Just for Fun!

Thought all you folks out there might be interested in seeing a few pictures of the kiddos! We will be taking some family pictures towards the end of the month, and Titus turns 6 months on the 14th, so soon he will have some portraits done, just him.

All is well here in the Furieri house! We are excited about our holiday travels to visit my brother and his family! Italo's new job is going realy well, and life is slowly returning to a new normal.

Merry Christmas to all! Happy Birthday Jesus!

October Fun!

Just wanted to post a few new pics!

Baby Titus outside playing in his bouncer. Aside from the mosquitos, he loves to be outside!

Leora dressed up as Cinderella for Halloween/ fall festivities. She is daddy's little princess!

She also got to dress up as a fairy princess a few days before for a playdate with some friends! We got some really cute pictures!

Titus James' Baby Dedication (3 months old)

These are pics from right before we went on stage to have Titus dedicated to the Lord. This last one is Leora with a mouth full of cereal bar. We had to be there early and breakfast had to be eaten on the way there! She was a little tired and cranky because we indulged her by letting her stay up and watch Kung Fu Panda with us the night before. Titus did very well though and looked very handsome! They are such beautiful kids aren't they!? Such a blessng to watch them grow and to have the priviledge and great honor to teach them about Jesus Christ! Our children were dedicated to God before they were ever born or thought of, but the formal ceremony is a nice way to make it known to all! Hope you all enjoy the pictures! Love you all and miss you dearly!

Finalmente, mais fotos da família!

Ultimamente temos andado bastante ocupados. Tenho certeza que todos entendem... Desde Maio nos mudamos 2 vezes; Jimmy nasceu; compramos uma casa; e eu completei 3 matérias na faculdade! Bastante coisa...

Mas, finalmente, seguem algumas fotos do Jimmy e da Leora!

Italo.

NASCEU TITO TIAGO FURIERI (TITUS JAMES)!!!

Trago boas noticias! Mae e bebe passam bem. "Jimmy" nasceu as 7:16am, dia 14 de Junho de 2010 em Houston, Texas, medindo 50.8cm e pesando aproximandamente 4.1 Kg.

Leora ficou muito feliz com a chegada do irmaozinho!

Jimmy chegou a tempo para a estreia do Brasil na Copa do Mundo amanha, entao estarei em boa companhia para assistir o jogo! O que mais eu poderia pedir? Assim como eu, meu filho nasceu em ano de copa...

Estamos muito agradecidos a Deus. Como alguns de voces sabem, Leora nasceu em casa, e o Jimmy tambem. Mesmo com todos os preparativos e as precaucoes que sempre tomamos, sabemos que e atraves da graca de Deus, recebida por nos atraves de Jesus, que tudo correu bem. Agradecemos a Deus e o louvamos!

Espero que todos gostem das fotos!

Italo Furieri.

Feliz Dia das Mães!!!

Há alguns dias atrás tentamos fazer o upload de um vídeo da Leora tomando banho de bacia no quintal mas não conseguimos... Continuaremos tentando. Por enquanto aqui vão algumas fotos que tiramos hoje, Dia das Mães.

Tomando banho de bacia.

E esse vestido que a Vovó Tatiana mandou de presente? Que princesa! Muito Obrigada Vovó!!

Temos descoberto que a Leora gosta muito de pintar, mas de vez em quando ela erra o papel...

Easter Weekend!

So here is the belly at 31 weeks...it was an exhausting weekend so i'm a little puffy, but you get the picture! Italo's allergies were acting up so he wasn't feeling too great that morning!

Easter egg hunt at church the day before. Papai helped her find eggs and we enjoyed the gorgeous day!
Here is the princess in all her Easter Sunday glory! She is wearing her pretty dress that she got in Brasil last year and it finally fits her! She looked gorgeous in it! However she wasn't cooperating with the picture taking, so there are no smiles, but I promise she had a great time in her "pitty dess." (aka pretty dress)

more Easter egg hunt pics. Still no smiles in the pics...but she did have a good time!

Easter weekend was a busy one, but we were glad to have Italo off of work on Friday and Monday. On Monday we moved a bunch of our stuff into storage to get teh moving process started and to empty out mom's house a little so we can start showing it soon once it hits the market! Still no word on whether our house will really be ours yet...but we do know the process is moving and that we've done everything and the sellers have done thier part. Now we are just waiting on the bank to do their part.

So Leora turns 2 tomorrow! We will have a party on Saturday and will post lots of pictures and hopefully a video of all the fun times. We will take her in the am to Old MacDonald's farm which is a huge petting zoo of animals. She will have a ball, and it looks like the weather might even be nice! Then in the afternoon we'll have a small party! Should be fun! She is definitely 2 years old though... no doubt about it! Her favorite question is "what are you doin?" but it sounds more like "wharya dooin?" and she asks you again every minute or so in this really hilarious voice! Oh, and don't worry all you Brazilian family that think she is deprived from sweets way too much. This birthday, she will have a delicious ice cream cake for her birthday and we'll take lots of pictures of her indulgence! I think the cake is more fo Papai because he insisted on it...but Leora will definitely have her share...and probably have a major sugar meltdown afterwards! I just hope she doesn't get sick!

I am nearning 32 weeks now so I have about 2 months left still. I'd like to think we'll be in a house by then... but who knows! This baby is gonna be a soccer player for sure... he/she packs a serious punch and kick and has a loooot of energy! Everything is looking fine and healthy though and I'm just getting bigger and more uncomfortable, but I have good days and bad days! I got out some newborn stuff like blankets and clothes from Leora that were neutral for a boy or a girl. It was a little nostalgic and so crazy thinking that in only a couple months... another tiny little Furieri will be wearing these clothes and it will be a whole new experience getting aquainted with this whole different little person. It is exciting and a little scary at the same time... but mostly exciting!!

We will post again for her birthday, hopefully very soon after! Happy Birthday Leora!!!!!!!!!!!
