Saturdays With Gabriella

Being that Easter is right around the corner, we decided that we'd set out for Short Hills Mall to not only get Gaby the perfect little Easter dress but that this would also be a great time to let Gaby visit with the Easter Bunny himself.

Sadly we only accomplished one of those. Apparently the Short Hills Mall is a tad to highbrow for the Easter Bunny. But never fear, where there is a very determined mommy, there will be a visit with the Easter Bunny! And we still came home with a perfectly darling Easter outfit, and then some. What can I say, I'm a sucker for sales at Gymboree and Children's Place.

Here we are, pre-outing, getting ready to go.



We're at the mall now and here's Gaby in her Urban Assault Stroller (Gareth made the mistake of calling it a "wheel chair" and had me thinking our daughter had all of a sudden become handicapped. *lol*).....Yes Mom, I'll get you and Nancy a better picture of the UAS so you can see what I'm talking about and why I called it that......



Back home again with Daddy......



Here's one of the things I DID manage to find whilst shopping.....TOO CUTE!!!!!!





And here's Gaby and mommy just kicking back at home enjoying the afternoon.



"Eskimo Kisses" are something we do everyday, it's one of our favourite things.....






That about sums up our Saturday. Gaby really enjoyed people-watching at the mall, especially whilst we were stopped in one of the plush common areas to feed her and sat right behind us was a really nice family who happened to bring along a "pocket pet"....a really cute Yorkie. Normally I don't care for small dogs, especially Yorkies, but this little fella was adorable and really captured Gaby's attention for probably 15 solid minutes.

Gaby also managed to garner the attention of lots of passers-by, all commenting on how cute she is and what a pretty baby she is, and I whole-heartedly agree, if I do say so myself. But then, I'm her mom and I tend to agree with anyone who has anything nice to say about my kids.
