November update.

Here is my sweet boy at 6 weeks. He was 12 1/2 pounds! We are having his baptism in a few weeks. That will be nice.

We are getting ready for the Holidays. I have the Christmas cards printed and will mail them in December. We are starting our shopping for the kids. We even got a new Espresso maker for us on sale with a mail in rebate. $70 for a $200 machine. :) It makes awesome coffee. The big kids are in classes with our Homeschool group. They have taken classes like: gift making, play writing, wood working and art. They do Gymnastics, Sunday School and 4H. So we are really busy!

Our chickens are laying pretty well. We have whittled down the raccoon population for now and haven't lost any more birds.

Baby Bathtime!

Baby Giovanni taking his first tub bath.

Giovanni is one month old.

Today my sweet Giovanni is one month old! How did this happen? It must have happened in my sleep deprived hazy. LOL! Anyway, here he is in his over 10 lb goodness. :)

We also tried to take a holiday photo today. I should use this for my cards. I really should. It's pretty hilarious after I got done being mad that they couldn't act right for 10 minutes. The photo was perfect except for Gioia acting the idiot.
