First Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas. Rocco got so many gifts! Papa & Nana got him the little '55 Chevy to match Daddy's. Uncle G.J. got him Elmo which has been more entertaining for all of the adults. Cousin Vinnie visited and brought a Cal shirt for him. What a lucky boy!!!

Auntie Budge's new car

Yes, she got the car I really wanted. There isn't much room in it for the baby, all the gear, and a wheel chair so I'm glad she has it to let me drive once in a while ;) Congrats Budge!!!

Sunday morning football

Meaghan, Krista, and Sean came over to watch the football game. Chargers vs. Chiefs so Sean had to come over to mess with Rocky. Rocco loved all of the attention and Punchy fell in love with Meaghan! Meaghan, she misses you!!!

Punchy is ready for Christmas

I put a few presents under the tree today. When I got back from the store one of them had been opened. Hmmm...who could have done that?! Thank you Auntie Gum for the adorable cowboy boots for Rocco!

Birthday Brunch

Nicole was so sweet to get a few girls together for brunch to celebrate my birthday. We are definitely getting old, look at all the babies!

Audrey's Birthday Party

Cousin Audrey's 1st birthday party. The theme was "Breakfast at Audrey's" so Domenica and I made a cake to look like a Tiffany's box. Audrey enjoyed eating it!

Snuggling with Uncle Ken

Rocco was so cozy sleeping on Uncle Ken!

Holiday card photo attempt

Yes, I know it's difficult to get a baby and a dog to sit there and look cute at the same time. I had to try though. It didn't work out but we got some funny pictures. I like the close up, they both look like they've just been busted for something!

Meeting Uncle Joey!

We went to Aunt Frannie & Aunt Debbie's coffee shop, the Country Farm House. Rocco likes Francesca! He also met Great Uncle Joey who showed us how to give him a "horsie ride."

Mommy is old!

Rocco was sick for the first time and it happened to be on Mommy's 30th birthday. So we went to Bachi's house for dinner. He wasn't so sure about those candles.

Finally couches!

We've been in our house for nearly 2 years and we just got couches for the living room!!! It's quite exciting. Where is my big protector dog when the delivery guys are at the door... I miss Chopper.

Adrey & Rocco

Cousin Audrey loves Rocco and gives him hugs every time she sees him!!!

....and a few more

...more professional pics

Professional pictures

About one month ago we had some professional pictures done. It happened to be a day when there were some big fires going so we got an amazing sunset! There are so many good ones it's hard to choose but here are a few. I'm sure you'll see a lot of these hanging on our walls soon.

Playing with his cousins

We went over to J.R.'s house. Between Jordan and William there was a lot of action for Rocco to watch.

Another football game

Hanging out with Papa Ralph! Daddy always has him doing the "Touchdown" motion.
