Rainy Kings Island

This past weekend we went to King’s Island for the first time this year.  My cousin-in-law’s company rents out the park, so we got tickets through her and got to go during her company’s day. Saturday was absolutely beautiful, with the weather at 75F and clear skies.  Unfortunately, we went to King’s Island on Sunday, …

Soccer Mom / Coach

It’s official…I’m a soccer Mom, and Nick is an assistant soccer coach! Bryson had his first soccer game last Friday.  I don’t think he really knew what to expect.  The day of his soccer practice, he told me he did not want to go.  Eventually he warmed up to the idea, with promises of running …

Easter and Opening Day

Last weekend was busy!  We celebrated Easter at Grandma and Grandpa Slattery’s.  It was complete with a neighborhood Easter Egg hunt upon arrival.  Mya loved picking up all the “balls” (eggs), as she crawled from egg to egg and put them in her basket.  She then clapped after she put each in. Bryson had fun running from egg …

Mya – 16 Months

Today, Mya is 16 months.  She’s getting to be such a big girl with her own opinions on everything.  Remember how last month, everything that she was doing was super fun and super cute?  Well, she’s still super fun, but the little toddler personality is starting to show up.  Fun is, er, one word for …

A Grand Voyage

We finally were able to travel to Chicago to visit the newest addition to the Felicelli clan.  Marin was born in January but our first travel attempt was thwarted by the midwest weather dumping snow on us.  Our second attempt succeeded though. On the way up we saw some flurries…uh oh.  We drove through 3 snow …

Doctor’s Visits

We went to the doctor 3 times this previous week.  3 times! The first visit was on Monday for Bryson.  He was sick after Brown County, with a fever and seal like cough throughout the night.  I thought he had croup, based on the awful sound of his cough.  At the visit, we found out that …

Brown County

This past weekend we went to Brown County State Park for our annual spring trip.  It was a fun little getaway with lots of the normal fun things:  hanging out with cousins, swimming in the pool, checking out the huge stuffed owl and chipmunk, etc.  The kids had a ton of fun! The coolest (and new) …

Mya – 15 Months

Mya is now 15 months.  The biggest developments over the past month have all been around her vocabulary.  She’s saying somewhere between 5 to 10 words.  Her favorite things to say are probably “Dada”, “Kizzie”, “Uh-Oh” and “Buh-Bye”.  She also still loves to make animal sounds; monkey, dog, and cat are some of her favorites. …

The “Tube” Fairy

Bryson went back to his ear doctor earlier this week, because one of his tubes was blocked with ear wax.  When we got to the ear doctor, we found out that the tube was actually out, just stuck in some ear wax in his ear canal.  The doctor removed the ear tube, and told Bryson …
