Supper Time

Neither Mommy nor Daddy are big fans of photographs of babies with food smeared all over their faces. But who can resist these happy Mama-Piera pics, starring Mom's homemade green veggies and apricot puree and of course, the bottle.

Favorite Niece

Aww! Love you too Auntie Daners!

Happy Baby

]The Happiest Baby On The Block is the name of a book, but we think it describes our little Piera to a tee. Here she is a the park last Sunday in her plaid Janie and Jack dress and bonnet.

Tourist T-Shirt

For an almost 8-month-old, Piera has quite the wardrobe; scarcely a questionable outfit has entered her dresser. The exception might be this orange tie-dye (yes, tie-dye!) slogan T-shirt set that her Jeff bought her in Key West. It is however the thought that counts—thank you Jeff! Meantime, Mommy thinks this is the perfect outfit for mealtimes, especially now that Piera has added Mommy's homemade green vegetable puree (a mix of peas, broccoli, onion and potato) and papaya to her diet. Yay!

Day At The Beach

It was steaming hot with no breeze on the shores of the Hudson River, but Mama, Piera and Daddy still had a great afternoon at the beach.

Love, Love

Piera has been on a preppy kick lately; today our l'il fashionista sported her own Ralph Lauren tennis whites. Inspiration? Serena Williams.

Preppy Style

There are so many reasons to love P's new Janie and Jack dress—among them, its pique polo fabric, the adorable crab, seashell and whale print and the fact that it was on sale for $13. Nice!

The Nano

Piera has been eating solids--mostly Mommy's purees--for some time now, but we just assembled our highchair (Thank you, Auntie Val, for the shower gift). It's the Nano urban highchair and Mama is a big fan of its streamlined style and faux-leather seat. Piera is a big fan of mango, bananas and tofu, steamed plums, pear and apples with cinnamon and chicken with carrots and sweet potatoes. She is not a fan of anything green (brocolli, peas, avocado, we're talking to you).

Florida Style

Today Piera had a lot of fun dressing like a Florida grandma in a terry-cloth jumper from Ralph Lauren...

And hanging out with her look-alike, a pink poodle.
