Enjoying a rare respite from the bitter cold, we headed to Gravelly Point Park after dropping off Nonna at the airport following a fun weekend together. It was C’s first time, and he loved every minute. Here are a few snapshots of his adventures with the airplanes.
Carb addict!
While C gets his fair share of fruits and (hidden) veggies, his true food love is carbs. We’re not sure whether to be proud, as he takes after mom and dad in that regard, or fearful of an overly bread-and-pasta-laden future ahead!
Movin’ On Up
Colin moved up from the infant to toddler room at daycare at the beginning of the year, and so far it’s been a great transition as he’s loved hanging with the “older” kids. He’s on a set schedule with the rest of the group, and participating in a whole bunch of activities – from painting…
Hitting the Tropics at Home
During the coldest day of the season (to date), we hit the tropics by visiting the US Botanical Gardens. It was Colin’s first time out and about near the Capitol.

In honor of his 15-month mark, here’s what we went through during Colin’s first year: 2,476 bottles totaling 86 gallons of milk/formula 2,611 diapers We don’t even want to…

Gifts and kids were a theme of the day for Christmas! Between Santa and Nonna (and Papa), C was in gift overload! Luckily, there were lots of kids around to play with everything!

Not to be outdone with all the fun of our Maryland Christmas, our time in Connecticut was a whirlwind of holiday celebrations with just as much, food, toys and family chaos. Here’s just a snippet of Christmas Eve…
