Can't Wait for the Superbowl!

I don't know why, but it took me a while to get really excited for this one (super bowl). But now, I just can't wait. I don't know if it was the Patriots cupcakes that one of my students brought in (which took every once of energy not to eat), or if it's watching media day and what clowns the Giants are! I just know that I'm psyched! How great is it to be a sports fan from Boston right now???? Go Pats!!!!

What a weekend!

Ava G and I were on our own most of the weekend. Daddy went to the Celtics with Andy Friday night, and we had a girls night!! Saturday, we hit the mall and BJs. What fun! Daddy left us again to play soccer in New York on Saturday. We were happy to have him all day Sunday with him though. Can't wait for the Super Bowl!! Go Pats!!!

Well...

Ava is now standing on her own. She pulls up and then takes her hands off whatever she's holding on to. Amazing!!! We had a great weekend watching the Pats at Tom and Dave's place. Love the late night (8:00?) dance party! So fun! Thank god we won that one!!! Can't wait for the Super Bowl!

9 Month Check Up

I can't believe that we were at Ava's 9 month appointmnet today! How time flies!!!Well... she "weighed in" at 20 lbs 7 oz, and she's 28 1/2 inchec long! She is in the 75% for weight and the 76% for height. Dr. D'Souza said she looks awesome, and that she'll definitely be walking well before her 1st birthday! Look out!!! Here she comes!!!

9 Month Check-Up Tomorrow!!! Can't wait!

Snow Day

Jimmy, Ava, Morty, and I enjoyed our first snow day all together! Jim made some calls from home, so that we could all hang out together. We made Ava's favorite, pancakes, for breakfast, and we had amazing pizza for lunch. I guess there is no such thing as calories on a snow day! Too bad the gym's closed too! We brought Ava out in the snow. She was too funny. Completely amazed by the snow!! What a fun day!

Avaa and Daddy at his soccer game

Daddy's Soccer Game

Ava went to Daddy's first home indoor soccer game of the season. Too bad they lost, but we had fun with Catherine, Tim, and Carrie. Better luck next time, Daddy!

Ava's Gettin' Another Tooth

Ava's cutting her 6th tooth!!! I can't believe she has so many! She's dealing with it fine, just a little fussy here and there... Jimmy has his first home soccer game this Saturday @ 6:00. They're playing the NY Shockers! Can't stand those guys!! Hope they win...Pats too! Can't wait for the games!!!

New Years Eve Pictures

Here are some pics from New Years at Erin and Ryan's! Tanks guys!!!

Go Patriots!!!!

Happy 2008

I can't believe that it's 2008! We had a wonderful time at Erin and Ryan's over New Year's. Erin made an amazing dinner of roast beef and mashed potatoes and broccoli! Yum!!!! We played some fun games!! I love the new electronic Catch Phrase!!! Amazing!! Jimmy got pretty drunk...He has an excuse since it is his birthday. Overall, good times were had by all!

On New Year's Day we went to dinner at the Beverly Depot for Jimmy's birthday dinner. Sue, Jim, Diane, Donnie, Chris, Jess, Annalisa, Chris, Amy, Justin, Ava and I were all there to celebrate! I think most of us had some for of surf and turf (I had fillet and lobster tails)! We had never eaten there, and I thought the food was really good! We had some good wine and even better conversation!
