Crawlin' Machine

Santino's on the move now....crawling all over the house and getting into trouble. He loves playing with Alexya's trains and anything else that was always conveniently out of reach before! He gets very happy as he works his way across the floor and is trying so hard to pull himself up to a standing position...so far he can pull himself up to be on his knees. He's also ready for football season to officially begin...and he was telling me that since this will be his first football season (not in my belly) that the Raiders should have a winning season this year! :)

In this pic you can see his two bottom teeth pretty good....boy does this kid love to eat!

Here's a picture of Sonny with Scout, my friend Amy's dog. We went to visit her and her brand new son, Spencer Douglas, a couple weeks ago! Unfortunately I didn't get any good pics of Spencer (since I was holding him right up until his nap time and then he was mad ;)) ....but, I did get some good ones of Scout! :) Sonny really enjoyed getting his face licked! :)

The Wedding! Aug 1, 2009

Here's the only picture I got from the wedding on my camera. Since, as you can see, Robert, Lexy, Sonny and I were all in the wedding, it was not really practical for me to have my camera with me...so thanks to Frank for taking this one! :)

The wedding was wonderful and so beautiful! The ceremony was nice (a little long, but hey it's a catholic wedding what do you want?) and the colors and everyone looked so beautiful. I obviously got choked up a few times and had to work at fighting back some tears when my dad and sush were saying their vows. It was a great feeling to be able to hear them say it though...really sunk in that it is actually official now!! Yay! :) The reception was amazing with a great band and my dad even sang a song to sushuma! Caleb and I gave speaches, which in my opinion were awesome! ;) It was great to see everyone and get to meet my new family and I love my new aunts, sush's sisters!, they are so sweet and beautiful and fun!! Love them. It was just a really great time.

The next day we got to see the video tape of the wedding (thanks darren!) and I watched it with Lexy. We were watching the couples walk down the aisle and I was saying, "who's coming next?" and she would say, "it's, it's...aunt candice and uncle chris!" then "it's, it's...aunt danny(yes she calls him aunt- I think because she feels close to him and likes girls better so he's worthy of the aunt title) and aunt lauryn!" then "it's it's aunt drea and dada!" then "it's sonny and great grandma" then "it's me!!" then "it's mommy!! Mommy here and mommy there too (since i was sitting next to her and also in the video she was very excited)! :)

Oh and it was so cute when we first got to the church and sushuma had already gotten ready and was taking pictures out on the grass...and alexya and I came outside and she saw her and says really loud, " ooooooooh su-sush-shuma you so pretty! A princess! Look mom!" it was so sweet. :)
