Angelo's Blog

See Ya!!!

2010-08-22T11:27:00.000-07:00

Well, this is my last post! Gina attempted a hostile take over of my blog but after a lengthy and enthusiatic 'discussion,' we decided that combining our blogs would be best.

Of course, Gina didn't see things my way until I started chewing the nose off of her favorite doll but, hey, we got there in the end. I wanted to call our blog 'Angelo and Gina's Blog' but after dangling my stuffed puppy, Goo, over the toilet, Gina convinced me that 'Gina and Angelo's Blog' would be better.

It may have gotten off to a rocky start but we are both excited! We think that our new blog will be super cool!

OK! I'll Admit It!!!!

2010-08-14T15:38:00.000-07:00

All right! All right!!!!

You caught me!

I'll admit it!

...

I love my big sister!

...

And I look awesome in stripes!!!

Party at My Crib!

2010-08-09T13:37:00.000-07:00

Well, here it is! My first full night in my crib. I only woke up once to eat. I can't help it! I was wasting away to practically nothing!!!
Mommy was really happy that I slept in my crib. If she just would have told me from the begining that Pappy made the crib I might not have given her such a hard time...

Yeah, I would have, just for funsies.

Ummm....Not So Much!

2010-08-05T15:45:00.000-07:00

Ok, I just got used to the bananas and Mommy has to hit me with this apple sauce stuff!
Whew! This stuff is rough!
I'm not positive since this is only the second thing that I ever ate but I'm pretty sure this is what sour tastes like!

They call me Mister Dimples

2010-07-31T11:26:00.000-07:00

I may be a little high maitenance....

but I'm totally worth it!

My dimples alone are worth at least 7 or 8 hundred diaper changes!

HULK SMASH!!!

2010-07-23T10:18:00.000-07:00

My personal fitness goal is to outweigh my big sister by the time I'm nine months old. I have 2 and a half pounds and two and a half months to go. This should be a snap!

MOMMY!!!!!!! Bring me some more smooshed bananas and rice cereal!

Par-tay!!!!

2010-07-18T16:41:00.000-07:00

Mommy, Gina, and I went to a super fun party at Cousin David and Sarah's house. It was great to see everyone but, boy, was it hot! I must have inherited Mommy's Irish skin. Heat makes me turn a lovely shade of pink. Thankfully, Mommy took pity on me!
Yea-ha!!! That's what I'm talking about! I might as well show off my moobies while I'm little enough for it to be cute!

This is me and Cousin David. It was his party and his house was super nice!

Here's me and Cousin Dan. This guy cracks me up!

And here I am with Great Aunt Lori. Great Uncle Dave is behind us. And, of course, Pappy G is back there too!!!!

Coolio!!!

2010-07-13T13:00:00.000-07:00

I guess as far as sisters go, Gina isn't too bad! She said that I was big enough to play with her walk-around. She even showed me how to play with all of the toys.
I like to punch this fish in the face and pull its tail.

Thanks, Gina! You're pretty cool!!

...

For a girl!

I'm Not so Sure About This!

2010-07-06T14:44:00.000-07:00

Mommy and Daddy thought that it might be time for me to try some big people food. Ehh...whatever makes them happy.

Mommy smashed up a little bit of banana. My big sister, Gina, loves the things so they must not be too bad.

Hmmm...bananas are OK, I guess. Don't see what the fuss is all about though. I think that big people food is pretty overrated!

This Thing is Pretty Cool!

2010-06-21T13:25:00.000-07:00

Now, I normally don't throw in with baby toys. I'm just way too mature! I would much rather play some Modern Warfare 2 or beat Daddy at a few games of Settlers. But Gina gave me this play matt thing. It's pretty fun!!!

...ummm....I mean it's OK...for a baby toy and all!
It has flashing lights and music and all of these toys that hang down.
If I'm super fast and sneaky, I can even catch one, once in a while!

SHAZAM!!! Got one!

I can't reach the lame-o butterflies. They are just out of reach...they think that they are so smart. HA!! This purple butterfly isn't going to think it's such hot stuff after I give it a good kick in it's stupid butterfly face!

Grrrr!!!

2010-06-07T09:47:00.000-07:00

I sure wish Mommy would stop taking pictures of me drooling....

I look like an escapee from the mental ward!

