Fun in the leaves

After working hard to rake all the leaves in a pile we have to have some fun, right? The boys were great helpers. Their help has gotten better every year, I guess age really helps out! :) Diego is still by far our hardest and best worker, Alessandro needs a lot of encouragement, and Luca tries really hard. :)

Luca was told to stop one too many times by his brothers. Diego always getting messy

Girls

After having three boys it is so funny for me to see how different a girl is! Yes, I realize some of it may be personality, but I attribute a lot of it to being a girl. It's great. For example, I was getting Mia dressed and went in the closet to get a plain white sweater for her to wear but she saw this colorful one and kept pointing and crying at it until I put the white one down and put this one on her. hahaha She's only one!! And she already wants certain clothes!! Also, I am beginning to think girls are born with the desire for and like of shoes. :) She is so funny, I have to hide shoes from her if I don't want them on her. Otherwise it is a fit until she gets them on. The second she sees them she'll pick them up and try to plop herself on my lap for me to put them on her. I love it. :)
