In Richmond

It was Grandpa Sutera's birthday so we went to Richmond to surprise him.

He was very surprised!!!

When we were there we took Carmine swimming in a big pool for the first time. He didn't like his life vest, but he loved the pool. He went under the water and didn't even cry.

Braxton's day

Here is Braxton, he is now almost 7 months old. I think he weighs about 19-20 lbs. He is such a loving baby, he loves to cuddle me. Anthony says he will never cuddle him the way he does to me. I am lucky!
I put Braxton in this one day and he just decided he didn't want to lay in it anymore, so he sat up.
Here he is having tummy time. I wonder when he will start crawling?
Carmine saw Braxton on the ground and decided he wanted to lay by him. I ran to get the camera hoping he would stay there, and he did!

What a cute picture.

Playing in the dirt

Anthony's work had a party and it was at a camp ground like park. Carmine had so much fun wandering around and picking up every stick and rock he saw.
He loves to play in the dirt.
Braxton and Carmine had a long day playing.
Carmine loves to give his little brother toys to play with.

Isn't that nice toy he gave him.

Carmine's Summer fun!

This was Carmine's first time in a kiddy pool. At first he didn't like it cause it was to cold, but he got used to it real quick. He had lots of fun!!
We were at Grandma Sutera's house and we didn't have any pool toy's. A whisk and measuring cups work even better.
Carmine was eating spaghetti and of course got it all over his face. I think every mother has a picture of their kid with food all over their face.
This is his first train ride! There is a park near us and it has a train that goes around it. He loved the train, but then again what doesn't he like.

Carmine going postal!

We tried to send this Special Delivery, but it was returned to sender due to insufficient postage. He was about 7 months old in this pic.