Nap...Interrupted

2010-06-01T09:51:00.000-07:00

I was sitting on the couch playing with Mommy, when all of the sudden....BAM!!! I feel asleep. What can I say, I had a rough day of eating and pooping my pants. Besides, I take my naps very seriously.
ARRGGGHHHHH!!!! Woman!!! Step off! I'm soooo ratting you out to Mommy!!!

Not even Gina could interrupt this nap!

2010-05-26T15:59:00.000-07:00

Yes, I fell asleep on the couch.

Yes, I am drooling...

What can I say, I had a rough night!!

Check This Out!

2010-05-13T09:48:00.000-07:00

Whoa! This is crazy! Look at these things. I like to stare at them. I think that they might actually be attached to me!!!!

If I concentrate REALLY hard, I can even open and close it and make it move. Mommy said that they are called 'hands.' Whatever. All I know is that I gotta get these things under control. I'm getting sick of punching myself in the nose!!!!

I am the Rain King!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-05-07T06:22:00.001-07:00

I love when Mommy sings to me!!!! Sometimes, she sings lame songs like 'Baa, Baa Black Sheep' or 'Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.' I mean, that kind of stuff is OK but that's not how I roll. I want to rock to some Counting Crows or Slipknot...maybe a little Fray or Coldplay.

My most favorite song is 'The Rain King.' As soon as Mommy starts singing 'I belong...in the service of the queen. I belong...anywhere but in between' I get so excited that I can't control myself!! I start singing right back!

'I AM THE RAIN KING...'

'Yeah!!!!'

Gina and Me

2010-05-04T13:21:00.001-07:00

OK!!! Fine! I'll admit it! As far as big sisters go, Gina isn't TOO gross. And I guess that she doesn't have THAT many cooties or girl germs.

But if you tell her that I said that, I'll totally deny it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My New Best Buddy!

2010-04-27T08:47:00.001-07:00

This is my best buddy, Gus! He's super nice. And he's super awesome. He was playing with Gina and her friend, Abbey, and the girl cooties didn't even bother him!!!

When Big Sisters Attack

2010-04-23T13:31:00.000-07:00

Ok, sad as this may be, I've had to resort to hiding behind the couch. My big sister, Gina, won't leave me alone. She keeps sneaking up on me and giving me kisses!!! Ewww! Girl germs!
Oh crap!! Here she comes!

I'll have to defend myself with my Fists of Fury!

Arrrgggggghh!

Life's Tough!!!

2010-04-11T08:50:00.000-07:00

Whew!!! I had a rough night of sleeping and eating! It's time for a nap!

Beefcake! BEEFCAKE!!

2010-04-01T16:24:00.000-07:00

I would like to give special thanks to 'Weight Gain 4000.' Follow your dreams, you can reach your goals. I'm living proof. Beefcake! BEEFCAKE!!

I'm 2 Months Old!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-03-24T07:49:00.000-07:00

Well, I made it! I'm two months old. I'm practically a grown-up!!!!
Mommy took me to the doctor today. I weigh 14 pounds, 10 ounces. I've gained 5 and a half pounds since I was born!! The doctor seems suitably impressed. She was also mesmerized by my ginormous dimples. What can I say, I got a way with the ladies!!!

Meeting Some New Friends

2010-03-23T06:46:00.000-07:00

I'm ever so popular! All of Daddy and Mommy's friends come over to visit me! I hope that Mommy and Daddy don't feel TOO bad about that. I mean, it isn't their fault that people like me better!

Here I am with Mr. Dan! He brought his two little girls over to play with my big sister, Gina. They were very nice but with Gina, Kama, and Katie here, there were just way too many girl cooties in the house!
And Miss Kasia. I'm so cute that Miss Kasia wanted to take me home with her! :)

This is Mr. Steve. He's fun because he makes funny noises and faces at me. If I could laugh yet, he would totally make me crack up!

This is Ms. Angela. She is going to have a baby in a few months!! I was extra good while she was holding me. I didn't cry or poop my pants or anything. I didn't want to scare her!

Smooches from My Big Sister

2010-03-02T11:10:00.000-08:00

Here I am, hanging out in the living room with Mommy and Gina. I know it looks like I'm sleeping but I'm not. I just closed my eyes every time Mommy tried to take a picture. That stupid flash gets on my last nerve!!
Plus, these outfits that Mommy puts on me are embarrassing!! She says that I look cute. I say that I look like an escaped inmate from baby jail!

