We Did It!

One festive holiday puzzle took three adults three days (and a lot of alcohol!).

Christmas

Nutcracker

Debbie took Gigi to the Nutcracker at Lincoln Center today. She said once the show started Gigi didn’t say one word for the entire 2-hour performance except for the part when Marie ran across the stage to throw her slipper at the Mouse King – she yelled “GO MARIE!”

When the show was over and they walked out of the theatre, a snow storm had started in New York City (which, to Gigi, is still magical)

Then she was all tuckered out for the subway ride home

So this recently started happening…

I guess she’s listening…

Cozy

Pure. Christmas. Magic.

Watching her put the star on the tree is one of the simplest joys I have ever experienced.

Christmas Tradition!

Gigi was thrilled to hang her Christmas wreath in commemoration of her fourth Christmas ever! Thank you, Papa Bob, for this sweet tradition. It is so thoughtful and really gets us all in the holiday spirit!

First Hot Cocoa

She fell fast…

Daddy’s Little Helper

“I like hot chocolate!”

Thanksgiving!

We spent Thanksgiving in Cleveland with the Goldian crew and Mimi! We had a blast and Gigi got to spend lots of quality time with her cousins, Jack and Reid, who couldn’t be sweeter to her. Jack patiently played “soccer” with her, and Reid went to great lengths to ensure Gigi stayed safe on the train ride. ❤️

Santa!

While in Cleveland, Gigi was fortunate to have spent some time with the Big Guy. When we got back to New York, Miss Cait asked Gigi where she went for Thanksgiving, and Gigi told her, “The North Pole.” Naturally.
