Snow day!

So the snow didn't really change our plans of staying in doors and keeping warm but it sure gave us something pretty to look at. Unfortunately Gabe had to trek into the city for work so Finn and I had a cuddle fest! It must have been just what the doctor ordered bc last night she slept from 7pm-5am (not bragging just hoping that this is a new trend!)
Dakota loved the snow!


Someone woke up happy! She was cracking me up how she was in the corner and had both hands on the crib slates.

Play time!

So cute....

Yet such a stinker these days. My sweet girl who started sleeping through the night at 5 weeks doesn't want to sleep anymore-at all-. I'm tired but we still get rewarded with this girls beautiful smile and giggle!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Love your daughter,

Christmas trip to NC

We had a great time in NC! Finnegan was able to meet family and friends and it just felt good being there. She didn't sleep as well and so it took a bit of a toll on her sunny disposition and well, I was pretty exhausted the whole time. The first week were at Gabe's parents' home with his brother and family. Then Gabe left and I moved down the street to my folks' home.

Pictures!
Quinn reading to Finnegan

Finnegan's favorite time of day! Kate would just walk around with her and bounce her, she would be crying in someone elses arms and then Kate would take her and she would settle right away! Sure wish we lived closer to cousins.

Finnegan has the cutest cousins EVER!

Sue and Dave with all of their grandchildren

Everyone together!

Yes- Dakota came with us! Look at all the fun she was having (she did have an allergic reaction to something so she did have to make a quick trip to the vet)

Christmas at my folks

Finn with her great grandmother

Finn got to meet lots of friends too- I didn't get a picture of all of our outings but she loved meeting everyone!!

Laughing in the New Year!

Finnegan had a great first Christmas...loved on by all her family.
She has been a bit out of sorts with all the new people and traveling but that hasn't kept her from smilling and giggling up a storm.



We'll have tons of pictures and stories to share once we get back home. Gabe is already in Brooklyn but Finn and I are living it up in Charlotte until Friday!

You can never say "I Love You" too much...

And apparently the same holds true for Finn's hearing it.

So much loving!

This past week was a busy week for my little three month old! Last Friday my brother and his family arrived, Saturday my dad and step mom arrived. Finn just keeps meeting family that love on her~ she is getting lots of cuddles and gives her smiles freely!

A little snap shot of our week!

Nonni and Poppi arrive from CO to meet their first granddaughter.

A big girl dinner~ she was amazing the WHOLE time.


I had an annual biz review at work so the grandparents watched Finnegan. She had a great time playing and word has it they even fed her FAT WITCH BROWINES! A little bonus- Sarah Jessica Parker came to my work function...she was announcing a winner of an award- crazy huh?

This is how I found them when I got home...


Dad and Oliver went ice skating in Bryant Park...Finn and I Weren't there but enjoyed the stories and photos.




Movie Premiere! Gabe and I got all dressed up and went to see LITTLE FOCKERS. IT was a fun movie and we enjoyed watching it with friends and family...sitting a row away from Dustin Hoffman, Ben Stiller, Jessica Alba, etc... was just an added bonus.
