He's here!

Joseph Michael Gianola, III born at 11:34am October 13, 2011. 7lbs 4oz 19.5 inches of sweetness! More pics to come later!

Well, in exactly one week Elle will be a big sister if all goes according to planned. I am scheduled to have baby boy Gianola next Thursday so i thought i would post some pics of his room. Elle is so excited and talks about him all the time. I wonder if she will feel the same way when he goes home with us. Elle started potty training on Monday this week at her school and she is doing awesome so far. She had one accident monday and tuesday but NONE on wednesday and thursday. She has gotten it down now and is telling me when she has to go instead of me having to ask her! So proud of her and can't believe it was that fast.

Seaside 2011

We took our annual trip to Seaside with Josh's family and it was great as always. I didn't know how much fun I would be having since i am almost 9 months pregnant but I didn't let it slow me down. We swam, ate, watched football, and just relaxed.

NYC

I also just got back from an AWESOME trip to NYC for the US Open. We got to see Sharapova and Nadal play. Loved it!
