Baby Romans and RaceCars!

I am a new Aunt!!!! 
Clarification, I am a new Aunt for the 8th and 9th times :D It's an absolute blast to be an aunt <3 The only down side is living thousands of miles from the adored subjects... But with today's modern technology even that hurdle is somewhat jumped. There are only a few minor technical difficulties:
1. of course you can't physically touch the other person(s)
2. every once in a while the younger ones will decide "I wanna change this movie now Daddy...", "...but it's not a movie sweatheart, it's Aunt 'Manda ;)" or (and this one is great!) "I don't want to turn it off!" and they proceed to sit and watch you and whatever you're doing like you are the greatest entertainment since Sesame Street :) 


So, without further delay, here are my two newest little nephews: Roman Jamal (arrived on Feb. 18th!) and Jeffrey James (arrived on March 5th!). They are nephews #2 and #3 - their cousin Jaron is very pleased to have a few male additions to the troop!


Roman Jamal - Romey
Romey's Family - Jared (Daddy), Becca (Mommy) and Toria - his new big sister! 
Jeffrey James - named after his Grandpas :)
Jeffrey's family: Josh (Daddy) Natasha (Mommy) and two big sisters Lilli and Margie!



I forgot to clarify the blog title of: baby Romans and RaceCars. Roman is an obvious explanation - baby Roman is Roman! And especially his Zio Zeno is most pleased because Zeno is a true Roman as well! Born and raised :) So now we have two Romans in the family. 
RaceCar? Well, you see, before little Jeffrey arrived, his big sis Lilli decided, "If I'm going to have a little brother, he needs to have a proper masculine name" and so she informed everyone that he would be "Race Car Kempson"! And in the womb, RaceCare he was called :) I don't know about in the US, but for those of the family in Italy, we still refer to him by his Lilli-given nick-name - he's our little RaceCar!
