The New Mr & Mrs DiMauro

Cassie and Lou exchanged wedding vows on April 11th and it could not have been a more beautiful day...depsite the yucky weather outside, it was bliss on the inside!! We were truly honored to be there as our baby sister walked herself down the aisle to her husband!! It was kinda a tear jerker for Kevin and I as we stood beside her to witness her love for Lou! I am sure it was just as emotional for mom, her baby girl was getting married!

Cassie, you looked beautiful!! It brought tears to my eyes to watch you walk down that aisle as my baby sister and walk back down in 60 minutes as a married women! You have come such a long way in your life, and I am so thankful that I have been able to share the memories with you, both the good and the bad. The memories are what will unite us for forever. I look forward to hearing your stories of being married and listening to you talk about your husband, and someday babies!!



Lou, we welcome you to our family with lots of love! We may not have it altogether all the time, but together we have it all and could not be happier to include you in the fun times!! Our life is nothing short of chaotic, and you always seem to have a smile on your face. My girls enjoy being with you and are anxious that you and Cassie are now married. Addison just thinks it is cool that you will always be at "Bubba's house". We are trying to get through to her that it is yours and Bubba's house now!!! It may take time, bear with us! You have made Cassie one happy person and we are thrilled with God's choice of a husband for her! We wish the 2 of you lots of love and lots of kids (someday)!!!



Addison was so excited to be such an important part of your special day as well. She is still talking about it...almost everyday!! Thank you for your patience with her! I appreciate it.



Thank you for your patience with all the kids. I know at times it was loud and at times, it was probably disruptive. But you both made us feel comfortable and like the children were not disruptive to you! You will never know how much we appreciate that. Well someday you will, when you have your own kids!! Thanks for letting us ALL crash at your house, I know it was worrisome walking in at times, but we got it all cleaned up and hopefully did not break anything. Heck, we only lost the umbrellas! Sorry! We are still trying to locate them.
Hope you are having fun in Mexico, we sure miss you guys and are VERY jealous!! Wish we could be there too!

We got Pee!!!!!!

Someone went pee in the potty the other night!!! Yes, it was Olivia. Addison already does that!! We decided to get out the potty chair and just kind of let her start "exploring" it, she will never go when we put her on the "real" toilet, so we decided to try to potty chair we started Addison with. She will sit on it, grunt a little, then get up and giggle. I think she knows what she is supposed to be doing on it! Well, the other night after her bath, I brought her into the living room to get her ready for bed, and of course she dashed away before I could even lay her down. She went right to that potty, looked at me, giggled and then proceeded t pee!!! We clapped and cheered! Addison intially said, "oh that's gross mommy". We explained to her that peeing in that potty is good for Olivia, so we had to cheer and clap for her. One can ALWAYS count on Addison to cheer for Olivia, so that is what she did!!! She hasn't done it since, but got to start somewhere!! Think before baby gets here we can get her out of diapers? Pray for us!!
