it is so hard for me to believe that a year ago today my babies were tiny little 5lb 14oz and 6olb 9oz bundles barely fitting into newborn size clothes and now today they are bubbly smiley kids eating cupcakes!! time flies by, especially when you become a parent. and its sad for me to think that this year has gone by particularly fast because with 3 kids, i feel like i have missed a lot. even though i am here with them everyday - there is just always so much going on. my hope for the coming year is that with the twins gain of developed independence we as a family have more time for fun things like playing and reading books, with less time spent on bottle feedings and diaper changes!
so now i get to live the next 6 months saying "i have one 2 year old and two 1 year olds!!"
matteo wasnt quite sure what to do with his cupcake...i dont think he was to fond of the idea of getting his hands dirty! but once he figured it out, there was definitely a mess to be cleaned!
vincenzo on the other hand had his cupcake demolished before i could turn around with the camera in my hand...he was shoveling that thing in his mouth faster than his mouth could keep up with!
once the cupcakes were eaten it was straight to the bathtub!! they were up to their elbows in cake, literally!! but thats whats fun about being one!! you can smash cake all over the place and people just think its cute...if you or i did that people would probably be talking!
and now sunday i get to do it all over again!! although, i will have more help with the clean up sunday...frank was working all day today so it was just me and tuscan singing happy birthday to the babes, and mandy and the girls sent their birthday wishes via mandy's blog!! (which made me cry by the way!!) if anyone would like to see it, pull up "a day in the life" link on the side of my page and look at mandy's blog entry!! its so wonderful to have such amazing friends! i truly am a very blessed woman!

I can't believe they're 1 either!! Cute pictures! And here's to enjoying the next stage with your 3 boys!
Looks like the boys enjoyed their cupcakes! I know I have said this already but I wish we were closer to celebrate these special times together. You are right about our lives, no matter how far apart we are we will always be sisters! I just wish our kids could spend day to day life together! But I have also learned from them that even though they only see each other a couple times a year they dont forget. That was my biggest faer when we moved away but I have been pleasently suprised. Lucia talks about Tuscan all the time! If you ask her who she is going to marry guess who she says!! To cute!! Love ya!
