Our first blog.....

So, Tony and I figured we would start this blog page, so that the families can log into this and check on updates about the kids, as well as us. We can post pictures and let you know how all our life adventures are going.

Obviously, by now, most or all of you know that Tony and I got engaged. We haven't set a date, but we are leaning towards June of 2010. As soon as we know more details I will let you know. The kids seem super excited about it.

Emma is well, she has Straight A's in class. They tested her reading level and it's on a 7th grade level. They put her math at 4th grade level, so needless to say 3rd grade has been a breeze for her. She is getting honored at the school next Tuesday the 27th. Each teacher had to pick one student in their class that best represented the word RESPECT ans Emma was the one chosen. I will be taking pictures, don't worry. She is also going to be starting softball and golf, and will resume soccer soon too.

Maya started her gymnastics and LOVES it....she just loves wearing the leotard more than anything. She watched in amazement as Obama took his inauguration. It was interesting to see this 5 year old comprehend what history was being made. She and Emma have a modeling job on Valentine's day at the mall for the make-up store Mac. They are coming out with a line of make up inspired by Hello Kitty and the girls are standing outside the store wearing kitty ears and passing out cupcakes. Maya is in heaven because they told her she would get free lip gloss.

Ava is 4 1/2 months now, and the HAPPIEST baby ever. She smiles all the time, she laughs and coos and babbles. She looks like she will be sitting on her own in the next month. She is teething a lot too. She is at 15 ponds and a very long baby with a big ole' head...lol.

We miss you all, and hope you check on this often.

With love,
Cindi.
