Meghan's Bridal Shower

Yesterday we had my sister's Pampered Chef Bridal Shower. She gets married in February but this was the only time she was home from NYC until the wedding. Thanks to Maria and Theresa for all your hard work!! It was a lot of fun...please don't laugh (TOO HARD) at the silly song we did for my sis!!

Our counter girl...

Emma gets changed a lot on the counter...and she always seems to enjoy laying there and looking around...silly girl!

The perfect spot to play!

All bundled up

Big helper...

Santa got Angel a vacuum for Christmas....and now she is mommy's big helper!!

The new fad...

Since I cannot get it off, I will just wear it like a hat!

Angel's new game...

This game of walking around with a bag on her head....was destined to end badly...

All the girls....

Me, my sister Caitlin-Alli-Meghan and the girls, Angelica and Baby Emma.

Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful and WHITE Christmas this year. All my sisters were home which was really special. We always have a tradional breakfast together and then do gifts and then we just sat around the living room and visited all day while we watched the snow fall. (Ok, and had a spiked egg nog...or two!) Then we had our yummy Christmas dinner and of course...took some pictures too!

Christmas socks...

Aunt Frances made all the girls Christmas socks/slippers...so FUN!

Two cute Christmas presents...

...thanks Aunt Frances for the hats!

Angel's New Phone...

Maybe she will stop using mine now!

Our Christmas Candy Cane...

...thanks Sophie for the cute PJs.

Sorry Santa....

With no cookies to be found, we put Santa on a diet this year....(and had to keep Angel from eating the gold fish).

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve we went to the Children's mass at our church. My youngest sister, Alli, sings in the girls choir. I was a little worried I wasn't going to make it there. Emma was having a hard afternoon with what I believe was tummy trouble and not nursing well and quite fussy. But, we made it to church and thru mass just fine...the church looked so gorgeous and Angel even went up and saw the nativity scene after mass. Afterwards we went to my PopPop's place and took some family pics. thanks to Aunty Megs for the girls Christmas dresses....and yes they are Hanna ones.

CONGRATULATIONS MEGHAN!!

Yesterday, Meghan (my sister) graduated from NYU Nursing program!!! My parents were able to be out there with her, and my mom actually got to pin her!! We are so proud of her. She also already got hired to work at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center on their pediatric critical observation unit. She will be taking care of some very sick little ones!! She starts February 19th and it is a great job!! To add to it, she will also be a research assistant for a project at NYU....busy girl! We love you Megs and CONGRATULATIONS!

I love to sing...
