Happy Thanksgiving

We have so much to be thankful for this year! Like...

The Love between a Papa and his son....

The Love of family and friends...

and a mama's arms! (and baby Michael's favorite fish!)
These pictures were taken the night before Thanksgiving at Uncle Dave and Aunt Daniele's Thanksgiving soup night. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving day did not yeild many pictures, as Baby Michael had a blowout in his Thanksging outfit! Better luck next year!

Rolls anyone?
As you can see, our little boy has gained some poundage!! It's hard to believe you can get this rolly polly with just breast milk, but that's the case! As you can guess, baby Michael has not skipped a feeding! We love seeing him in the buff, he is round, huggable, and healthy!

"How YOU doin'?" Baby Michael feels his Italian roots. Fuhget-a-boudit!

Happy Halloween!!

Baby Michael had his first Halloween! We did lots of fun things in October. Including, going to a pumpkin patch with Nana and Grandpa Romero. As for Halloween night, well, we were working hard to get Baby Michael on a sleep schedule. So Halloween night was more like Halloween evening! We spent some time with Baby Michael's cousins who were also adorable in their costumes. But it was a little too late and too cold to hit up the neighborhood for candy. So we just showed off our little cowboy outfit to the family. Nana was inspired and added a bandanna and vest to the ensemble!

Here we are at Victoria's Garden looking for a pumpkin. It was about 90 degrees and we were burning up. So much for the fall experience!! We found out when we arrived that most of the animals and features of the patch had been shut down and many of the pumpkins were already picked. But we still enjoyed the experience and decided a Vons pumpkin would do us just fine! It was a great day to spend with Nana and Grandpa Romero. We saw Llamas, walked through a corstock maze, and took lots of fun pictures. Family outings are Baby Michael's favorite activities!
