Summer fun







This summer has been busy! Massimo is in swim lessons & gymnastics and loving both! Abrianna just started swim lessons and is loving the water...I am not loving how much splashing she does as I can't even keep my eyes open! Surely she is going to be just like big brother and crazy about the water. Abrianna is getting very close to walking but hasn't gotten that confidence yet, whereas Dante is finally standing up on his own but hasn't figured out cruising quite yet. The twins have a lot of fun together and fight over toys A LOT...actually all 3 do! Massimo asks me all the time if Dante & Abi "come out play" - to come out of their "cage" and play with him in "his" room - formerly our formal living room which is now cluttered with a train table and lots of toys! We're going to have to teach Massimo that it is not HIS room because it's soon to be all 3 of theirs! Our once spacious home has turned into rooms with toys!

This summer we've been to the Oakland Zoo, Alameda County Fair, swimming, trips to the park, and hopefully a vacation...oh I mean "trip" (it's not going to be a vacation with 3 kids) soon!

Fun at the SF Aquarium by the Bay

We took a trip to the SF Aquarium by the Bay today to satisfy Massimo's constant wish to "see the ocean and fishies". At the end of the day we asked Massimo if he had fun (yes, of course he says) and his most favorite thing was the...scuba diver! Yes, that's all he talked about when we asked him what he saw. Of course when we jogged his memory and talked about the fish and what we did he enjoyed "finding Nemo" (one of his favorite movies - and where the fascination of scuba divers all started...don't be surprised if that's what he ends up being for Halloween!) and touching the Stingray and sharks...and outside of the aquarium he got to see trains (Bart), trolleys, buses, and of course the ocean! It was all very exciting for him to be in a big city like that with so much variety around him...so many things to see. The twins loved it, too. Abrianna got to interact a lot more since she is walking and more able, it was a little hard to let Dante crawl so he got to snack and check it all out from stroller view. He did get out at the end in the toddler area and got to touch the sea urchins and he loved that so much! He got really excited watching all the fish swim by. It was a fun day (and tiring chasing after at least 2 and sometimes 3).
