Pregnant with Joseph
Kristy doesn't have facial hair, but she does totally have chest hair. HOT! — with Kristy Tayloe DiGiacomo.
Some Old Posts
31...I
feel old and young at the same time. There's nothing better than having
a little boy be so happy it's your birthday. About every hour I am
asked, "Mommy is it still you're birthday?" When I reply yes he gets all
shy and practically whispers, "Happy Birthday Mommy."
The
other day we had an appointment for Blake for the ENT. They called us
back and Joseph walked up to the nurse first. She said, You're not Blake
are you? Joseph says, "No he's the one whining." He cracks me up!!!
First cuss word...Joseph outside playing with a tennis ball and badminton racquet.
Joseph having trouble hitting the ball: Dammit! Dammit!
Me: What did you just say?!!!
Joseph: Dammit.
Me: Do you even know what that means?
Joseph: Yes. It means I can't hit the ball.
Me: (laughing hysterically and not looking at Joseph, after some time to recompose myself) where did you hear that word?
Joseph: I think from the sky.
Me: (again after a few minutes, to quell the giggles) that's not a nice word, you shouldn't say it
Joseph: Ok
Then while he was going to bed he was sing-songing to bed, Dammit, dammit.
James DiGiacomo I totally blame you for this one!!!

As
we r walking to bad frog fro yo in olde dublin joseph aall of a sudden
says this is where we should do halloween...I have no idea what he was
talking about, maybe the brick sidewalks? Then as we r sitting on the
bench eating he says, "In a long day I'm going to be a police officer
and be in charge of letting people cross the street and drive a police
officer car." — with James DiGiacomo.

The
last night of vacation is always bittersweet. Sad for it to be over but
looking forward to sleeping in my own bed. We had a BLAST, especially
spending time with family! I asked joseph before bed what his favorite
thing this week was and he said, "spending time with my cousins."

We
left this morning at 8:15 a little behind but not to bad for packing up
the car. We stopped at the bank and I realized I forgot my phone. We
looked everywhere. I kept hearing it buzz but could NOT find it...it was
in my pocket. 8:45 back on the road. 9:15 Blake pukes. 11 we stopped
for lunch and it took an hour because i had to get cleaning spray and
air freshener. We didn't make it to penn until 6. We had planned on
4:30. We at least will have some good stories to tell.

Joseph's
quote of the day: We were talking about what he wanted to be when he
grew up and he was playing basketball outside. So naturally he said he
wanted to be a basketball player. When I asked what else he wanted to be
he said a train and then he said a police officer. This was a first so I
asked him what a police officer does and he said, "They sell cars."

4 exhausted DiGiacomo's + 1 exhausted grandpa tayloe, but had an awesome day riding Thomas the train!!!
Joseph's quote of the day:
(I was leaving to take Blake to the doctor so I had him in the car and ready when Jim got home and Jim just walked in to take over, so I am posting this on Jim's behalf.)
Jim enters room.
Joseph: Daddy, did any of the teachers at work tell you that you look handsome today.
Jim: Well no they didn't
Joseph: well why not?

Awesome
St Patrick's Day! A little leprechaun turned our milk and lemonade
green and then after naps (ok after playing in our cribs and beds for an
hour) super fun St. Patrick's Party with super awesome people!!! Too
bad Jim is in North Carolina and couldn't partake in the festivities.
The boys had a blast! And I concocted a drink to rival the shamrock
shake: green milk, hersey syrup, shot of peppermint schnapps (100 proof
of course!), add ice and shake and pour.
Attention
parents with more than 1 child: HELP!!!!!! I took Joseph to gymnastics
for the first time tonight and Jim had to referee dodge ball at his
school and Blake was AWFUL!!!! He was screaming and crying. I tried
EVERYTHING! I brought toys, drinks, I tried walking him around, all he
wanted was to go in where Joseph was. Joseph never acted like this
(granted he never had to miss out big brother fun either) but I don't
know what to do when we go out. At one point, Blake was literally lying
on the floor kicking and screaming. I was getting lots of dirty looks
and eye rolling. Any advice would be much appreciated!!!!
I was putting Joseph to bed and he asked me to tell him a story about Thomas (the train). So I started a story.
Me: ...and Annie and Clarabell were so excited that they cheered and clapped that Thomas was so fast. And Thomas went over the big, big bridge and...
Joseph (interrupting): Annie and Clarabell don't have arms.

