day in Monterey. We all had such a great time!
My kids and hubby made the day soooo incredibly special.

video of kiddos

My kids LOVE the song "Mary Jane Shoes" by Fergie. It's soo much fun to see them sing & dance in the car. ha ha ha It's long, but the best part is the end of the song when it gets fast and crazy!
