Pinch Nose

On Valentine’s Day, Gianna started making a new face that we love.  She is just so animated.  The first video is of her playing, and she shares her new face for a second.  In case you miss it, she does it again in the second video. 

For the past couple of weeks, I have been unable to publish videos on our blog.  Thanks to those of you who were waiting to see Gia’s pinch face patiently!

My Birthday Treat

Gia thoroughly enjoyed her first bites of an unfrosted cupcake in celebration of our birthdays (her three quarters and my 29th).

Cooper’s Third Birthday

Cooper turned three on February 8th.  He was super excited for his party, talking a mile a minute, sneaking into the giant cupcakes, and begging to open the cars on his gift. 

After the presents were opened, cupcakes were eaten, and toys were played with, the cousins enjoyed each other’s company.

Sassy Sweet Pea

Gianna is a happy, playful baby. We are told how smiley and cute she is, and we agree. 'Lil Miss Gia is also a determined baby girl. I recently mentioned that she figures out ways to get what she wants. Yelling to wake up sleepy people is one example.

May Visit

Gianna and I went to Grandma and Grandpa's for the weekend while Daddy was in Las Vegas for the Jimmy John's convention. We got there Friday night and had a sleep over with Uncle Clay, Brittany, Sophie, Amber, and Uncle Clay's friends. On Saturday morning, we went shopping and out to lunch with Dziadzia. We enjoyed yummy Italian food on Saturday night. Gianna tried bread, noodles, spagetti sauce, and gelatto that day. She loves to eat! Sunday morning, we had lots of visitors before we headed back to La Crosse.

Great Grandma and Grandpa May
