11 months old today!
Lyla truly is perfect in every way! She still has the best personality and is always so happy! She still sleeps great (2 naps and 12 hours at night). She is army crawling EVERYWHERE and it is just the cutest thing to watch as she gets around. She recently got her ears pierced and didn't even cry! She can sit up now but with assistance (not on her own yet). She also learned how to clap her hands which melts our hearts to see!
Lastly, this girl loves to EAT!!! She would eat all day if I let her. The girl loves her CARBS!!!! Bread, Muffins, Pizza Crust...She loves it! Here is our sweet Lyla Rose!
Family Photo Shoot!
We had family photos taken of us this past week and let me just say it didn't go as smooth as we would've liked. Our girls were not cooperating. Lyla wasn't looking at the camera at all and Emma didn't want to get her white dress dirty. I only have 2 photos right now and the photographer is sending the rest to us in 10 days. Here they are.....What does everybody think?
Bronx Zoo With the Camenga's
We finally got to meet the Camenga family today! It was so nice to meet everyone! Seamus is even cuter in person then in pics Emily posts of him. He was just great! Grace and Emma hit it off right away. They were holding hands and talking with each other. It was so adorable to see and Liam was even chubbier in person! LOL! I just love chubbyness!!! There was only one set back.....my niece Katie! Towards the middle of our visit she was not very happy and wouldn't stop crying. We had to cut our visit with the Camenga's short because of the situation( Sorry Camenga's ). So by 2:30 we had to leave the Bronx Zoo. During our trip home we were stuck in "bumper to bumper" traffic. We were not moving at all. Apparently, a tree hit a moving vehicle and caused a big accident! Katie was not happy but then Aunt Leslie saved the day.....I always have yummy treats on hand! Here are some pics of the "GRACELLI" Bronx Zoo Adventure! (Granshaw and Porcelli put together!)

Love the family pictures!!!! I am happy that you where able to meet up with the Camenga family. Looks like you all had a great time except for the ride home..lol
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I cannot believe that traffic! That must have been terrible! Poor Katie, I'm glad she got a fruit roll-up and a little snooze! We had a great day with all of you. Hope we can do it again soon! I love the family pictures!
ReplyDeleteLyla sounds like she is doing so great! Happy 11 months, Lyla!! Love that beautiful photo of her!
ReplyDeleteLove the family photo on the pier! I hope you post more of your family photos when you get them from the photographer!
Yay for meeting up with the Camenga family at the zoo! It looks like everyone had a lot of fun! Adorable photos!! Sorry to hear that your niece was missing her nap so much though. Wish we could have met up with you guys too, but hopefully we will be able to make it the next time!
Oh my - sorry about that traffic too. It looks like it really wore everyone out. :)
Ok I just caught up on your last two posts. The Long Island Game Farm0brings back so many summer memories! Love it. That bumper to bumper traffic leaving the Bronx also brings back memories of New York, however no pleasant ones. I do NOT miss that traffic. So glad you got to meet Em and Devon and family. Emily was my first POLP friend. We wish we could have joined you for the adventure. Hopefully one day soon! I do like the family photos so far. You guys are all so beautiful! Hopefully phone date very soon!
