I love this! Not only is it hilarious, but everything he says is so true! Why can't we just be happy with what we have? We are all so blessed to have everything we do! I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Bright Sunny Days
The weather has been so incredibly nice lately that Gianni and I have been taking walks on a daily basis. Here are pictures on how our walk went. 1: trying on mommy's sunglasses 2(upper left): Wide eyed and bushy tailed 3(bottom right and bottom left): out for the count.
Super Bubby!
Domenic and Gianni have a favorite game hat they play, it is called superman, as you can see from the pictures we have a superhero baby on our hands :) Here is how the game goes. Dom lays on the ground on his back and gianni sits on his stomach kneeling. Usually Gianni will start to lean forward smiling (like the bottom left picture) and then will proceed to kick his legs out, at which point Domenic lifts him into the air and makes a "whoosh" sound. Gianni goes crazy for it, in fact he usually starts crying when Dom stops. Anyways, here are some pics :)

3 Months and...Walking??
Okay, so he obviously Isn't walking, but the kid is super strong, he has been pulling himself up while sitting on our laps for about a week now! He hates being on his belly, but LOVES standing up and looking around. It almost makes me wonder if he is going to be walking before he crawls... We never cease to be amazed with this little guy :)
Here is another standing video, oh, and please disregard the lack of pants. What can I say? He's a baby!
And, in case you haven't noticed, Gianni is such a ham for the camera, already and he's only 3 months old! But he definitely knows what the camera is and always shows off for it :) I love the very end of the video how Domenic starts to laugh, and he gets startled by it haha classic.

Life
I know I have done a million posts about gianni, but I thought I might share a little bit of what's going on in our crazy lives too.
Today Domenic ends his internship with KPMG (for those of you who don't know KPMG is one of the top 4 accounting firms in the U.S.). He has been working his tail off, and I mean literally. He leaves the house at 7:15 am and doesn't get home until 8 pm (and that's if we're lucky). He has had quite a few days where he didn't get home until 11 pm-12 am not to mention that he worked EVERY single Saturday since January 7th. It has been a huge blessing for him to have gotten a paid internship, especially in this economy, but i'm happy it's over. Needless to say I am super super excited to have him be done, and home to hang out with gianni and I.
Also, Domenic got into the Masters of Accounting at the University of Washington! We couldn't be more excited for him. Right now we are waiting on BYU to respond to his application. It would be sweet if he got into BYU because it's the #1 accounting school in the nation, but only 3% of the people they accept are outside of BYU Provo so even though Domenic does have a 4.0 and looks AMAZING on paper, the chances are still pretty slim unfortunately.
As for me, I finally got out of the house and took a walk in the gorgeous sunshine with Gianni. I got one of those sleepy wraps so I can just slip him in and go for a stroll. Can i say that the weather in Boise is amazing?? It is rediculous, I mean really. It has been about 60 degrees for the past week. I am starting to get the hang of things and have been attempting to get Gianni on a schedule. We'll see how that works, so far he's resisting it pretty well. Once i get him on one though, I can hopefully turn into a human again. As of now I am still a nocturnal zombie.
All in all life is sweet. We are a happy family who are growing and learning together. Through all the struggles we find happiness, and through pain we are finding ways to laugh. Family is such a blessing and I could not imagine my life any other way. Heavenly father has blessed me with so much and I cam so grateful for that.

Gianni's stats
Monday we had Gianni's 2 month check up and first set of shots. Seriously I think shots for babies are of the devil but I know it will be better in the long run for him to have them. I say they are of the devil because I have never seen my little guy cry so hard out of so much pain, not to mention how cranky he was for the rest of the day. Luckily he bounced back to his happy little self by the evening time :)
Anyways, here are his stats:
Weight: 12 lbs 8 oz (75th Percentile for weight)
Height/Length: 24 inches (90th Percentile for height/length!)
Head Circumference: 15 3/4 inches (50th Percentile for head)
He is definitely growing like a weed and getting more and more rollie pollie by the day, which I absolutely love. I love a good chunky baby!

What Gianni's up to these days
Dear Gianni,
Although you are still learning how to take naps and fall asleep on your own, you do sleep 5 hrs at night, hopefully that will extend soon.
You have discovered your tongue and stick it out at people when they stick theirs out at you
You smile when talked to
You love your swing
You love ceiling fans
You hold your head up, although still wobbly
You HATE being alone
As long as you are fed, changed and burped, and have someone within eyesight you are content
You like to coo when people talk to you
You love faces, and will stare into my eyes
You are getting nice and plump
You have 5 cries (lonely, frustrated, tired, hungry, and bored)
You laugh in your sleep
You sometimes snore/sleep talk at night
You love bath time and will usually pee outside of your bath into the big tub
You LOVE being naked, it is the happiest part of your day
You fall asleep to the sound of the vacuum
You get super sweaty when you cry for a long period of time
As of now, you have mommy's eye, daddy's lips, a combo of both our noses, and daddy's dark completion (skin and hair)
We love you little bubby!

Baby pics!
Okay so I did something really really stupid, I packed up the cord that connects to the computer for our camera and sent it with Domenic last weekend to put in our storage unit when he went to take his Italian test at BYU-I.
So, pretty much I have a TON of really cute pics/videos of Gianni but they are all stuck on my camera :(
BUT when Domenic's mom came to stay with me, we went and got professional pics taken of Gianni. Here are a few:
