Breakfast With Santa

The kids attended the fabulous Breakfast with Santa at the GORGEOUS Macy's in Philadelphia. Let's just say we know people (Shout out Liz & Greg...LOVE YOU) and we were truly blessed to attend. The kids had a magical time as you can see, meeting Mrs. Claus, a ballerina, and finally Santa. It was just beautiful!!! 

We hope you have a beautiful Christmas!!!!

We LOVE YOU friends and family!!!!

HAPPY FRIDAY

Thankful.

Thanksgiving this year was very different for us. We were invited over to our friend's house for dinner and decided to take them up on the offer...so no food shots. Bummer! We usually develop a menu months in advance and have so much fun eating the day away. The food was very delicious at our friend's house and we very much enjoyed the company but I felt uncomfortable busting out my camera and snapping photos. So we snapped a few kid photos and I'd thought I would share. Did we mention that we are Thankful for our wonderful family and lovely friends...that means you!!! Thank you for being in our lives, we love you!

 Lots of love <3

Upon waking from a lovely nap, he discovered his curtains were pulled open and he could see the trees outside.

Number 3

Maxfield Rivers is now officially 8 months old. There is quite a lot of personality, passion, and determination packed into one teeny body. He loves playing with Daddy's PS3 (as he is in love with the cords and the plastic game containers) but is learning the meaning of "NO NO" rather quicky...I hope. He is very active, and eventhough he isn't walking yet, I find myself very tired at the end of the day. He is sleeping in his crib these days (Mommy is sad about this.....), till oh about 4:45-5:00 am, then snuggles in bed with mommy (a comprise) while he nurses. He is eating mashed up food now, instead of pureed baby food. We found that he wants in on all the food action so we let him eat what we eat, and he's happy with that. He is crawling, mostly of the army crawl type, but he is a master at the plank and has even crawled for real a few times but chickens out.  He tolerates loves his sisters most of the time, but hey they are a lot to swallow at times...so he needs time to himself from time to time. I swear that he mimics me when I say "HAAAZEL" (which I say a thousand times a day so I'm not surprised) but most of the family thinks I'm crazy...and its official, he does say "DaDa". 

We love this guy....we do. He has brought so much excitement and love to our family...thank you God for our Maxfield!  He is so loving, and sweet and has the most amazing smile ever! His favorite thing is being kissed on the neck, which actually makes him melt, so I'm happy to give him thousands of neck kisses a day. He just loves his Dad, and the smile he gets when he sees him is priceless. Yes, he is very loved!! We are blessed! 

Love,

MOMICA (AKA MONICA)

A day in the garden.

Spending the day at Longwood Gardens was a great idea (We have a membership that is way underused!!)!!! We used it as a field trip on a Monday last week. How often do you just let kids frolic in the open, fresh air with the warm sun shining? Well to be perfectly honest, not nearly enough around here!! The kids had so much fun!!!

Have a gorgeous, lovely, and fabulous day!!!

Love,
