Kristian and Taylor adventures

Taylor, Kristian and Cory are currently in a car traveling around the outskirts of NYC! They are in New Jersey right now! Bee and I had Felix and Bryna over this afternoon!

Good Morning Everyone! Our Guest room has been working out! Hardest part is getting down from the ladder in the morning!

Bee's first dinosaur experience!

Big Cat!

Fishies!

By chance Cory and Kristian stumbled upon a grand opening party for "Design within Reach" while walking in SoHo. Cory got to hang out in his dream chair. A Eames Lounge Chair that is. It is his dream chair because it costs $4800. He loves this chair!
Lombardi's pizza is a must when you come to visit NYC! The pizza was amazing and it is fun going to Rice to Riches which is across the street from Lombardi's.

Walking through Little Italy.

I wanted to show Kristian and Taylor Prospect Park during the off lease hours in the morning. Taylor knows a lot about dogs and the different breeds. My current favorite are the minigoldendoodles! Kristian and Taylor have 5 (6 if they keep the latest dog they took in) dogs and 4 cats!

Shopping for kitties at the 5th Ave Street Festival!

Sushi Break!

Video chatting with Mimi and Papa! Bee was having a lot of fun playing with Kristian!

She was using him as her own personal toy holder!

Walking in mommy's new shoes! Bee's current favorite game!

I will have more Kristian and Taylor pictures but for now here are some pics of Felix and Bee from earlier this week! Kristian and Taylor left early this morning to take a road trip to Rhode Island! They will return tomorrow night!

Bee and Felix take a break from the playground for a banana snack.

What's so funny FELIX AND BEE? Bee was tossing up the bark! When she gets to laughing she covers her mouth with her hands.

Mama Bryna and Felix!

Bee was a show stopper. The tourists loved stopping to take pics of Bee.

Bee likes to make friends!

I love my big girl!

Guess who's here!

Kristian and Taylor arrived from California tonight! They will be staying with us for a week while they explore New York and the East Coast! We plan on exploring the Natural History Museum with them tomorrow!

Mommy Day 2010

I hope all the mothers had a very special mother's day! I had a lovely day! It was my 2nd matching mother's day! I used vintage patterns to make Bee and my dresses. Bee's was pretty easy but I had trouble with mine. I didn't think I was going to fit into the 1960's sizes so I tried to enlarge the pattern. Turned out I just made more work for me because I made it too big. I ended up reversing the bodice too. It was my first attempt at making a dress for myself. I learned alot! One reason I love to sew is because it helps me feel closer to my mom who was an amazing seemstress! I also made matching hair clips for me and Bee and a bowtie for Cory!

The three of us after church.

I love using vintage pattners but they can be very frustrating! Could someone please tell me how their waist lines were so small. My waist measurement is literally off the chart!

We went to Jennifer, Mike and baby Oscars house for a Mother's day celebration! Mike and Scott are coloring with the kids!

Edgar likes to smile for the camera!

Feeding the kids is a messy job!

Bee flushing her first poo poo in the potty!!!

Adventure Bee and I took a walk and ran into a film set a few blocks from our house. They were filming "Bored to Death" and we got to see the two main actors! They did a shot that took place in front of our favorite neighborhood pizza place! This picture is of Bee on the playground across the street from the pizza place. It is the playground that belongs to the school P.S. 321.


P.S. 321 is the elementary school that we are zoned for. We are super excited because it one of the best publice schools in NYC! So, I like to say...P.S. 321 Here we come!

Last Thursday our mom's group got together in the park to celebrate the upcoming Mother's Day! We tried to have all the kids stay in one place to take a picture but this is how that idea turned out! We did take a mommy/baby picture but I don't have it yet!
Bee looks like she is off to school! Bee loves to carry her backpack! She does not let me carry it for her. When we are getting ready to leave the house I tell her to pack her bag and she does! Often I have to tell her to leave a few things at home as she wants to take all her babies! She is a good listener!
This is Bee in our hallway. Since we live on the 3rd floor we like to still carry Bee down the stairs, so she is waiting for me to pick her up! She loves to wear sunglasses!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day!

Stop and Smell the Lilacs

Bee loves to smell pretty flowers! These lilacs at the BBG smelled amazing!

Happiest Toddler on the Block?

Bee picked this book of the shelf to read! The Happiest Toddler on the Block! She is definitely a happy girl!

In the morning from 7-9am Prospect Park turns into the biggest dog park! Bee loves to go watch the doggies! She loves it when she can throw a ball for them! We have made friends with Sarah who lives above us and she has two little doggies. Finn (pomeranian) and Tulip (chihuahua). Bee loves to walk Finn! Thanks Sarah for sharing your cute little doggies with us!
