Great Grandparents

Tom and I have been so lucky to grow up with multiple grandparents and we are even more excited that our children have several Great-Grandparents. Here are a few recent pictures of my grandparents and one of Tom's grandmothers.

Elizabeth listening to the stories about
Grandmothers trips and adventures

Nana knows how to make Elizabeth giggle I really wish I have a video of their conversation - it was hysterical! Great Aunt Esther and Elizabeth

The most peaceful feeling in the world - a sleeping baby in your arms

Too cute I had to post

My brother V.J. and best friend Kate

My two Tom's - how handsome

March Flew By!!!

I know, I know - I always say that I am going to post more frequently and it never happens...I am trying to get better - I promise!!! Rather than telling you about all the fun things that took place during March Madness, I thought I would show you what we have been up to lately.....in reverse order.

Of course there was a very chilly Easter.... Tom is learning to sit up on his own and yes, my
son is wearing knee-highs.

Elizabeth is her typically giggly self.

Sweet Godfather, V.J., getting in some baby practice; now, if he could

only come home with us and rock Tom to sleep every night. It was Easter and the twins sat with the Easter Bunny at Brookwood Mall - the pictures turned out great!! It always amazes me how some random individual dresses in the huge bulky costume and I just give him (or her) my two small children to hold while I snap pictures. Looking back, what on Earth?!? I freak out when my friends and family try to hold Elizabeth and Tom at the same time and here I am trusting a stranger camouflaged in a white bunny suit?

I had to get a close up of the hairdo - complements of Grandmother Graffeo
It is somewhat spiky, or aka buttercup
Grandmother Powell comes to visit a couple times a week and loves
taking the twins for a stroll - hopefully this warm weather is here to stay! Tom's first four wheeler ride with Daddy.
Happy Birthday Granddaddy Graffeo!!! Granddaddy's birthday was also Saint Patrick's Day - hence the green outfits
Elizabeth did not have anything, so she borrowed Tom's hat.
which was a little snug. Saint Patty's Day was also Berkeley's Birthday -
I am so glad she shared her birthday dessert with me! DELICIOUS!!! Girlfriend Kate came to visit and the girls went shopping!
The twins are growing quickly and it is amazing to see them experience new things everyday. I appreicate ALL of your emails and encouragement about updating our blog - it is nice to know that you are so interested in our wonderful world of twins! Stay tuned for some great pictures for the Great - Grandparents!
