A Penny for Your Thoughts...

About Me

Hi my name is Rabecca Ranaldi, I am a mother, wife, sister, daughter and friend….

I am impatient, I yell, I am jealous, I get angry, I expect things, I burp, I always order more than I can eat, I barely ever wear shoes, I talk to strangers, I drive crazy, I am never ready to go when I say I am, I interrupt when your talking and keep talking when you have to hang up, I cant keep a plant alive, I want too many animals, I buy too many movies, I love pickles olives salad and pasta, I love the sound of rain and the smell of puppies. I love the sound of a good belly chuckle from a baby, I love the ocean and sunsets, I love dolphins and sea shells, I love Ireland and pretend to be Irish, I miss the old days but am proud of who I have become, I freak out when I lose something, I blame everyone but myself for everything, I wish I had more sometimes, but mostly I do truly and wholeheartedly love my life.

I have an amazing husband who completes me.  We are opposite in almost every way. We love each other for our differences and have learned to love each other in spite of our differences. 🙂 July 27th, 2002… feels like just yesterday.

I have three beautiful children that keep me on my toes, bring tears of laughter to my eyes and cause my hair to turn grey prematurely….

 

My youngest, Peytne Dawn Ranaldi was named after my best friend Adrianna Dawn Valenti and her mother Dawn Valenti. They were my family; my life for many many years. They will always be a part of my life. Peytne is a quirky little chunk. She runs everywhere she goes, including in circles giggling the entire time. She is every bit as much a princess-diva like her sister but gets right down in the mud with cars like her brother. Peytne was born April 17th, 2010

Haylee Jean Ranaldi was given my middle name for a very special reason. Great Grandma Jean French.  My grandmother wanted girls, lots of them… I’m not sure why seeing as when I grew up she didn’t know how to handle a girl (neither do I so maybe its genetic lol) Instead of girls she got 3 rambunctious wild and crazy boys.  Each of them were 7years apart…21 years full of miscarriages and only three full term babies, none of which were girls. She was heartbroken. When my father found out he was having a little girl(the first one on this side of the family) He gave me her name; Jean in honor of her desire to have a little girl. Now Haylee gets to carry on that tradition. Although she has a little sister, she will always be the first girl in our family. AND BOY does she embrace the “girl” in her. Haylee was born November 5th, 2006

Kaelob Scott Ranaldi. Such a grown up little man. He was our first child and such a precious, happy baby.  He was a chunky healthy baby that surpassed all the growth charts.  He is 100% boy. Anything cars, planes, or trains…  Superheros, dinosaurs, monsters… Legos, Star Wars, and Hot Wheels…       He has a wonderful heart for animals and enjoys helping mommy do the chores around the farm. Kaelob’s middle name comes from both his grandfather on my side AND his grandfather on my husband’s side. Ironically enough my Father in law’s name is Scott Alan and my dad’s name is Alan Scott. No offense to either grandpa, but I liked Scott much better. 🙂 So on March 1st 2004 Kaelob Scott Ranaldi was born.

THIS is my Life, Let me share it with YOU.
