Just couldn't wait!!!!!!

We are having Paulie baptised next weekend....and well, I just couldn't wait to put up pics of him in his outfit! Tell me this is not the cutest little boy you have ever seen!!!!!!!! He looks like he is the little Dutch boy! Too cute!

He actually stopped, stood still and smiled for the camera. Oh my boy!

I never thought it would happen.....

But it did. Blue's Clues has been REPLACED. That is right, people! I said REPLACED!!!!!! By Little Bill. William has fallen in loved with Little Bill. It is about a preschool aged boy, Little Bill, his family and the adventures that he gets in to. It is nice to not have to hear so much about Blue's Clues and to hear some new music, voices, storyline, dialogue, and morals. I must say though, I do miss Blue and her crew....did not think I would, but I do. She was/is one crazy blue little puppy. Joe is still my favorite over Steve....any day! If you have NO IDEA what I am blogging about you can click on my two links or just forget about it until you have kids of your own.

America's next top model....by William Capozzoli

Here are some shots of William's favorite subject, Paulie. He is America's Next Top Model....at least in our house! Enjoy the shots.

Love the hair...it is just too cute.

So proud of himself wearing his Christmas slippers and walking.

Striking a pose.

Paulie and the television

William has found the digital camera, and well, it is now his favorite toy. I don't even realize that he has taken the camera and is shooting away at pictures. His favorite subject is his brother Paul. He also loves to take pictures of objects....balls in a row, blocks in a row, the side of his red toy tote. So, here are some pictures William took of Paulie watching tv. And yes, that is my foot in the picture. I swear, I did not know these shots were being taken. Enjoy the colors.

Teeth, teeth, and more teeth

William has gone to see the dentist three times for a cleaning since he turned three and has LOVED it each time. During our second cleaning the dentist noticed that he had chipped a tooth and asked us to watch it because it could turn into a cavity. We did everything you could to try and prevent it, but alas the cavity formed. We scheduled an appointment to fill the cavity with out dentist in town.

We went for our appointment and the MINUTE William walked into the "cavity room" he knew what was going to happen and you could see the fear rise. Every time we have gone for a cleaning someone has been in the cavity room crying....my child is VERY aware and VERY smart. He wanted no part of being in the cavity room and promptly decided to not cooperate. The dentist knew that William liked coming and did not want to ruin any future visit. She kindly referred us to a dentist that would sadate him....if needed. And, on the way out of the cavity room, William says to me "I only want to be in this room, Mommy. Not the other room."

Today was our big day going to the new dentist. Of course it had to be a major outing. First, the dentist is in Pensacola. Second, the roads are closed ALL day. Third, I needed someone to help me watch Paul because Kevin is in Ranger cycle, and honestly, my focus is William. I asked our friend, Kim, to watch Paul, and since the roads are closed all day, she came with me to make a day of it.

We get to the dentist office. They see William and we decide to try and fill the cavity. In the middle of a mix-up I learn that they are going to us different materials than my dentist and that the filling will probably take no more than 5 minutes! They don't even have to sadate William! Before I knew it, his tooth was repaired...good as new. He was so great and so cooperative! Paulie even got a free exam! What a great day at the dentist.

It's all over now!!!!!

Yup, it has happened! The beast has been unleashed! Paulie, AKA Paul Capozzoli, is offically WALKING! That's right. I have two boys now walking and talking. Well, one that is talking....the other one is squealing. Sometimes with delight, pride, or just for the fun of it. Scroll down to the video section of the blog to see the two videos of the walker. These were taken Monday night when he took his first steps.

Oh, and sorry for the posting delay.....you already know my grip about the internet connection...and we have had power outages. At least there is some video. Enjoy.

Trying to keep up.

I have been trying to keep up with the posts, but as you can tell by the datelines...time has gotten away from me. I have not taken new pictures....so this post is just a written one. For those of you who only check in for pics....check back later. For others, continue on.

Kevin is training hard to try out for a new Army job. If he gets it, we will stay in...if not, we will probably get out. So, he has been on this new lifestyle kick. He has lost about 20 lbs! I need to do a before and after picture. I will try soon....check back. And since the results were so great for him, I decided to try it for myself. I have lost about 5-6 lbs. But for me, that is great. I am back in my pre-baby jeans....still a bit tight in some areas....but that is what the Paulie gets ya!

I will try to take some pics over the weekend. The Capozzoli Grandparents are visiting, so that does lend itself to photo opportunities. Again, check back and see if I get a post up.
