Good Morning, My Angel Boy, Liam!

Yesterday was Nonna's birthday. She and Grandpa came over and brought their new puppy, Avery. She and Lucy played like crazy. Your big brother finds it hysterical when they run and their ears flop up and down. I made a wonderful dinner- if I do say so myself! We had ice cream birthday cake and carved a pumpkin together.
