Well, on July 27th our little angel was born. Isalena Marie was 7lbs 4 oz and 18 1/2 inches long. At her two week appt. she was 8 lbs 2 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. She is growing like... well like our other children. Just wanted to throw a few pictures up and I will do more later!<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QVOg-kFI/AAAAAAAAAaA/6Bkxosqt7rY/s1600/DSC00744.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511790582063599698" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QVOg-kFI/AAAAAAAAAaA/6Bkxosqt7rY/s320/DSC00744.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QUrJ0e1I/AAAAAAAAAZ4/l5Du9oG2eko/s1600/DSC00733.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511790572571229010" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QUrJ0e1I/AAAAAAAAAZ4/l5Du9oG2eko/s320/DSC00733.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QUW_WUHI/AAAAAAAAAZw/7qusfwkl7mk/s1600/DSC00724.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511790567158599794" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QUW_WUHI/AAAAAAAAAZw/7qusfwkl7mk/s320/DSC00724.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QTvJdwiI/AAAAAAAAAZo/zsk2M4G_iqo/s1600/DSC00722.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511790556463612450" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/TH3QTvJdwiI/AAAAAAAAAZo/zsk2M4G_iqo/s320/DSC00722.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>The Serre'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747224021400088818noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-484114009248701216.post-36672776934806874472009-11-16T11:46:00.000-08:002009-11-16T12:03:38.938-08:00Family Fun<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGtuQadjII/AAAAAAAAAZg/Wo0lqDhloC4/s1600/11_12_09+019.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404792038012849282" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGtuQadjII/AAAAAAAAAZg/Wo0lqDhloC4/s320/11_12_09+019.JPG" /></a> Last weekend we got to go to Denver to see Aunt Chara, who had gotten Joe tickets to the Broncos/Steelers game. We left Friday afternoon, but we got tickets to the Jazz game for Thursday night and decided to take the kids. JJ was in heaven, his eyes almost popped out of his head! When the crowd was cheering "De-fense" he wanted to join in and cheered "be-friends". Chiara was also very excited to be there and half way through the first quarter she gasped and said "Mom, the Jazz are 20, that means they are winning!!!" It was a late game though, so at half time we asked the kids if they wanted to go home. At first Chiara said "No, I want to see who wins". When I told her we could check the scores at home the next day she looked at me with tired eyes and said "I guess we can go, I am a little sleepy". <br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGtt7Bkw7I/AAAAAAAAAZY/ne9CYya6dtw/s1600/11_12_09+033.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404792032271319986" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGtt7Bkw7I/AAAAAAAAAZY/ne9CYya6dtw/s320/11_12_09+033.JPG" /></a> While we were in Denver Chiara got to have a girls night with Aunt Chara and they went to see "Where the Wild Things Are". Joe and I took JJ to Buffalo Wild Wings. He was a little bit wild himself, I guess that was the theme for the evening, so the waiter brought him this hat and a balloon. Don't worry, Mark, we thought about you the whole time :)<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGttSawNyI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/auShQ_CTZac/s1600/11_12_09+038.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404792021371074338" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGttSawNyI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/auShQ_CTZac/s320/11_12_09+038.JPG" /></a> Chiara and I were playing with the camera in the car...<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGts4YemnI/AAAAAAAAAZI/bjiBO3Ite-Q/s1600/11_12_09+043.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404792014382209650" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGts4YemnI/AAAAAAAAAZI/bjiBO3Ite-Q/s320/11_12_09+043.JPG" /></a> We got to the game and realized our "Row 1" tickets really did mean the very front row. We had sooo much fun cheering, and I heard I was on TV. The Steelers won and we got on the train to head back to the car we parked in the RTD parking lot only to find...<br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGtst8uJhI/AAAAAAAAAZA/pkJoNS8UQMI/s1600/11_12_09+065.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5404792011581433362" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SwGtst8uJhI/AAAAAAAAAZA/pkJoNS8UQMI/s320/11_12_09+065.JPG" /></a> Yup, the back window was smashed in. Whoever did it also vandalized 12 other cars in the same lot. The crazy thing is that they didn't steal a thing, they didn't even get in the car. Kind of put a damper on an otherwise perfect vacation! Thanks Chara for the awesome weekend!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>The Serre'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747224021400088818noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-484114009248701216.post-20322596898419901642009-08-02T15:17:00.000-07:002009-08-02T16:10:38.790-07:00Cabin Pictures<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5365495853634268546" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SnYSDR-zrYI/AAAAAAAAAXM/GJdbE5AebdA/s320/07_28_09+064.JPG" /><br />We got to go up to the cabin over the 24th.

