gigi will have his portrait painted

Gigi is very excited. He is going to have a one of a kind Gigi portrait painted! Jennifer Haley, a local mom and friend has been commissioned and we can't wait to hang this very treasured art in Ruby's room!

Pop-Pop was over and taught Gigi and Ruby how to make newspaper hats. It was a lot of fun!

spring ahead

"Gigi was a little shy of changing his clock because he made his Ruby do it. So funny- couldn't believe it."- direct quote from Ruby on changing the clocks forward one hour
Gigi is excited for spring.

gigi + gogo?

We have tried for a while now to get the baby hooked on something like her sister is hooked on gigi. For all of the times when it has been a pain to have gigi in our lives such as when we can't find him at crucial boo boo or bedtime moments, or when Ruby wants to bring him places she should not like school, restaurants etc, gigi has been a great pal and we love him (hence his own website). The baby could really use something to help her settle down sometimes.

So since we have 2 other stuffies like gigi around (because mommy bought 2 extra just in case), we are giving it a try. We call the one we have been forcing on the baby "gogo".

Here they all are enjoying popcorn and The Lion King on VHS. As you can see, little progress has been made as she is clearly not clutching him near and dear like Ruby is her gigi. Oh well, we will keep at it.
