Brooklyn Battles the Bugs!

After four hours at emergency with a very high fever and a large red rash on her upper right leg, Brooklyn was sent to stay at the Langley Memorial Hospital while she was treated for Strep throat and a Staph infection on her legs. She spent three nights and two days in the Pediatric ward. Mom and Dad stayed close by her side.

While at the hospital, Brooklyn made many friends with the nurses…her favourite being nurse Lynn. Nurse Lynn taught her how to speak French! While Brooklyn enjoyed the special attention from the nursing staff, she did not like having an IV in her arm and being immobile. Brooklyn just wanted to go home and so did we!

Our Family Vacation

On February 5th, Nonno Tony and Nonna Rita took all of us kids to Puerto Vallarta for an extended family vacation. We stayed at The Palladium Resort and Spa which had its very own private beach. All twelve of us managed to have a lot of fun; especially the kids!
Brooklyn is a true beach girl!

Brielle and Brooklyn hit the beach on our very first day. It didn’t take the girls long to fall in love with the beach and the waves. Brielle tried boogie boarding and loved it!

Many a days were spent swimming and playing at the pool. Brooklyn loved splashing around in the water while playing with her toys.

Is that a margarita you’re drinking Brielle????

The kids loved every moment of the vacation and were sad the day we had to leave.

La Famiglia Mexicana!

Look…it’s all of the girl cousins. What cutie-pies!
