Bassinet days are limited...

Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.5

Genevieve it looks like your bassinet days are limited! You have been sleeping in the bassinet and our bed since you were born. You almost have outgrown your bassinet, just a few more pounds/inches and you will have to learn how to sleep in your beautiful crib Great Grandma Theresa bought you.

The bassinet is very special to our family. Your Great Grandma Peri bought the bassinet in 1948 at a shop in Los Angeles when she was pregnant with Grandpa Gino. Since then many babies have slept in it!

Louis Di Donato- Grandpa
Angela (Di Donato) Robinson- Great Aunt
Frank and Alice La Pinta's (Peri Di Donato's brother) 3 children
Robbie (Clay) Robinson - 2nd cousion
Chris (Clay) Robinson- 2nd cousion
Gina (Clay Robinson) Parker- 2nd Cousion
Ann (Di Donato) Lara- Mommy
Teresa (Di Donato) Mitchell- Aunt
Nirel Berz (Gina's daughter)- 3rd cousion
Ari Berz (Gina's son)- 3rd cousion
Genevieve Tessie Lara- thats's you!

I am sure Aunt Teresa's kids will sleep in it (future cousins of  yours one day!) and maybe even your children one day (a long long long long time from now!).

Home Tour Day

It was home tour day! After hours of research and preparation, not to mention the rain, the day went very well. The property was excellent, all my docents showed up (thank you!) and the guests seem to really enjoy the tour. I know I always say I get suckered into it, but at the end of the day I do really enjoy it!

Ontario Reign Game

Well it seems like forever but we finnally got to go to a Reign game together. We dressed you as Santa in hopes you would get us on the jumbotron but no such luck! Maybe next time we will get to see your cute face up there for everyone to see!!

Grandpa's Birthday

In typical tradition we went over to Grandma and Grandpa's house to decorate the tree for Grandpa's birthday. Before we did that we went out to dinner at Black Angus (Scott and Teresa to!). It was this same time last year we told Aunt Teresa and Uncle Scott about you! After a nice dinner we headed up to the house to put some ornaments on the tree. You looked so cute in your little pea coat we put on you.

Holiday Cards Mailed!

Better late then not at all, our holiday cards went out today. They turned out so cute with the 3 pictures of you across the front. I also put a 4x6 of all of with Santa in the envelope. I ordered 75 cards and only have a few left over, you have lots of people that love you Genevieve! I also put this blog address so I hope some of your friends come on here and check it out!

Upland Home Tour

It is crunch time! The home tour is this Sunday and I am trying to get everything ready! I have done all my research, printed my photos and I spent tonight writing all the scripts for the rehearsal tomorrow night. Daddy took good care of you while I spent the night typing away. This picture is you with some of the old historic photos of 2nd Street here in Upland. 

Genevieve and Athenia

Baby Athenia is only a week old and so tiny! We went over to Eric and Lisa's house to visit with them and see the little baby. You love looking at babies! When we were taking this picture baby Athenia was crying and you are giving her a look, letting her know it is ok in this world! I can't wait for them to move back into there 7th Street house so you two can play together...
