Gianna in her new hat and gloves. 

Gianna, a little tired. (Momma Nowk, you may recognize the drooping eye!) 

Gianna, exhausted after a day of feasting on turkey (dogs).  

The happy family on Thanksgiving day. 

The aftermath of our Thanksgiving repast on a very rainy Thanksgiving day. 

Here we are seated before the Thanksgiving spread. 

Nicki and Gia in their Thanksgiving duds. (Two beautiful ladies, eh?) 

Turkey's done! The cook in his new kitchen. 

Our guests for Thanksgiving, Tom (another new hire in Salem State's English Dept.) and his wife Melissa. Melissa's son Jason joined us as well. 

Gianna playing with her ENORMOUS frog balloon. 

Gianna here is sad that Grandma and Grandpa are leaving--time for a good-bye walk! 

Gianna here is test driving several hats and a plastic bib in her room. She is quite happy with them. 

Yeah! Candy! 

Gianna doing a bit of light reading before we go out trick or treating. 

Gianna in her lobster costume for Halloween: trying it out in the crib before hitting the streets. 

We just got our first taste of rough New England weather. The winds were so harsh that this sailboat (about a 24 footer) washed up on shore across the street from us!  

Walking in Mommy's (running) shoes already. 

Our daughter--the life of the party. 

Bath time! (Oh, she will hate this photo later in life!) 

Sunday morning fun! 

Gianna and Dad keeping abreast of Bay State news.  

Ever since she started walking, Gianna's been very interested in shoes--particularly in putting them on her arms. 

Our happy girl! 

Gia still likes playing in her crib. 

Gianna's mobile now, and gearing up for Halloween.
