"Hi Daddddyyyyy!!!"
Natalie has been such a crazy verbal baby lately that I had to dedicate a post to her and all the fun things she has been saying. When I say she repeats anything you say...it's true! She A-DORES her big bro too. She walks around the house lately..."EEE-an....Eeeeeeee-an". She has also been putting 2-3 words together..."Hi Daddy", "I don't know", "no more", "Mommy hug", "where are u"...It's pretty incredible!
However, the UN-incredible thing that she is doing on a regular basis is body slamming our cat. And I DO mean body-slamming. She will go up to the cat and just put her belly on top of the cat and just fall with all her weight resulting in a flat, meowing, cat. Ahhhh the life of an 18 mo-old independent girl!! She is keeping our lives very interesting and full, that's for sure!!

Tiny Prints Christmas Cards!
It's that time of year again--Christmas card time!!! As you all know, I LOVE to do Christmas cards. It's a great way to keep in touch with people and to send a greeting of the season! My favorite of all the options for Christmas Cards is TinyPrints. They do an amazing job, have incredible designs and are just a great resource for any card printing really! I have printed invitations with them, Christmas cards and general greeting cards. All have been done on time (if not early!) and have been outstanding quality.
Here are some of my favorites from this year's TinyPrints Catalog...check them out! You won't be sorry that you bought your cards from TinyPrints for Christmas this year!
LOVE the simplicity of this card! It's adorable! Plus, you know me and stripes and/or polkadots?!?!
Great card for one super cute picture on the front!
Love this for a good collage of pictures from the year!
What is cuter than this bright and cheery card?? Very sweet!

What better time to kick-start our blog than now??
There have been so many new things that have happened over the past several months. Mike started his new job (yay!) and is loving it!! Ethan is almost 4--HOW is that even possible?!?!? And Natalie Gianna is 18 mos old today! Time is flying by and we are loving life!!
So many new things the kids are doing. Ethan loves his baby sister and is extremely protective of her (most of the time!). And Natalie constantly calls for "Eeeeeeeeeeee" when she wakes up from bedtime and naps. She LOVES Ethan and wants nothing more than to be up in his grill all. day. long. Isn't this the job of little sisters though? :) At naptime, Ethan says..."Natalie, do you want to come into my bed and snuggle" and Natalie either says "yesh" or shakes her head yes. So I lift her up into his bed and she lays on him and just snuggles. It. KILLS. me!!! It's definitely one of those mental snapshot times, for sure. One of these days, I will actually get a picture of it to add here.
Natalie has been repeating pretty much any word you say...she is very verbal and will answer questions with a "yesh" or "no" when asked...and let me tell you she DOES have an opinion about mostly everything!! She also will color and hold a marker the right way...whaaaaat??? She seems to really enjoy creative things though and especially enjoys trying to sneak a bite of playdough when mama isn't looking. She even gives you super shifty eyes when she is about to do something she shouldn't. Mike and I constantly say...we are gonna be in trouble with this one!!
Ethan is loving his 3's class in preschool. He is the "grown-up" of the class according to his teachers. He leads the kids on free play and tends to be the one inventing games to play on the playgrounds that everyone ends up playing. He is such a little adult at times but also such a sweet and loveable little boy too who loves being a KID! He loves to get rough and tumble with anyone really, adores sports and pretty much always wants to play baseball rain or shine.
We have been enjoying fall in our household, picking leaves, collecting acorns for "our squirrels" that come into our yard, playing outside, making cookies, inventing new games inside AND outside and just overall enjoying life.
As we patiently wait for the new iMac to come out (come on Apple!!!!), our pictures continue to be in 3 places and terribly disorganized so needless to say, it is tough to upload them!! However, here are some pics from our summer vacation. At least this give a little update on them!
