Tyler

Tyler isn't just a great kid, he has a way of decorating too. We made fruit pizza and Tyler got to decorate it and this is what he did. It's beautiful! While Tyler was here we took him to Venice for the first time. We rode the vaparretto (water bus) from the train station to San Marco Square. from there we walked a short distance to the Hard Rock Cafe Venice to eat lunch.......which turned into a early dinner. The wait there was a little long seeing as they only have 25 tables (upstairs) for dining. The waitress told us that it took them 3 years to get the approval from the Italian govt. to build the Hard Rock, what a feat. I must say it was worth the wait to get to eat there.

This was our view from the vapparetto towards the train station. This is a church that is right next to the station.

The kids and hanging out with Daddy

It has been awhile and we have been busy here at the Fuselier house. These are a few of the pictures of the kids.

Norah and Daddy

Daddy and Tyler playing NorahOnce Norah sees me I am done for, she wants nothing to do with her Daddy after that. This is a picture of her trying to push off from Daddy to get to me.Tyler checking his e-mail on his new laptop that we gave him for his birthday. We are so proud of him, he did so well in school.....straight A's!!

Norah hanging out with Mommy before we have to get ready for bed.

I wonder what she is thinking.

That's my girl!

Okay, there is a story behind this face. As a parent we all make sounds that we never thought were possible. Well, I can make and elephant sound (much like Eddie Murphy off Daddy Daycare) that makes Norah smile. This is her trying to make the exact same sound, it is too cute.

The kids sitting with Dad before getting ready for bed. I love this part of my day.

Norah doing what she does best......sleeping.

Since my last posting of Norah sleeping, I have captured some of the cutest pictures to date of her sleeping. She has now reached the "sleeping with the butt in the air" stage. Here are just a few of the ones I wanted to share.Norah and Daddy getting ready to sit outside and take a nap. Norah LOVES to sit in the backyard and listen to the sprinkler while she takes her early evening nap.

Family Pictures

Well, today was the perfect day for us to get our family pictures taken outside at Serrinissima it is a small town that we take Bella to swim in the river, chase ducks, and throw her stick around. This place has a lot of meaning to us and we are very happy that Mike was able to capture the beauty of Italy.
The photos have just been uploaded onto the photographers site and look amazing. The great thing about this site the photographer has made is that you personally can choose which picture you like best and would go with a frame that you like, and have it send to your home. Go on take a look http://mikehaworth.zenfolio.com/ Let him and I know what you think of the pictures. I will post the photos once I download them.

Norah's First Swim

Wednesday when the weather was nice and HOT, so Dennis and I took the kids to the pool. Here is Tyler, Norah and I before entering the pool. Look how handsome tyler is getting! He even made a (girl) friend by the name of Jalexa, the Fuselier charm still works. Norah and Daddy Daddy taking Norah into the big pool for the first time (notice her feet aren't in the water yet).

Now her feet are in the water!

"Mom, tell Dad to take me to the kiddie pool, I hear it's warmer over there."

(what a face she's giving me) "Now that's what I am talking about."

Giving kisses to Daddy.

Her first taste of chlorine water.......and I know it won't be her last!

Just playing around

"Mom, I think I am getting hungry."

"It's sooooo blue." How big is Norah? She's SOOOOO BIG!

Look Mom, I can stand!

I LOVE Squash......says Norah.

Last Monday we gave Norah her first taste of Squash. She made the cutest faces, almost like that old bitter beer face commercial with the old man.

This is Norah before her first bite.....

In it goes.....

I guess she likes it after all. Mom, give me more.....and hurry it up!
