This is one C-U-T-E family

I just can't get enough of these adorable kids.

Time with the cousins

It was a lot of fun hanging out with my sister's family.  I couldn't really decide on my favorite pics, but here are a few.  This one of Giovanni and his cousin who is only two months younger is sooo cute.

Look who's sitting up!

I can't believe how old this guy is getting.  He just starting sitting up while we were in Arkansas. Here's a couple shots of his attempts at Aunt Cassandra's house.

Grandma Partin

Here is Giovanni with Grandma Partin at one of our favorite places in Little Rock- The Star of India!  Jonathan, Melanie, Grandma, Giovanni and I took a trip to the Star while we were at home.  He's really a good baby for taking out with you.  He didn't make a peep almost the entire time!

Here's Giovanni hugging Grandma.  So sweet!

Partin Family Party

We were at home recently and these (and the pictures below) are a few from the family barbecue we had at Grandma and Gramps Partin's house.  Yea!  Fun times!

Family Barbecue

Presenting: Anya!

We have a new niece!  Anya Weldon was born on June 7th!  Woohoo- what a cutie!

Giovanni's First Flight

Here's G's first airplane ride- we were on our way to visit the Partin Grands in Arkansas.  He also met his first famous person- we were sitting right behind Chris Allen and his wife, Katie.

Almost sitting up

I think he could do it, if he would just be satisfied to sit and not lurch forward at any solid object that might go into his mouth.

Enjoying the outdoors

Here's our little guy enjoying being outside.  He loves to be in very little clothes and to be outdoors.  I'm sure he's going to love summer!

Mother's Day

Okay, I'm finally getting around to posting some pics from Mother's Day.  We spent it with the Cipolla clan in LaGrange.  Good times.

Takin a family walk.

Due at the same time.

The Big MB

In college, I had some friends that referred to anything bad as "the big MB".  When I asked them what MB stood for they told me it was "monkey buttocks".  Well, here's our own little monkey buttocks.

One of those two friends was Andrei Constantinescu, who gave Giovanni this little monkey that ooh ooh ahhs.  The other was Nguyen Nguyen who is about to have a little monkey of his own.

My two cute boys

Un-bear-ably cute...that's right, I said it

We got this cute hat from Jeremy and Trista, and I realized that I didn't have any pictures of him in it and it's already too small.  So I stuck it on his head anyway and shot a few.  It's still sooo cute.

Open Mouth...Insert Foot

I snuck up on Giovanni when he was trying to get his foot in his mouth.  His two favorite things most recently are sticking his foot in his mouth and turning over.  He turns over, cries for me to turn him back over, and when he gets back onto his back IMMEDIATELY turns over again.  What a monkey!
