Now that we have walls...

...let me give you the tour!
Daddy and Luca checking out the progress in the family room.
Dad, if this is the kitchen, where are the cabinets and refridgerator?

I hope this dining room is big enough for our huge families! Now there is no excuse for not hosting family parties!

The stones and blue stone on the front porch are just about done.

The permanent stairs are in both going upstairs and downstairs. I hope there will be railings too ;)

The basement is getting worked on as quickly as the rest of the house. With the addition of the stairs, this was my first view of the basement!

My mom refers to the guest room as "her room". All I know is that we would be well fed if that were the case!

Nico's room...he loves it!

The master bedroom, along with the rest of the house, was getting worked on last Saturday when we visited. At this rate we'll be in by Halloween (wishful thinking, I know. But a girl can dream!)

Say "Cheese"!


We're all smiles around here with this milestone!
Nico is still a mellow guy, but now he's mellow AND happy!

And his smiles are contagious too...bet you're smiling right now!
My guess is that he's going to be as photogenic as his brother!

Sweet Dreams

Is there anything more delicious than a sleeping baby? Don't you wonder what they dream about?
and in case you were wondering just how delicious Nico is...14 pounds 1 oz. at 2 months old.
That's a whole lot of baby to love!

Just Checking My Email...

...that's what he told us at least. At what age do you have to put parental locks on the computer? It won't be long before Luca knows more about technology than I do!

3 Amigos

The good thing about having all boys on the DiCosola side of the family is that they will grow up to be the best of friends.
But why do I get the feeling Nico will be bigger than both his brother and Vinny?

What's New?

Probably one of the most frequently asked questions in the English Language, and one I have MANY answers to. In case you were wondering what's new with the DiCosolas this summer, well here's the list:
  • had a beautiful baby boy in June
  • left my teaching career to stay home with my boys full time
  • Mike started on his MBA
  • began building our house in May. ETA is December
  • put our old house on the market.
  • sold our old house
  • move out of our old house in less than 10 days (Aug. 29 to be exact!)
  • bought a temporary house in Westchester to last us 4 months
  • potty training our 2 1/2 year old
  • luca will be starting 2 school in September

hmmm. i'm sure there's more that I am forgetting, but you get the jist. We've been a little busy!

XXOO

Luca loves giving Nico hugs and kisses!
and is it me or is Nico growing at a rapid pace :( ???
