Christmas Morning

Miami Christmas

Christmas Day we had the whole gang over- it was so much fun! Lots of work but worth it! We miss our families on the holidays, but our friends make such a difference.


Us and our sidekicks, the 'Mardars'

Awww...

Us with Billie and Devin. Logan and Adam stayed home 'cause Logan was being a stinker. We missed him!

"Listen , Mia, I know you are cute and all in your party dress, but I am not so sure 'bout you on my new bike from Grammy and Pappy, sister. You'd look better on the back with me driving!"

"Hey Mom, check out my big boy Harley bike from Uncle Mike and Aunt Karen! Mia ain't ridin' on this one!

Aunt Karen with Daniel and Matt. We're trying to stimulate her eggs, 'cause she's next!

Matt with his Daddy and Yia Yia

Snowy December Days

In the beginning of December, Matt and I flew home to Pittsburgh to visit our family. We weren't able to go over Christmas, but at least we still got to see everyone! We stayed at my Mom and Bruce's for the first half, then stayed at my Dad and LouAnn's for the second half.

Gram and her new beau Doug joined us for dinner at our favorite Italian Restaurant. It was Steeler Sunday and almost everyone was wearing their jerseys!

Pappy Bruce found his trains from when he was a kid (i.e. a loooooong time ago) and set them up for Matt. I am not sure who enjoyed it more!!!

Mommy, Matty, Grammy PJ and Martini. Poor Martini was tormented for 4 days and was glad to see us go. Check out all the snow through the window!

What a cute little reindeer!

Matty and Mommy on the train at the mall. Notice his Kung-Fu grip on me.

Building a snow man with Pap. We also did a little sled-riding as well!

Our cousin Katie stayed the night and helped us with our snow man. Matty loves his cousin Katiebug!!

Two cuties!!

"Mom, I can't believe you are making me wear this get-up"

It snowed so much and Matty loved playing outside

Matt and I spent the afternoon with my friend Jen and her family. Mikey shared his toys with Matt so well!My cousin Katie bought Matty a toy band for Christmas so we all pitched in and made such a racket.

Pap Pap Petie and Granny LuLu wanted to take Matt to the county airport and Matt really enjoyed watching all the planes.
