Thanksgiving...

Gianna was a very happy girl these past few days to have Mommy AND Daddy at home...


...She enjoyed her fair share of Football on TV...


...and really enjoyed her first Thanksgiving at her buddy Will's House.


Gianna enjoyed picking out her first Christmas Tree.


She also seems to enjoy the cooler temps as long as she's got something cute & warm on! ;-)

Papa Greco's Business Trip

Mama was fighting some congestion over the weekend, but she's feeling much better now...So far Gianna has managed to stay very healthy and we're hoping and praying it stays that way.


Gianna is waving hi...


...as she plays with her "guys" while she's sitting like a big girl in her bumbo...


Papa's in town on a business trip and is able to stay a few extra days to spend some time visiting with his newest granddaughter.

Gianna was very mellow today. Maybe because the remnants of tropical storm Ida were pelting our house and she was just happy to be inside.


She was also a good eater today. She ate her cereal very efficiently tonight and then she grabbed her bottle to wash it down...


...and she was very pleased with herself! ;)

Indian Summer

We are enjoying a standard North Carolina Indian Summer with temps in the mid-70's this past weekend. Gianna brought Mamma to the UNC-Duke Football game and cheered on the Tar Heels (at least in the first half) to a big win.


We went for a nice long walk on Sunday. Gianna is "getting to know" her toys better.

14 lbs, 14 oz!!!

We had a great trip to Western NY and returned safely home, and while Gianna had a fun trip, we could tell she was pleased to be home.

Gianna had her four month well-baby check-up on Tuesday and she tipped the scales at 14 pounds, 14 ounces and measured 24 inches long! She's now above the 70th percentile in height, weight and head circumference.

We celebrated by introducing "solid" food to Gianna...

...and she had a few funny facial expressions...

...but she seems to enjoy her new food!

We took Gianna onto a near-bye recreational path - The American Tobacco Trail - for the first time today. She enjoys being outside.

Gianna borrowed this super cute caterpillar costume for Halloween as well...

Happy Halloween!!!

The family fun continued as Gianna and cousin Finley prepared for Trick or Treating...


Gianna passed on trick or treating this year, but she was the cutest Red Hot Chili Pepper that we've ever seen! ;)

Gianna was a good sport and had a fun time taking pictures with her cousins Aidan and Finley before they went out for the Tricks or Treats.
