Our first trip was down to Surfside Beach, South Carolina for a wonderful Manella/Black/Mackenzie/Magidson Thanksgiving celebration. Unfortunately, we didn't snap many photos... We did get a few good ones of brotherly love/flexing, the chow line, Tami and Ian sharing some QT, and the famous family game of Risk (Ian took home the trophy).
As if the great Thanksgiving celebration wasn't enough, the ladies threw me what would be the first of many baby showers.
For Christmas it was up to NJ to celebrate with the Stelling/Lettieri clan.
Day after Christmas we hit the city with a bazillion other people to take in the sites. As is common with a pregnant woman, we ended up spending most of our time eating. First we hit Lombardi's in Little Italy for some awesome pizza. Tip - Don't order the breadsticks they're so-so and will totally fill you up. SAVE ROOM FOR THE PIZZA! Then we met up with Laura and Jess in Gramercy Park at Novita. I can't believe we didn't take any pictures there.
Before heading home, we had time for a Buddy Breakfast at the Donovan's. Of course breakfast sandwiches from the Sea Breeze Deli were on the menu. Unfortunately, only Maeve was allowed in the stim tank...
After all this traveling and family time with Gravy, Amber, and Indy - Tootsie was exhausted and so were we.
