But it does not end

So, Connor had a friend over to play today, Quinten. Aisling came inside at one point in tears. When prompted what the problem was, she tearfully replied "Connor and Quinten said they were taller than me". Does she actually know what that means? Is that really tear worthy?

*Sigh* At least she can be taller than Siobhan now.

I may be a bit biased....

But I think these kids are awfully good looking....

more pictures!

Here's a great shot of Siobhan looking around:

Siobhan Frances Frugoli born today!

Siobhan Frances Frugoli was born today at 12:26pm by C-Section. She was 8 pounds 2 ounces and 20 inches long. She and Heather are doing very well. Connor and Aisling are very excited about her arrival. Here are some pictures of Siobhan and her happy family.


Welcome Siobhan!

Thanks to all who supported us today both in person and through your thoughts and prayers.

Seriously, Vermont children!

Soooo..... maybe we should move to a warmer climate? Apparently my kids don't even know what to play with when the weather is warm....


You'll notice that the smaller one is pulling the larger one!

Also, my loving caring children brought me in some gifts the other day:

Click on the picture and make it larger. Then you will see that they carefully tore up pieces of the driveway and brought them inside for me. They were soooo proud! It was very cute. This goes along with the rocks they give me everywhere we go. Seriously. Everywhere.

They are too darn cute.

Here's one more of them cuddling in the "grown up" swings in the backyard: (you know, the cool swings Al and I never get to relax in because we're so busy raising the kids.... good to know they're getting used!)

My Vermont children

So, it's spring in Vermont, which means that as soon as the temperature hits 40 degrees, the kids take their shoes off and head for the sandbox!

These are from a few weeks ago when it was colder.

Yes, it really was 40 degrees!

Notice the snow in the foreground, and check out the bare feet!

The Maestro!

Here's Connor playing the piano.