So we drove to Vernal to pick up Grandpa and Grandma and drove through Rocky Mountain National Park to spend some time in Estes Park. It was awesome! We saw hundreds of Elk, some bighorn sheep, and the chipmunks ate peanuts out of our hands. I would definately recommend this to anyone, very beautiful and relaxing vacation!!!<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig293vrskI/AAAAAAAAAUY/xzb9ifd4B-U/s1600-h/05_28_09+068.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343581394438959682" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig293vrskI/AAAAAAAAAUY/xzb9ifd4B-U/s320/05_28_09+068.JPG" /></a> Chiara feeding and trying to pet a chipmunk.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig29qokVgI/AAAAAAAAAUQ/AkoyrCzm93M/s1600-h/05_28_09+034.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343581390919456258" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig29qokVgI/AAAAAAAAAUQ/AkoyrCzm93M/s320/05_28_09+034.JPG" /></a> Our little family in downtown Estes Park.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig29cPbOGI/AAAAAAAAAUI/zybM4QozHsk/s1600-h/05_28_09+025.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343581387055904866" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig29cPbOGI/AAAAAAAAAUI/zybM4QozHsk/s320/05_28_09+025.JPG" /></a> Chiara and JJ way up at the top of Rocky Mountain National Park.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig29HPvJgI/AAAAAAAAAUA/GxI8OsnoEBo/s1600-h/05_28_09+030.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343581381420066306" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig29HPvJgI/AAAAAAAAAUA/GxI8OsnoEBo/s320/05_28_09+030.JPG" /></a> All of us up on top freezing in our summer clothes.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig28ysvIUI/AAAAAAAAAT4/3TdUVnbmCJ0/s1600-h/05_28_09+018.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343581375904555330" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/Sig28ysvIUI/AAAAAAAAAT4/3TdUVnbmCJ0/s320/05_28_09+018.JPG" /></a> Awwww, aren't we cute?

So far the helmet is doing it's job. The measurements have changed from 1 cm difference to .7 cm. He is trying to be like Harry Potter. I put him in his jumper and he turned around into the pantry and grabbed the broom. He was realy proud of himself, as you can see by his big, cheesy grin. I laughed and laughed and he smiled even bigger. I love my little wizard!The Serre'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747224021400088818noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-484114009248701216.post-28965972575037325262008-05-29T14:04:00.000-07:002008-05-29T14:11:23.670-07:00The Three Amigos<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SD8bGjTHbMI/AAAAAAAAAJE/Pqgpko30KA0/s1600-h/04_30_08+001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5205909493632167106" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SD8bGjTHbMI/AAAAAAAAAJE/Pqgpko30KA0/s320/04_30_08+001.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br />We took a trip out to North Carolina at the end of April to visit Joe's brother and his family. Chiara had a blast playing with her cousins, especially the twins Alyssa (big, cheesy, toothy grin) and Rachel. Even though she hadn't seen them in a year and a half, they picked up right where they left off and played their little hearts out.The Serre'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747224021400088818noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-484114009248701216.post-20846690663677495952008-04-21T12:51:00.000-07:002008-04-21T12:54:45.384-07:00Lil' Walker<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SAzwstR-T1I/AAAAAAAAAI8/IZUtGJ0yuf8/s1600-h/3_28_08+021.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191789121311231826" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/SAzwstR-T1I/AAAAAAAAAI8/IZUtGJ0yuf8/s320/3_28_08+021.JPG" border="0" /></a> JJ loves to spend time in his walker and I caught his beautiful smile. This is before he got his helmet, I still haven't downloaded those pictures. Yesterday JJ said his first word... over and over again.

Chiara was so good to hold JJ up for the pictures. Unfortunately he is a little wiggley and right after this picture he did a little head dive into the concrete. Oh well, it was really cute while it lasted!The Serre'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747224021400088818noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-484114009248701216.post-10089363866781855222008-03-06T16:42:00.000-08:002008-03-06T16:46:47.264-08:00Best Buddies<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/R9CPwKzKk9I/AAAAAAAAAIs/1tky9_jtsng/s1600-h/3_6_08+011.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174794029544149970" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Y6MmFt6t6hQ/R9CPwKzKk9I/AAAAAAAAAIs/1tky9_jtsng/s320/3_6_08+011.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Chiara just loves her little brother. She knows exactly what to do to cheer him up if he is feeling sad and she absolutely loves having her picture taken with him. JJ smiles a lot, but rarely on que with the camera ready. Mostly we just get this "deer in the headlights" look because of the flash. </div><div>JJ just got over his second ear infection in a month and we found out today that now Chiara has an ear infection. I guess those are the joys of winter!</div>The Serre'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13747224021400088818noreply@blogger.com6
