Nonna has arrived!

My mom flew into Venice last Friday with our dog and two cats (yes, she may be a little crazy but it is only because she would do anything for anyone). We are so excited that she is here and gets to meet Sadie while she is little. Nonna is grandmother in Italian. Here is a little of what we have been doing since she got here:

Lots of cuddling



Hanging out at coffee shops







Taking fun day trips. This one was to Lake Barcis




Firsts

A bunch of firsts (in no particular order)



First family pic:)



First diaper change



First photo shoot with my awesome boots



First trip to the pool



First day home without Daddy:(



First bath



First trip to the doctor (two week check up)

First Trip to the Market

At 1 1/2 weeks old, we decided that Sadie needed to make a trip to the Pordenone market.



We did lots of things like shop for produce, cheese, and random articles of clothing.



Unfortunately, while Kwame and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, Sadie found the market to be rather boring! Maybe next time she will manage to stay awake for it.


Our Bambina!

As many of you know, we welcomed our beautiful little bundle of joy, Sadie Jayne, to the world on September 19 in the very early hours of the morning. Kwame is planning on writing an entry about her arrival but hasn't gotten to it yet*. In the meantime, I am posting this so that he has a place to write and I can get on with the rest of our Italian life.



*That isn't totally true. I asked him to delete or immediately edit the first one that he wrote so now we are just waiting for the newer version.
