Two Months Later...

Yep, it happened, two months ago, and I'm writing about it now. But my big boy turned 6 on February 1st! He is probably one of the coolest and silliest kids I know! Gianluca has an awesome birthday this year. He was lucky to have Abu Maggie come out for his birthday. He always loves having her visit! He had a cousin's party bowling at Boondocks (warning over priced) and I don't have pictures for that. It was a lot of fun though! He really wanted to have a Star Wars Lego party for his friends and he scored on the Lego's. I spent 5 hours building one set and it got destroyed by a ball flying through the living room a day later! There is a reason whey they put an appropriate age on the box. Why don't I ever really pay attention to that? Anyways, what can I say about our little boy?
- He's extremely creative
- very loving and cuddly
- passionate
- crazy
- entertaining
- smart
- awesome dancer
- the list could go on
- Amazing Wii player. His favorite games are Tanks and Lego Star Wars

Funny words he gets mixed up:

- desplode (explode)
- dettack (attack)
- kriate (karate)

Favorite Food:

- Anything sea food
- salad
- Steak
- pizza
- anything sweet

Favorite Songs:

- Around the World and One More Time by Daft Punk
- Bad and Thriller by Michael Jackson
- Yellow Submarine by The Beetles
- Most No Doubt songs
- Most songs by the Killers
- And yes, he loves Lady Ga Ga. I didn't even know he knew who she was, but apparently he does.
Basically The Dude is a lot like his parents, we all love all types of music.

Gianluca has gone through a lot this year. He misses Texas like crazy and always prays to move back. He misses Joel terribly when he's gone and cries for him at night. But he is a lover and a fighter. He loves his sister and loves to tease her. He is a lot like Joel. So whenever he really acts up, I say "Hey he is just like you, so you deal with this!"

We love our little dude and can't imagine life without him!


Two of his favorite things, Daddy and Texas!

He really struggles with church. Here he is not happy that he is going to church. In fact his very words were "Church is P-O-O-P!" over and over again. He gets bored easily!

Loves Pirate stuff!

Aw. He is so handsome. Seriously, that kid is a good lookin'. And we need to hang out. Call me because I don't have your number anymore (my cell broke).

he is SO handsome! We loved that we got to take part in a little celebrating with GL. We need to make sure that he and Mylo don't get together on Sundays, those two would make some serious trouble... Mylo doesn't like church either. He says he is a Lamanite :), at least he knows some of the characters in the BofM.

Love that kid! He is so fun and my boys love playing with him!
Funny about the church comment...Conner and him should talk. They could share ideas on how to tell your primary teachers your thoughts on church....then the teachers will bring you treats...at home...to win you over!
Conner has some very patient Primary teachers. Pray the same for Gianluca.
Our boys will come to love church...one day ;)
