Merry Christmas!!!

Bella made cookies today and Luciano hung out on Mommy.

Luciano's first casting call

I can't believe I forgot to bring my camera to document Luciano's first open casting call.  It is probably a good thing as I was a nervous wreck putting him up against the pros with their professional head shots and tear sheets.  Luckily P-Nut was there to help me out and take a few snaps.  He was labeled "easy" and smiled on cue.  Here he is with the baby wrangler.

Chris paints Bella's nails

This is too funny.  And now I am overhearing him say that Bella can't wear lipstick AND nail polish at the same time.  Oh, Daddy.

  

Bella laughing is fun

The day at Disney

3 rides on Dumbo, 2 trips around the carousel, 1 teacup spin, up and down on a rocket ship, 1 princess coronation and a Christmas parade.  Not a bad day at Disney.

Daddy and Bella at the Princess coronation.

This time we only waited on line for a half hour before Bella screamed out she had to go potty, right before we were to meet Fawn.  Bella was star-struck and too shy to stand with Tinkerbell, this was as close as she got.  Luciano seemed to be interested at this point.

That's Fawn.

Luciano got a little bored on the fairy line.

Christmas Brunch at Carolyn's

I can already hear laughing from the East Coast.  Yes, we dressed alike to go to a Christmas brunch today at our friend Carolyn's house.

Meeting Santa

We waited outside Santa's LA house for about an hour. Bella was dressed in her best princess wear and Luciano took a cat nap. But when we got inside...

Bella had to go potty and then didn't want to go near the man with the red suit. Good thing Daddy was there to tell Santa what she wanted.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Luciano and Bennett

The outtakesLuciano may be smaller but he takes Bennett out of this photo shoot. Last time these guys got together Luciano couldn't even sit.

Bella is OK

Bella would like you to know that she is OK.  The Beverly Hills plastic surgeon did a great job patching her lip back together.  You can't even tell that she has stitches.  She was a brave trooper.
