Skating lesson results

Today was the last day that the Steriti Rink was open for the season.  We (Rich and Chris) decided to make the best of it.  We got there in time to take one last lesson with Rich's favorite teacher Kate.  As you can see in the video below, Rich is now quite a good skater.  Then there was a three hour long open skate that most people came for a portion of.  Not us.  We stayed there for the entire three hours (that's 4 hours at the rink total).  Rich didn't want to leave, although I'm not sure it was the skating that was keeping him there.  As you can see his two friends Julia and Valentina were there, and for the second time in a week, I was ditched so he could skate with his girlfriends.  Even while the Zamboni was out, he sat on the steps waiting with them.  Although its tough to hear your son say "Dad you stay here so I can go do spins with my friends by myself", I am very proud of my little hockey player.

Giggles!

Although Angela loves to smile (and does so ALL the time) she has been stingy with the belly laughs. Not this day!! She is totally a daddy's girl and he is the best at making her giggle. Enjoy - it is music to our ears.

Single Mom - missing Daddy

Image
Since Chris was away again for work, we had our first Mommy/Richie/Angela days. It was a lot of work, but I did it! I guess I can handle 2 kids at once. Here are some pictures of our days so Chris can see what we did and know we missed him. We did lots of extra fun stuff because I was bribing Richie so he would go get a hair cut. Well it worked! He is finally not a shaggy dog and he didn't cry again. I am so glad the meltdowns during hair cuts are gone. That first one was brutal. I will never forget it. Some of our first smiles! (Unfortunately my camera memory card was full so this video got cut off)

Red Sox game with our pal Colton

Image
Another fun baseball game and this one we invited Richie's best bud Colton.  We used to invite our friends and now we invite the kids friends.  Luckily Colton's parents are our friends as well so a good time was had by all.   Since the Red Sox were playing the Yankees, Rich wore the special shirt Babci made for him (half Red Sox half Yankees).  He always gets a lot of attention from it.  And this time Angela really got into the game more than usual.  She was so excited from the second we told her we were going to the game.  She insisted on wearing her Red Sox hat and shirt.  She cracked up everyone on the train because of her outfit and how she just kept yelling about the Red Sox.  Big Papi is her favorite player and she yelled his name the whole game.  Check out the video!
