Luca 15 months old

March was an exciting month for us very busy with March Madness, St. Patricks day, many many birthdays and Easter! Luca is chatting like crazy now some of his favorite words currently are: Poppi, Pop pop, ma, daddy, trace, jacks, socks, up pizz, and cheeeese . He is also loving to dance. Anytime music, a commercial, or my cell phone comes on he rocks out...it is hilarious. He is currently battling an ear infection and teeth coming in so over Easter weekend he was not his normal self but he is on the road to recovery. He doesn't walk anywhere, he runs. We are trying to discipline a pinching phase he is going through (he thinks he is tickling) Here are some pictures from the month.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

I have made it a personal goal to post on here once a week....just little updates and pictures of the family so check back often! Hope you all wore green!!!

Weekend at Fort Lewis

So we spent the weekend with our good friends Bri, Morgan, and Miss Gracie up at Fort Lewis Washington. We had a great relaxing weekend (or as much as you can with two little ones) Here are a few pics from the weekend.

We were lucky enough to have our good friend from college come by with his wife and daughter Mia, this was the best picture I could snap of the two of them. They were on the go constantly.

They love each other....Gracie and Luca

Update








Hey, well it has been a month or so since my last update so I thought it was a good time to post a few pictures...Things have been going well. We all experienced our first ER trip a week and a half ago when Luca took a header to the floor and got 9 stitches. He was a trooper and thankfully for me he didn't freak out too much so I was able to stay calm but it wasn't fun. Other then that excitement nothing new is really going on. Thankfully Luca is now sleeping through the night and for the time being is still taking two naps a day, which is great for me. Last weekend Rob and I took Luca with us wine tasting to see how he would do, as expected there were ups and downs but overall he did better then I had thought. He enjoyed running around outside. Luca is approaching 14 months and we are looking forward to see what he does next, he is becoming quite the performer these days doing his "tricks" for everyone. He currently enjoys reading (or having me read) the same books over and over, eating his pears with a fork, and wrestling with Robbie. He is calling Rob "Dad" now and although he can say mama when we ask him to he says "Bob?" So we still working on that. He says "Jacks" for Jack and "Pop" for Poppi and Pop pop.

Here are some pictures
