Happy "Dada Day" and 1st time at the shore
Keith just celebrated his first father's day and it was a nice time. We were all down the shore for the weekend. We stayed at the Villas, which is basically Wildwood's bay with Keith's close friend George, who is like a brother to us. Although the weather showed more rain then sun, we all had a good time.
Aiden slept in our room for the first time since he was 5 weeks old and it went well. We were surprised how well he did, as he slept in a pack n play (which he hasn't done in about 3-4 months) and was happy all weekend long. He was just awesome and we couldn't ask for anything more.
Unfortunately, Aiden didn't really see much of the beach and didn't get to the boardwalk. We did take him to the bay and he was loving the ocean, talking and all. Here are some pics.
We hope everyone had a great "Dada" day!

The Next Generation
We also had a playdate with our friends the Perillo's recently. Dave, Tracy & Sam are close to our hearts for many reasons, and we've shared many of life's trials and celebrations together, but the coolest thing is Sam and Aiden mark the 3rd generation of the Perillo and Giosa friendship.
It all started with Keith's and Dave's parents, who have been friends for over 35 years....
Then Dave & Keith- They spent time together as kids, reconnected through a friend in their young 20's. Then Dave & Tracy got engaged one month before Keith & Alison, which brought on a new friendship between Alison & Tracy...
Alison and Tracy have become good friends over the years between sharing their wedding planning, their first few years of marriage, their pregnancy, and parenthood together....
And now, Aiden and Sam will hopefully become good friends. Tracy captured their first meeting and playdate, so here's some pics.
Sammie gets married
One family event we've attended is Alison's cousin Samantha recently getting married this past Saturday. It's was a great wedding and a beautiful day. Congrats Mr & Mrs Maffei.
Life's been crazy
It's been forever since the last post, but life has been very busy over the last month. We have attended a variety of family and friend parties, so we're exhausted. Alison started a new PERM job. It's 15mins from home in Exton doing medical staffing for the army & airforce and so far she loves it. Keith has wrapped up another school year and has taken on a new gig working as a Dueling Piano 1-2 days per week, this is in addition to his band gigs.
We had some major family milestones- Aiden turned 6 months old on May 20th and Keith and Alison celebrated their 5 yr wedding anniversary on May 22nd. Aiden continues to grow and get bigger each day. He's now 17.5 lbs and 26 3/4 inches long. He's sitting up on his own and for longer periods now and starting to scoot a little bit, so our lives will soon change with baby gates and child proofing. He's so much fun and has us laughing all the time, except when he decides sleeping is overrated. We're working on the cry it out method, hard, but effective.