I
was cuddling with joseph with him and my face was close to his and he
kept moving. I thought my hair was tickling him, so I said sorry my hair
is tickling you and he said I don't like your steam.
This
morning joseph wanted toast for breakfast. After a couple bites he
called me in to take off the crust. I pulled it off and left it on his
napkin as I pulled off the rest. I was getting ready to pick it up to
throw it away when he picked the crust up and ate that! I guess it just
goes to show our preconceived notions are not always our kids!
So
I know jim's been posting things but I never posted that Blake Thomas
DiGiacomo was born on dec 16 @ 3:14pm. He weighed 9lbs 14oz and was 21
1/2 in long (and he was two weeks early!!) I went in at 7:30am with very
mild contractions, they broke my water at around noon and at 3 and two
pushes later he was born!!! And I got to have the epidural this
time!!!!!
Haven't
been on here in forever!!! Everytime I would try to get on with my
iPod it wouldn't work. So we found out that it's a boy!!!
Busy Day
Busy
day tomorrow: Blake's Mommy and me class, blake's speech evaluation (2
hours), lunch, nap for Blake play for Joseph and work (my at home
marketing job) for mommy, go to tutoring job, dinner, jim's tutoring,
kids bed, then some more work.
Bottle of Joy
Tonight was a bit of a rough night with the
boys. I have a cold so my patience isn't what it should be. After Jim
and I taking turns dealing with our little noodles, it was time for bed.
Jim started putting Blake to bed but then I finished. As I was sitting
with Blake after singing songs, I was rubbing my eyes. He pointed to me,
I said yeah Blake Mommy doesn't feel good, my head hurts, and nose
hurts and throat hurts. He then turned to face me and planted a huge
kiss on my forehead. Then he put his hand on my cheek and cuddled into
me. As hard as being a parent can be, it is so worth it for moments like
that.

Holiday season
This holiday season has been wonderful (and busy)! The Saturday before Christmas we had Christmas at TJ and Ally's with Dad. The boys loved it! Then on Sunday we had Christmas with mom. On Monday we left for the DiGiacomo's and spent Christmas Eve there. Of course Santa knew where we would be so the boys came down to a ton of presents. Then the Matthews came and John and Riley. The boys had the greatest time playing with their cousins. Ryan and Joseph buddies up and Blake played with Giana a lot. The Matthews also stayed until Thurs so they had a lot of time to play together. Jacob and Frankie enjoyed playing games with me and Julie. Joj and Blake didn't sleep great, but other than that they were awesome!!!
Ryan at one point told Joseph he was lucky to have him as a cousin and Joseph said I'm lucky to. When they were leaving ryan said I'm sure going to miss you Joseph. They had such fun together. Giana and Blake wee little buddies too, g even took a bathe worth the boys. We returned on thurs and chilled. On sat mom came and spent the night and we went to zoo lights. It was cool because it was so snowy. It snowed on we'd quite a bit and then again on fri. Sun we went to church and I went to kohls with mom. Mon was New Year's Eve and we took the boys sledding at the hills near kohls parking lot. They had a blast!!!! Joseph loved it! I kept crashing, and when I finally did make it down I ran down Joseph and he ended up on the rest of the ride with me and Blake. Today is New Year's Day and we just got home from spending he evening with tj and ally.
A funny antidote: Joseph has been terrible about staying in bed. He got up and went to the bathroom, on his way back to bed jim was standing there monitoring and Joseph walked past the mirror. Then he went back to it saying wit I need to see myself in the mirror. When he saw his reflection he said myself looks good! Ha!
