Casey met his little brother today. It was a great meeting. He said hes going to protect him. He also said he was going to teach him how to play basketball, but Nash won't be as good as him.

He also said he was going to hit the doctor. Whatever that means....

Casey brought him a teddy bear, showed him his big boy toys, and held him...

Here's some pics...

Casey's First Day Of School

September 2, 2008

Casey's First Day Of School

He had a rough time in the morning.

Did not want to wear his back pack.

He had no idea what he was in for.

I think we were more upset than him.

When he came home I asked him "what did you do at school today?"

He said "I cried"

Sad Feelings.....

His first 2 weeks were tough, but he is now getting the hang of it. He is a BIG BOY. Thats when he puts his hands over his head to show you he is big. He also does not cry anymore. This was documented in the form of a beautiful banner that he was given by his teacher.

Casey's First Time On The Potty 9.01.08

2008-09-01T07:11:00.001-07:00

Casey used the potty today for the first time alone. He used it yesterday but that was with Pam's help. Today he did it all by himself! We are very proud of him. Here is a shot of the proud boy partaking in a lifelong man tradition of reading in the bathroom.... he takes after "Yampa" (Grampa, as he calls him).

Casey's First Baseball Game

2008-08-26T07:24:00.000-07:00

Last night Casey watched the Mets beat the Astros at his first baseball game ever, and one of the last at the old Shea Stadium. Not so happy on the ride there, but an Oreo turned that right around. A fun night was had by all. Casey was a handful, but Daddy had alot of help from the girls (thank god)(thanks blake & jessy).... He ate Oreos, chicken fingers & fries (which he burned his tongue on), then some Italian Ice, to cool his tongue. He didn't eat all of the ice and Uncle Milky had to eat the rest... He loved yelling "Hit the ball" at the players, which was kinda funny.

This morning he still had his Mets shirt on and refused to take it off. He loves "Batball" as he calls it. If you think about it, it's a more accurate name for the sport.

Adding to the funfactor, the game was attended by many of my cowrokers. Casey proceeded to "Spagett" them all

Very tired on the way home, he watched Blue's Clues then fell asleep in 5 minutes

Casey & The Big Italian Chair

2008-08-25T12:19:00.000-07:00

Here are some cameraphone shots of Casey at the Holy Rosary Italian Feast in Jersey City.

My mom went to this school and has been going to this Feast for ages.

It was a great time and Casey had fun sititng in this enormous chair. Note the giant Italian flag. He also won a stuffed animal by making a basket into one of those rigged basketball stands that inflates the ball to its maximum limit and bends the rim into an oval making it nearly impossible to make a shot.

He then put on a dance routine in front of the live band that had everyone in stitches. It was part Chuck Berry duck walke, part Breakin 2 Electric Boogaloo. I do not know where he gets his moves from. Maybe Mama....

Spaghetti Cat

Ok this has nothing to do with Lil Man but it was so funny I had to share.

During Mike & Juliet's Morning Show, for no reason they put in this image. I found out the real reason why from an insider (thanks John)

Just watch the video and do not drink milk while you are doing so.

For no reason at all.

Casey At The Disney Tour

2008-08-19T11:20:00.000-07:00

Here are photos from our trip to the Disney Block Party Tour.

It wasn't so bad from the adult persective. We had a great time actually. It was a little hot, butthey had nice tents that had mist spraying out to cool you down. Casey had an excellent time with his cousins (except Charlie who was sick and had to go home early)

Thanks to Mama Pam for gtting the free tickets for everyone!!

He especially enjoyed the music room and playing drums. Imagine Guitar Center crammed into a little tent and everyone playing the instruments are toddlers .It was loud, but cute.

Here are some shots of the music room, and Casey hugging Raina one too many times (raina is very patient with him)

Casey In Wildwood Part 2

2008-08-19T11:13:00.000-07:00

Here are more pictures form our trip to the Caribbean Motel.

It is a lovely clean place. Super quiet and nice.

I used to go to Wildwood as a kid with my family every year.
It holds a special place in my heart. Reminds me of a time when life was much less complicated and care free. I don't remember alot of my childhood, (which the shrinks say means you had a great childhood) but I remember EVERY trip to Wildwood.

The final shot of Casey watching Blues Clues on my iPod is a favorite of mine. He loves "Blue Clue" (as he calls it) to wind down before bedtime.

Here are some photos of Casey enjoying Deb & Shelly's glorious beach house in Brick, NJ

Here he is playing with Felix, eating off of Daddy's enormously long fork, getting ice cream with Felix, and helping Aunt Deb water the plants....

Casey's 2nd 2nd Birthday Party

2008-06-08T14:31:00.000-07:00

Hey...

So Casey's Birthday went off without a hitch (except it was 97 degrees & there were generous amounts of doggy doo doo around). Despite the heat, fun was had by all. There actually was a cool breeze underneath the many trees surrounding our area. Grandma Donna made her famous meatballs, which were amazing even in 90 degree weather.

There were water guns, bikes, and "all the balls" anyone could ever wish to have. Thank you all for coming out and giving Casey AMAZING gifts!!!

Thank you, Alicia, Philip, Charlie & Henry, Marissa, David, Ezra, Raina, & Harper, Gregg, Grandmas' Dianne & Donna, Grandpa Jack, Dorien, Sameena, Vin, Felice, Joe & Hank, Korena, Rob, Hot Strikes, Chris, Jill, Rowan, Wade, Blake, Mike, Eric, Adam, Alan, Ashley, Arlo (Milo), Heidi, Rick, Amelia, Speck, Ron, Shane, Charles & JK & Avery & Mira, & John Z & Katie.

Here are some photos of the day.

Special Thanks to Amelia for making the most AMAZING Noddy Cake this country has ever seen!!!!!

Casey's 2nd Jersey City Birthday Party

2008-06-07T07:02:00.001-07:00

Today June 7th, 2008, we are having a birthday party for Casey in Hamilton Park, in Jersey City.

We did this last year and we had a great time. This year we happened to pick the first day of a heatwave for the day of his part.

There is enough shade and trees, so hopefully we will be ok. As we speak Casey is sitting in his "New" Thinking Chair, thinking about how hot it is going to be in a few hours.

Thank you everyone that braved the heat.... Pictures to follow

Casey Love Noddy

2008-06-02T18:17:00.000-07:00

Casey watches Noddy after a hard day at work (play). I found him in our bed very relaxed. Usually he plays basketball all day & some baseball, but at night to wind down, he needs a little Noddy. Noddy is the longest running show in British history. I don't think it is that popular in America, because I can't seem to find one damn toy with Noddy's face on it.
