Slide Show

Weekend Recap - Monday in NY

Eleven degrees in NY. Miserable. Luckily the Litte Einsteins are working their magic and keeping Baker occupied.

Kevin and I had a date night this weekend. We had the best time, although I still have blisters on my feet because I wore cute shoes and as usual, we walked a lot. We started at Peasant. I love this place - they don't have a sign and they are located in a cellar. (A NY version of Hugo's...what's not to love...) We stopped at Public next. Great bar area - good people watching. It looked like a popular place to be so of course, we loved that. Then we worked our way home stopping by Raul's and finally, Camaje. Raul's is cute and local. Not sure I would go back, but I'm glad we went. We sat next to two gorgeous sisters who were in town for fashion week. They loved my wedding ring (thank you Becca.) By the time we got to Camaje my feet were dying and it had started to rain. Thankfully, the place is right around the corner from our apartment.

We took Baker to the American Museum of Natural History on Saturday. As you might have guessed, he LOVED the dinosaurs. I'll post photos later today - I've tried but I can't get the slide show to work. I'm going to move on before I stomp on my computer.

It think my angst is contagious. Now Baker is getting restless... I need to stop blogging and read "Thomas" before my two year old starts acting like a two year old.

Pizza Box

Under any other circumstance, a collection of hodge podge condiments/spices like this would freak me out. In some weird way, they add to the charm of The Pizza Box located directly across the street from our apartment.

Cute Coffee Shop in Soho

It's official! I miss our dogs terribly.
If you can see the window signage, you'll notice that the coffee shop is named, "Olive's".
If you have a direct line to St. Valentine, please tell him that I really want a new digital camera. If not this holiday, then Mother's Day will suffice. Or Halloween. Or Christmas.

Union Square

Baker and I took the subway to Union Square today. It's only the second time we've taken the train by ourselves. We definitely like it better when daddy is there to help navigate the stroller/stairs/etc. But it's good to know we can manage...

Work Ethic

While dressed in his jammies ready for bed...
Baker: "Bye Daddy."
Daddy: "Bye Baker. Where are you going?"
Baker: "My office."

We're Back in NYC - GO GIANTS!

We're back in New York for a couple of weeks. We flew in Sunday and enjoyed a beautiful sunny day. After lunch we took Baker to Washington Square Park.
Highlight of the day -- watching the Giants win the Super Bowl!
