I am posting this almost a month late 😅
After 3 trips to the doctor, over a month of sickness, fevers, coughs, teething, and one extremely unhappy baby… I just could not get pictures for the longest time. So I’m finally posting his 11 month update now 🤍
11 months…
It’s been a wild, emotional, exhausting month over here. Our biggest one yet.
How are we already here? How is my baby going to be ONE in just a few weeks…
Rocco is officially on the move — full-on walking everywhere like he owns the place. He’s saying “mama” (on repeat 🥹), figured out how to go up and down the stairs, and popped another tooth. So many big milestones packed into such a short time.
We also closed a really big chapter… we’re done breastfeeding 🤍
That’s why there aren’t many pictures this month… just a lot of snuggles, long nights, and doing our best to get through it together.
But even in the chaos, the milestones still happened. He’s growing, changing, and becoming his own little person right before my eyes.
Here’s to hoping month 12 brings us back to more smiles, more sleep, and a happy, healthy boy 🤍
Almost one, my love.
This is what April looked like 🌷🌱🌼🐣 🐰 🎂

Happy 43rd Birthday to our guy, our rock 🤍 @ob1_gibroni
The smartest, most patient, caring, and loving man and still such a hottie 😉 (especially with that backwards hat and a little chest hair moment 😏)
You’re not just the best husband and dad …
you’re the best boss, the best friend, and somehow still everyone’s favorite person in every room. You show up for us every single day without hesitation, and we are so lucky to call you ours.
Thank you for everything you do for our family, for your strength, your love, and the way you hold us all together (and for pretending you “don’t care” what’s for dinner… only to have very strong opinions 😂).
We love you more than you’ll ever know. Cheers to you today and always 🥂🤍
Everyone please go wish this man a jolly good day for his day of birth 🎉
He likes pizza, tomahawks and ceviche if you wanna get him anything 😂
Happy St. Patrick’s Day from our little 10 month leprechaun and good luck charm 🍀
10 months with our smiley, busy, growing boy 🤍
Rocco is officially on the move… and we are not ready 😅
He’s starting to take steps (send help!!!), and if he’s anything like his sister, we’re about to have a full-on walker at 10 months.
His current obsessions:
✨ The dishwasher door opening (thrilling, apparently)
✨ Sneaking into the dog food + water station the second the gate opens
✨ Splashing in water like it’s his full-time job
He LOVES watermelon 🍉 (which… we need summer to hurry up because these prices are wild 😅)
We’re also in the process of weaning from breastfeeding, with the goal of being done by 11 months 🤍 such a bittersweet transition.
I truly cannot believe this is the second-to-last milestone post.
Time is flying in a way I wasn’t prepared for.
Rocco, you are the happiest, sweetest, most handsome little boy. Your smile lights up everything, and we are so in love with you.
Double digits. Almost one. 🥹
9 Months with Rocco 🤍
How are we already here… nine months with our sweet boy.
You’re not a tiny baby anymore you’re officially in your busy little explorer era. Always moving, always curious, always trying to keep up with everything going on around you.
Your personality is starting to shine so big lately. You laugh with your whole body, clap when you’re excited, and look so proud of yourself every time you figure something new out.
You’re watching your sister like she’s the coolest person in the world.
Some days I feel like I blink and you’ve grown overnight. The baby rolls, the cuddles, the sleepy snuggles, I’m holding onto every second because I know how fast this season goes.
9 months of loving you.9 months of watching our family grow in the best way.9 months of you, our little Rocco 🤍
Our forever Valentines 💌❤️
Watching these two love each other is the sweetest thing in the world. The way she looks at him. The way he lights up just seeing her. It’s pure. It’s innocent. It’s everything.
Stella, my little sweetheart in red, the best big sister.
Rocco, our happy little lover boy with that gummy grin that melts me every single time.
Valentine’s Day looks a little different when you’re parents… it’s louder, messier, and way more magical. No fancy dinners needed. Just heart balloons, tiny toes, big giggles, and a whole lot of love filling this house.
These two are our whole heart walking around outside our body. ❤️
Happy Valentine’s Day from our little love bugs to yours 💘✨
Bahamas Pt. 1 🤍
We came for a quick getaway.
We left with core memories.
Swimming with pigs.
Holding my babies on the beach.
Watching my parents finally become Mr. & Mrs. after 30 years together.
Some trips change you a little.
This was one of them.
8 Months with Our Little Boy 🩵 ( 2 weeks late)
Eight months with our little boy and he is on the MOVE 🥹
He’s crawling everywhere, pulling himself up on everything, clapping, and he started standing by himself in the Bahamas, no hands, no help. And of course my heart exploded because that’s the exact same time Stella started standing on her own too. Same timing. Same magic.
He says “dada” nonstop (of course 🙄😂) and yep… his first word was dada, just like Stella’s first word was dada too. These kids really said dad first, always 😅
He’s got four teeth coming in (two on top, two on the bottom), and this boy EATS. Loves everything… except tart fruits. Total meat lover.
And then the moment that got me, I caught him signing “milk” and “all done.” Eight months old and already showing us how smart he is. Absolute smarty pants 🩵
Watching you grow feels like time is sprinting while I beg it to slow down. Eight months of you has been the greatest gift.