And to top it all off, my big sister, Gina, keeps kissing me! Yuck-O! Girl germs!!!!

(I actually don't mind when my big sis gives me smooches but I have to pretend it bugs me in order to preserve my masculinity!)

Messing With Mommy!!

2010-02-26T13:20:00.000-08:00

I made sure that I stayed awake the entire time my big sister, Gina was taking her nap. Just because I keep Mommy awake at night doesn't mean she needs a nap during the day!!! When Gina woke up and Mommy went up to get her, I promptly feel asleep. I'm not worried though...
I mean, how could you be mad in the face of all of this cuteness????? :)

Me and Uncle Nick

2010-02-17T13:02:00.001-08:00

My big sister, Gina, told me all about my Uncle Nick and how totally cool he is!! He makes beer, just like my Daddy! He even comes all the way from Colorado to visit us!
This is when Gina was really little. Uncle Nick came to visit her, too! Our Uncle Nick is the best!

Making Beer with Daddy

2010-02-05T12:58:00.000-08:00

I've only been home for a few days and I'm helping my Daddy make beer already!!! My big sister, Gina helps Daddy too. It's really cool to hang out with Daddy in the Man Cave! We kick Mommy and Gina out and put up the 'No Girls Allowed' sign and just chill. Super awesome!!

Eleven Days and Counting

2010-02-03T16:13:00.000-08:00

OK. So I'm only 11 days old and I'm still trying to figure things out. Like, I know that eating and fuzzy footed pj's are good and getting a bath is NOT fun. I also figured out that I LOVE to snuggle. One of my favorite people to snuggle with is that guy in the picture with me. He's really awesome and he hugs me a lot!! I decided to name him 'Daddy'. I can't say it yet but I love him a whole big bunch!!!

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-01-24T19:53:00.000-08:00

Here I am!!!!!! I was just way too bored and cramped in there. It's a little scary out here though! But it's pretty cool. I love my Mommy and Daddy very much already. My big sister, Gina, is pretty cool too. I just wish that she would stop stealing my hat!!!

Gina has a totally awesome picture of my family on her blog. It's crazy out here but it's pretty cool to have a Daddy and Mommy and big sister who love you so much! :)

Arrghhhhh!

2010-01-19T12:48:00.000-08:00

Somebody let me outta here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dang It!!

2010-01-16T14:46:00.000-08:00

I guess that I'm not getting that dirt bike!!! :(

Sigh

2010-01-11T05:00:00.001-08:00

It is so BORING in here!!!! Plus, I can barely move! Arrgghh! Mommy and Daddy have to go to the hospital again tomorrow for another sonogram. I might decide to come out and meet everyone tomorrow. I'm bored and squished and Mommy promised me a dirt bike if I came out soon!

Latest Sonogram Pic

2010-01-06T08:28:00.001-08:00

Here's a pic from yesterday's sonogram. The technician seemed impressed by all of my hair. So, not only am I going weigh as much as my big sister when I'm born, I already have more hair than she does!

It's Getting Cramped in Here!

2010-01-05T01:37:00.000-08:00

Mommy had to get a sonogram today because the doctor told her that she was too big (being that I haven't been born yet, I know that I don't have much experience with this kind of stuff but it seems kind of dangerous to tell a woman that she is too big!). Anyway, I looked stellar in the sonogram, of course! The technician calculated that I already weigh 9 pounds, 3 ounces. Mommy seemed less than thrilled with this information. She just said that she wanted her epidural now and didn't want to wait for labor to start. I have no idea what an epidural is but I've been giving Mommy a hard time so if it will make her happy, I think that she should have one!!!
My big sister, Gina, weighs 22 pounds. She thinks that she'll be able to boss me around because she'll be bigger than me. HA! We'll see. Give me a couple of more weeks and we'll see whose bossing who around. It shouldn't be too hard to gain 12 more pounds during the next few weeks!

Here's Mommy!!!

2009-12-29T08:10:00.000-08:00

Ok, that's me in there. And I still have a month to cook! :) It's a good thing that Mommy loves me so much already!

It's Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2009-12-13T16:45:00.000-08:00

Well, here I am in all of my glory and splendor!!!! I'm trying to mind control Mommy into putting a picture of herself on my blog so that everyone can see how ginormous I am from the outside. She is being very uncooperative though. She says that she is not putting any pictures of herself on the Internet where she looks like a bloated water buffalo...
