Naughty or Nice?

Well, Santa must have decided Stella, Dash and I made the "nice" list this year. We may have had our fair share of meltdowns in the past few weeks, ramping up to the big event, but all in all, we've been pretty good this year. Stella was such a star in her school play last week. Pics are below. On Christmas eve, we went to mass at Sacred Heart church and then headed to Grammy and Grampy's for dinner. Christmas day, Mommy made dinner (thanks Grammy for the ham and cannoli!). We are exhausted, but our bellies are full and our playroom is, too :) Happy Holidays, everyone!

Christmas is Almost Here...

and because of the sheer chaos of the season, we have been quite neglectful in our online postings. Many apologies, fans. The past two weeks have been filled with holiday cheer, Indiana family visits, best friend birthday parties and lots of quality time with our new, little brother. Annabel Mae, Sissy's best friend, turned two this past week. We celebrated with a princess-fabulous birthday party, Princess Aurora was there and everything! She might have had a two-bit wig on, but we didn't care... we thought she was tres glamorous! ;) The next day, Mama Vi & Baba Bill came into town to celebrate an "early Christmas" with us. I had a hard time accepting that Santa was not indeed shooting down our chimney that night... it's sure hard to wait for Christmas number 2! Thanks to Mama Vi and Baba Bill for our spectacular new toys and clothes. We love them! Only 6 days until Santa comes (and Jesus' birthday, as Mommy likes to remind us)... we couldn't be more excited. Enjoy the new pics below.

Happy Holidays!
Stella (VV and Dash, too!)

Let me Introduce Myself...

Hello, people, my name is Dash and while I've only been on this earth for 2 weeks (today is my actual 2 week birthday!), I decided it was time to become a contributing writer to this estrogen-dominated web page. From this point forward, I will represent the men in my house. Daddy, this post is for you! Here are some shots of our recent escapades. Most have been holiday related and all have been "firsts" for me. Hope you enjoy and look forward to more from the Dash man very soon.
