David's Baptism weekend

David Carl was baptized last weekend, and here are a few shots from Saturday's events.

The 5 Maine Dimitris.....after the church ceremony. We all look like we are blinded because this was the only sun that we have seen in 20-something days. No joke.


Uncle Jeff and Henry.....one of Henry's godfathers.

David sitting on Uncle Tom's lap after brunch. Opening presents!!


That what big brothers are for, right? Opening presents??!!

Night at the Roxbury...on 8 Fern Street

David does not stop moving, and LOVES music. Here D.C. is listening to Daddy sing a little diddy and grooving on the living room floor.

recent happenings...

David loves his bath time, and especially when I let him play with the cup. This one is from a White Sox game back in '04, I think....I was pregnant with Paul!! And I think that it was $1 hot dog night.....oh, that was a fun night!! Jane and Jon were there too. Can't wait to see them in 1 month!



Here David and Brian are playing together. Bri was pretending that David was riding on a horse. Of course, Brian was making excellent sound effects, like we all know that he can. ;)
David LOVED it!! David's hair just keeps on growing..... He is like a new, fluffy chick....


Here, Bri caught the 2 younger boys having some fun on the floor. Watch until the end....I think that Henry is ready for Family Feud with that lightning fast hand on the "buzzer"....

last day of Pre K....where does the time go?

It seems like just yesterday that Paul was going to his FIRST day of pre-K, and now look, the year is over. Hard for me to believe. He has grown in so many ways over the past year, and his dad and I are SOOOO proud of him! This picture is of Paul doing his art walk. We picked up all of his recent art projects that were displayed in the hallway.

On his first day of summer vacation (today), he woke up telling me that he wanted to play school, and promptly got out his clip-on tie. Was he born to the right mother, or what?? Playing school, yippee!! He also told me this morning at breakfast, "Mom! I am a kindergartener now!"

Here Paul is singing and acting out a song about a kite at the pre K celebration performance.

Here he is singing the song "Hi, my name is Joe" I work in a button factory....remember that one from the bonfire, Marczak family??!! He is using his tongue to turn the button, along with his hands and everything else.....


This is a picture of one of Paul's best friends from preK...Jacob.


Here Paul is receiving his completion certificate and shaking his teacher's hand (Mrs Finnegan), and Mrs Bureau (his other teacher) is right next to her. The rest of the class is sitting on the floor ("on their squares").



Here he is singing the song, "Clap my crazies out". I think that I may have to learn this song. It was pretty funny, and Paul especially loved the jumping part (with his new sneaks) ! Can't wait to see what the next year of school brings....READING, I think!!

Happy Tuesday......Pre-K Celebration Day!


Paul's last day of pre-K is today, and they are having a celebration! I will post some pictures, and hopefully a video later today, or tomorrow from that. But for now, we have a new picture from David at dinner last night. And below is a video of Henry launching, yet another Lego rocket!
3 more days of school until Bri gets out of school (19th)!!!

Happy Monday!!

Here are a couple of new ones of the boys.....Paul loves to lie down next to David-o and hang out....or maybe it is because the camera comes out to take a picture of the baby, and Paul like that?? Hmmmmm........

Here Henry is in the "igloo" in the sunroom, doing some puzzles. Henry loves puzzles, and is GREAT at playing by himself. What a great little boy he can be, when he wants to be. ; ) The "terrible 2's" are almost over..... let's just say that he is testing the boundaries around here. But on a more exciting note, is enjoying pottytraining!! YIPPEE!!! Maybe by the end of summer we will only have David-o in diapers, Henry in overnights, and Paul out of the overnights.....the changing table drawer looks like a CVS shelf, with all the different types of diapers in there. : )



almost summer vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take me out to the ballgame!

I love going to the Seadogs games! Portland is so close, the seats are always good, the price is right, and it is always fun!! Uncle John came with Bri, Paul and I this time. We had a great time and Paul didn't ask once what time were we leaving this year. I guess he is growing up!!



like father, like son......


How excited is Brian, that Paul loves baseball.....

What 4 year old doesn't like the looks of this hot fudge sundae??
( and even has a little leftovers for his uncle.... ; )

Auburn's Blue Angels

Brian showed Paul and Henry the Van Halen video for the song "Dreams", and ever since they can't just listen to the song....there has to be "flying".

Here is the new video, starring the Auburn Blue Angels!!

Thank you Aunt Katie and Uncle Ben!

From France, Uncle Ben and Aunt Katie Dimitri sent David a very generous gift card to Target, and as previously mentioned, we drove to Target on Saturday. David had a blast picking out all kinds of new things, and below is a video of his new favorite toy (which also seems to be Henry new favorite toy too!!)

Two down, one to go......

We took a family trip south to Target this weekend and bought Henry's official, original Big Wheel. He was very excited to be just like a "big boy" (Paulie!!) and ride around the driveway. His legs are just short of the pedals, but Brian put some wood blocks on the pedals so that Henry's legs will reach now (of course, we can take the blocks off later....).



AND they're OFF!!!
