Circa 1980

Recognize anyone in these pictures? It's Mama when she was Piera's age!

Ruffly Hat

On Saturday, a box of gently used hand-me-downs from our friend Adara (21 months) arrived at our doorstep. Mommy loved Piera in this white hat.

Thank you, Adara.

Rubber Ducky

Like most everything these days, the rubber duck ended up in Piera's mouth.

Yum.

Carseat Photoshoot

Fort Tryon Park

For her first mommy/baby picnic, Piera borrowed Owen's safari hat.

Spring

It's still cold but everything is in bloom at Fort Tryon Park, down the street from our apartment.

Bunny Wunny

Today is Piera's first Easter. The dress is from Baby Gap. Doesn't she look beautiful?

Q&A

Q: What happened to the rest of Piera's dress?
A: Daddy daycare.

(But she looks so cute anyway!)

Bonding With Daddy

Why is Piera so happy?

Four words: Major League Baseball Package.

Frequent Flier Miles

On Sunday, Mama and Piera flew home from Vermont. The flight was an hour and ten minutes, just long enough for Piera to catch a bit of TV—if only the screen wasn't behind her head. Stupid rear-facing carseat!

Future Ballerina

Mommy thinks this ballet slipper onesie from Carters may be an omen of Piera's future.

Snowsuits

A baby bunting from baby clothier, Makie: Expensive.

Dressing your kid like it's Halloween in April: Priceless.

PS. How cute are Owen and Piera in their cold-weather gear? More irresistible pics here.

Pillow Talk

Auntie Dana was not a morning person.

The Wash Pod

When Susan and Danielle gave Piera the Prince Lionhart bath tub at Mommy's baby shower, the card read: "When you're done with this, it can be re-purposed as...a mop bucket."

Good idea, ladies!
