Christmas Day

Opening presents with DC family.


Sporting my new hat with Auntie 'Liv.


All packed to go back to Grandad and Nona's! And we were only gone for one night!!


We were missing Brian, Rebecca, and Siena on Christmas day, but we got to share gift opening via webcam with them! See them on TV?


And then we played some more games. I was helping Daddy.

Christmas Eve

We had Wigilia (Christmas Eve) dinner, a great Polish tradition, at Mama's family's house.




Speech! Speech!


Hanging out with Uncle Eryk and Auntie Ursula.


Everybody was mingling very nicely. :)

XBOX

Playing Halo with my daddy, uncle Kevin, and uncle Eryk.

Christening Luncheon

Nona, turn around! They're taking a picture of the lovely feast you organized for everyone!


I got to meet my buddy, Luca. I hope we can be friends when we grow up!


Daddy and Luca's daddy, Marcello, swapped babies! (They did give us back afterwards.) Then I got a little violent...


Nuggie!!! Haha. So what if I'm smaller?


I did apologize later. See? Hand in hand!


My beautiful aunties and I.



My Godmommy and I.


Uncle David and I.

Christening

Dressed in Daddy's christening gown and ready to get holy!





My godparents and I.

Some family shots.



This group isn't entirely complete. We were missing Uncle Brian and his family... We were wishing you were there! Wish you could have been there, too, Aunt Mary!

Games

Playing games at Nona and Grandad's in my sling.

My Godfather

I finally got to meet my Godfather and Uncle Kevin!

Santa!

My Godmother

I finally met my Godmother and Auntie Ursula! She had a relaxing affect on me and I slept almost the whole time.

Family Pictures

Finally, some new pictures! These were taken in our back yard just before Christmas.

Buddies

Hanging with my buddies...

Weight

I am 12lbs12oz now.

Nap

It's hard work keeping Mama and Daddy up at night...

Snowsuit

I think this snowsuit is a little too big on me. Get me out of here! We're not in DC yet - we're in California!!

Bottle Feeding

Mama finally gave in and let Daddy bottle feed me (bottle feeding reminded her of my time in the hospital too much and plus she likes to feed me the good old fashioned natural way...). It was nice to have Daddy feed me for a change, though! :)

View

Snowy Palms Springs mountain taken from our patio through binoculars.

Hello!

Weight

Mama went to a meeting yesterday with other mommies that are trying to breastfeed, and she got to weigh me. I'm 12lbs2oz already!

First Bath

It took us a while to finally have a real bath. My belly button healed slowly and I really liked my sponge baths! But I think I like real baths, too!



All clean, though a little cranky... put me back in that nice, warm water!
