Introducing Brooklyn!

Brooklyn is a tiny toy yorkie that we got from Brooklyn, New York, so of course, that is where we got her name. She was 1 pound 6 ounces when we got her, and now is 2 pounds 9 ounces. She is still super small and won't get that much bigger. She was paper trained and has gone to the bathroom outside since day one, and is very much a lap dog. We have had her for a little more than a month and myself, and the rest of the family love her!! Welcome to the fam Brooklyn!

Kaiden on piano

Kaiden on the guitar

Kaiden and his music

We have finally begun activities with Kaiden. He is currently doing music lessons, specializing in guitar, as well as taking ice hockey lessons. He is still too young to start T-ball, soccer, or football, but we hope to get him into those things next summer at some point.
He definitely likes the drums also, it might have something to do with the fact that we have a set at our house for the kids!!

He does like singing into the microphone, then again is there any kid that doesn't?
He doesn't really like the piano, but they have him try it to see the different sounds it makes.

NEW ADDRESS!!

As most of you know or have heard, after returning from Aruba, Bill and I finally bought a house. It is literally one street over from the apartment where we used to live. It is a 2 story 3 family house, where one apartment is one bedroom, another is two bedrooms, and the third apartment is 4 bedrooms. We are currently living in the apartment that is 4 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms. It is a big change moving from 688 sq. ft. We actually have room and all the kids have their own rooms. For those of you that have not yet got our address from pictures that have been sent it is:
5 Village Street
Apt C
Deep River, CT 06417
It feels great to be a homeowner!!

Everyone in Aruba drove around in super small compact cars or Jeep's, here is the little Toyota Yaris, we had the pleasure of renting.
