Happy Anniversary, Bubbie and Zeyde!!
We (Michele) cooked Shabbat dinner for Bubbie and Zeyde’s anniversary this weekend. She did a beautiful job with the table and the meal!
Anxiously awaiting the Shabbat songs…
Joey was tired before we sat down for dinner, but he hung strong…
Probably because he got to eat Mac ‘n Cheese and play with Bubbie’s bracelets

We got to celebrate our anniversary a few days early too!! Thanks for the beautiful challah platter, Bubbies:)
Saturday morning we showed Joey what a pillow fight is all about. It was pretty one-sided, but Joey loved it!
Joey and I spent Saturday afternoon at the Merchandise Mart walking around the furniture sale. We helped Cari furnish her new place and we even found adorable end tables for Joey’s playroom!

Back in Action
Although Joey typically goes to bed with almost no coaxing, he’s been protesting when Daddy tries to get him to bed. Finally, this week, Daddy’s back in action! Joey’s also decided to sleep through the night again. We cut out his 3rd daytime nap and I think it has made all the difference.
Despite having nice comfy crib, Joey immediately rolls to the corner each time we put him down. Often times, he wakes up with bar lines on his head…
Joey wakes up a happy camper in the morning, allowing for some bonding time before we both head off to work.
Happy 30th Vinnie :)
Happy Birthday, Uncle Vinnie! We spent Friday and Saturday night celebrating and had a great time! On Friday, Bubbie cooked a special shabbat dinner and had Vinnie’s parents over. She made a nice spread, and even made a spaghetti and meatball cake for dessert!

Saturday night, Lori hosted his 30th birthday party at Duchamp. The food was amazing, as was the outdoor space/private room she had it in. This was an adults-only event, so Joey got to hang out with Stacy and Jason all night. They all had a blast and the parents-to-be got some good practice before their little one arrives in just a couple of weeks!

Our Little Mozart
Alright, maybe not mozart, but he does like making noise…We checked out Wonder, the new baby store in Deerfield, with Nonny and Poppy. They just returned from a 3-week Asia trip and were having Joey withdrawal.
I keep giving Joey his Hannukah presents early. I love watching him explore new things (and I love to shop) so it works out well for all parties.

Another First!
Joey watched snowfall for the first time this afternoon. Alyssa caught him gazing outside at the flakes…
Food update: Joey loves that he’s finally getting something more than milk. It’s so nice to sit down for dinner as a family…So far, he’s tried a dozen or so foods. Here’s how they stack up:
Apple (likes, but not as much as I do!)
Avocado (dislikes)
Banana (loves, but makes his constipated)
Banana Gelato (loves, but definitely did NOT have permission to try, Bubbie)
Butternut squash (likes)
Carrots (dislikes)
Chicken (majorly dislikes….He spits it across the room every time he takes a bite)
Cucumber (likes)
Orange (loves)
Peach (likes, but only mixed with rice cereal)
Pear (likes)
Peas (dislikes)
Plum (likes)
Pumpkin (likes)
Sweet potato (likes)

Joey’s New Talent
Joey picked up this new habit last week. He’s doing it more and more because Greg and I can’t stop laughing, which is only encouraging him to continue. It’s extra-messy when he does it with applesauce or milk in his mouth…

Cari F. Silverman, J.D.
We had to do something special for Cari’s Swearing In, as she was only allowed 4 tickets to the actual ceremony (and we travel in a herd). Abby secured some top-notch judge, Judge Amy St. Eve, to perform the ceremony and Michele did her party-planning magic with just a few days notice. Cari was legitimately surprised, which I think is a first in my family (we’re always blowing secrets)…

Ready for Winter!
Despite Greg giving me a mouthful every time I dress Joey up like a doll, I enjoy it too much to stop!

Movin’ On Up…
Joey’s finally graduated to sitting with us at the dinner table. It was so nice to sit all together (and eat together too). This week, we introduced Joey to pears. They’re definitely the favorite, but I imagine when he tastes Bubbie’s homemade applesauce, there will be no competition!

Can’t Believe It’s November
We got to meet Great Aunt Val and Great Uncle Shel for brunch on Saturday morning. Val has started the tradition of bringing Joey a book each time she sees him (and we love it!).
After brunch, I tried taking advantage of the warm November weather by taking Joey shopping along Michigan Avenue. Little did I know, the Silverman’s had unintentionally taken over the street for the afternoon.
