Today brings a close to 2009. What a great year this was for us… Let us reflect on some big accomplishments, a few met milestones, and one huge life-changing event. 1. 2009 would not be so special if it were not for the arrival of Matteo, the little boy who added more love and laughter [...]

Six months
Today Matteo turns six months. We cannot believe that six months have passed so quickly, and yet it seems like such a long time ago. He is babbling quite a bit these days. He drools like a Saint Bernard – he’s been doing this since he was two-months old. Poor thing. We wonder when those [...]
Two months
Matteo is smiling much more, even to the point of maintaining a smile for extended periods of time. Sometimes, we think he laughs. He is quite the character. Also, we have noticed fewer inconsolable moments. Even better, the last few nights – three or four – he slept very well, only waking once during the [...]
Here’s to hoping it gets better…soon
We neglected to share one thing with you regarding Matteo’s last pediatrician’s visit. For the last several weeks, Matteo transforms from a happy-go-lucky baby to an inconsolable infant the next. While these episodes only last roughly 30 to 45 minutes, we find them very disconcerting because 1) the screams/screeches/cries are so high-pitched that it rattles [...]

23 months, 7 weeks
This week we celebrated two milestones: Christopher turned 23 months and Matteo turned 7 weeks. Of course, we marked this occasion by taking numerous photos. Enjoy. Picking flowers Sharing a giggle with daddy Quick, strike a pose What? “Hello Ouiser, remember me?” Has it been seven weeks already?
Whose party is it anyway?
One month before we brought Christopher home, our friends, Kai, Michael and Rainey (pronounced Rene) threw a baby shower. Though the shower took place long before we knew about Christopher, we knew our baby was coming home soon. Almost exactly one month later, Christopher came home. When Matteo was born, we had very little time [...]
His first month
Just one month ago, Matteo was born. Two days later, we brought him home. Within the first week, he gained an one pound. By now, I suspect he weighs more than a 10 lb sack of potatoes. That’s it…he’s our little potato. When he is awake, which spans the short time it takes to change, [...]
Still catching up…
on everything! In the last couple of days I bombarded you with quite a few postings. Well, I find myself with a bit of time during the very late evening as I wait for Matteo to demand is final feeding before bedtime. This feeding usually occurs sometime between 10:30 pm and midnight. He started feeding [...]
