Giada has so much fun with Jackson!

Giada got to visit her buddy Jackson this past weekend. It's so fun to watch how the two of them grow up together and interact as they get older. Jackson was nice enough to share his toys with Giada, even though in one picture it doesn't look as though he is liking it too much.....lol.

Giada's favorite cousin, Cecelia, had a 3rd birthday today!

Today we got to celebrate Cecelia's 3rd birthday. The party was so much fun. And Cinderella even came to do some activities with all the little girls. They got their make-up done, their nails done, and played lots of games. Giada kept trying to crawl over to where all the action was to get in on all the fun. Cecelia did such a good job sharing her toys with Giada and teaching Giada how to use them. Here are some pictures from the party :)

Giada's busy Christmas vacation!

We had a very busy, eventful Christmas vacation. It was so fun to see Giada on her first Christmas morning. She actually did help with opening her presents and seems to be enjoying all of them. Although getting all of her toys means that Daddy needs to build her a toy chest now! We spent Christmas eve in Brooklyn and then Christmas in York. We were able to go to Dutch Winter Wonderland, which was freezing, but fun. We also had a visit from Kim and Jackson and capped the year off with a New Years Eve dinner at our house with my parents, sisters, Liz & Tara, brother-in-law, Adam, favorite niece, Cecelia, and friends, Melissa, Andy and their adorable newborn, Mackenzie. Lots of fun in 2009, looking forward to a wonderful 2010!
Enjoy some pictures from Christmas :)
