A couple weekends ago (I've really lost the ability to be timely, haven't I?!), Veronica's beloved godfathers, Ben and Nigel, hosted a little afternoon gathering at their place. Never one to turn down an opportunity to cuddle on V (or a good bowl of Irish stew), we turned out in force.
Look at that sweet sweetness! I don't know any little girl that's more loved, which is a wonderful thing to be able to admit.
Of course, she totally deserves it. Look how she sits! And beams! And is adorable! I also love that Amanda "Punk Rock" Gore has no shame about outfitting that little trinket in the most frilly, pink dresses known to man.
Smirk on, mama! You know you do it! AMANDA LOVES PINK.
Zia Hannah and Auntie Amber share in my mockery... although we'd dress her in pink ourselves in a heartbeat. And what's a "Zia" you ask? Oh, Hannah and I are Zias, thank you very much! Zia is Italian for "Aunt" and since we want to claim as much face time as possible with little V for the next 20-30 years (and we're not girls to deny our love of pasta), we figured we should title ourselves.
Of course, any outing with Veronica turns into a pass-the-mic scenario. But instead of being MC's, we're gooing admirers. And instead of being a mic, she's... well, she's a baby. Check out Stacie Phelps, rockin' the baby!
And I would not kid to you about the Irish stew, I'm still dreaming of it... how delicious does this spread look? Yummm. Maybe I shouldn't blog so close to lunch time.
Veronica wanted to try the stew thiiiiiis much, but Hannah told her to forget it. It's milk for you, baby! Talk to us when you have some teeth. (Incidentally, she's working round the clock on growing said teeth...)
See! This is where she's going to put the teeth when she gets them!
I love this picture, they're both so delighted to be there! Nigel and Ben are going to be such tremendous godfathers to Veronica, just seeing how they look at her (and look after her) shows me how protected she'll be.
Everyone say "stew!". Thanks again for having us over, I know we all had a great time (especially Laszlo, who made official his love of shoveling dirt).
