Sick on Halloween

Kelsey participated in her first Halloween parade at MSS today. Jem and the Referee went to pick up Kelsey for the Morris Plains parade festivites only to hear that Kelsey was sick. She had lots of love and snuggles to help her get better. Even though she didn't do any of her own trick or treating she helped Jem pass out candy to our few trick or treaters. There is always next year!

First day in Huggies

Kelsey graduated to the Huggies room at MSS. Even though drop off was a little rough (for Mommy) especially when Mr Jeff asked if it was my daughter he heard screaming from her room to the lobby. Which of course it was bc Kelsey has the best lungs in the whole daycare center :). Kelsey had a great time reuniting with her old friend Emerson,painting a pumpkin and singing with Ms. Mirahm her new teacher.

Kelsey first pumpkin carving

Kelsey loved pumpkin carving. We carved a jack o latern to greet our trick or treaters tomorrow.

Malapardis Masquerade

Kelsey had the best time dressed as Minnie Mouse. She went up to all the houses and got candy, waving to everyone along the way. And she loved her black nose and freckles. What a cutie! Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa La & Mc and Meema for joining her on such a beautiful day!

Pumpkin picking

Kelsey picked the perfect pumpkin her first time in the patch at Riamede farm. She laughed as we walked up the hill and loved the wind blowing in her face. Daddy could have benefited from a jacket but it was a super fun day!

1st birthday fun

Kelsey got to enjoy her first birthday with her Grandparents and Uncle Ricky. She was so into her birthday ice cream cake :).

Kelsey's first year

We made it through the whole year of toy story month milestones. And much to Mommy's surprise her favorite was Buzz at 12 months:)

Happy 12 Months

Kelsey is one! She has about 6 teeth, kept her beautiful blue eyes and grew into her cheeks. She started whole milk, is enjoying lots of yummy food and even started walking by herself by pushing her walker. And loves dancing and clapping to Dancing with the Stars. We can't wait to see how much more she grows this next year! We are so blessed to have such a happy and healthy girl.

Last day in Snuggies

Kelsey graduated to the Huggies room at school today. She got to celebrate her birthday with a pumpkin picking event and spent the day with her new room and teachers. We are going to miss Ms. Krysta.

Toy Story Halloween

Kelsey has made Mommy so happy in that she loves playing with her new toys, especially Buzz Lightyear. And we were lucky enough to watch Toy Story Spooctacular on tv tonight. She was so memorized and smiling for the show.

Fun at Grandma La's

Kelsey loves Thursdays at Grandma's house, eating like a big girl, catching up on sleep and spending time with Grandma laughing.  (Except for the lawn guys when they cut the grass, we still have stranger danger going on for that).

Our little pumpkin

It was Orange day at MSS so Kelsey got to wear her My Little Pumpkin outfit. Getting ready for Halloween next week!

Aunt Eileen & Uncle Carey

Kelsey had a great time meeting Great Aunt Eileen and Uncle Carey. She showed them how grown up She s getting eating almost everyone's food at Rafferty' s and walking around. We are so blessed we got to see them on their trip to NJ from Georgia.

Our little walker walker

It was fitting that today Kelsey brought home pictures of her painted feet from daycare because she surprised us by pulling herself up and walking across the room pushing her zebra walker. Can't believe how big our girl is getting!

Singing bottles

Someone loves feeding herself at daycare so much so that she started singing after her bottle. That face!

Not so smiley

So we got the proofs back from Kelsey's school pictures but they were not a success. Stranger danger came into full effect and even Ms. Krysta couldn't get Kelsey to smile. There is always next year!

Kelsey's Minnie Mouse First Birthday

Kelsey was blessed to have so many family and friends over to celebrate her first birthday on a beautiful 85 degree Oct day! She wore her two Minnie dresses partying in style. And, once we moved the icing out of her way, she got right into the chocolate cake, eating about half of her smash cake! She was showing off waving, smiling and walking (with help) around the grass. We are so in love and can't believe our little girl is turning 1 in a few weeks!

Dancing with the stars baby

Guess we know that Kelsey's favorite show is now dancing with the stars. She was jumping and screaming so excited to see everyone dance and trying to dance right with them. Loving that smile and giggles.

Happy Birthday Mema

We celebrated Mema's 28th birthday at Sorrentinos. Kelsey enjoyed the carbonara,  ravioli, zucchini and mozzarella of course. We love Mema so much!
