Gracie eats. Pardon the two very out of focus shots, but she just looks to cute. Today Gracei went crazy eatting puree of vegetable with pasta (yes, Italians start out young on the pasta), and puree of pear. She seemed very happy, and very satisified. Greta as always is a fantastic helper and got in on the act, as you can see she goes a bit overboard at times, helping her Babbo as well....

We asked Greta to smile for the camera and here is the result. She was all wound up today, she
started school this week and to our great relief she loves it. This morning as she was entering she told me to go away. Then EVERY day this week when I go to pick her up she starts crying because she does not want to come home yet. We couldn't be more pleased, she has changed so much in the last few months really turning into an outgoing fun loving little girl. It is really tiring to pass the day with her but fun. She still has a lot to learn though, she picked up the saying "Oh my God" this summer, thanks Uncle Larry, and she says it all the time, ie. "Oh my God, Wolf made a mess!" Te other day I asked her if she knew who God was and she said "Yes... you tell me" she also thinks that Christmas is Santa Claus' birthday, thankfully they start religious studies this year at school. Again, we are in Italy the Vatican is never to far.

That is all for today. Claudio and I are finally enjoying a glass of Cannonau, a Sardinian Red which we enjoy in the peace, which only parents can appreciate, that settles upon the house when the children are finally in bed. Adieu
