THAT FACE?

What's Up Doc?

Princess A will probably kill me for posting this when she is older but I want to know what this face means. She just started doing it and this is not the best picture of it but it is the only proof I have of it’s existence.

She wriggles up her nose like a rabbit and then squints her eyes. There is no single catalyst for this face it just happens at random. I am sure it means something but what?

Stay Glamorous,

The High Line

The Meat Packing District

Last week Grandpa H babysat so we could have a date night. We decided to go to the High Line Park which is an elevated public park walkway in Manhattan that was converted from old railroad tracks. We decided to take the entrance in the Meat Packing District.

This decision had nothing to do with the fact that the entrance is next to a Diane von Furstenberg store.

Old Train Tracks

The High Line is an amazing park and I really suggest it if you are visiting New York City. They kept the old train tracks which I think is really cool. The views of the city are worth the trip. I felt like I was in an urban tree house.

We decided to get a refreshment in the middle of our walk.

Me

I forgot my camera lens for closeup pictures so I was unable to get a good shot of the Husband and I. Luckily, The Husband took this cute picture of me with his phone.

We had an amazing date night and it was nice to take such a long walk together minus dog and baby.

What do you like to do on your date nights?

We went to Grandma and Grandpa H’s house for the first night of Passover! And you want to know what one of the best parts of their house is?They have big and awesome toys!I know Princess A… the toy house is so cool!I just love this picture because you can see how big and gorgeous Princess A’s eyelashes are!They also have a toy chest big enough for Princess A to crawl in!Our apartment is small so we don’t have baby gates so Princess A thinks Grandma and Grandpa’s gates are toys.Here she is going through the door of her house.Princess A played really hard and then stayed up 2 hours past her bedtime which if you know how much she needs her beauty sleep is quite an accomplishment! Usually she falls asleep mid bite during dinner if you try to keep her up.Sorry Princess A, we can’t bring this toy home with us. We live in an apartment and don’t have room for a toy house.

MOVES LIKE JAGGER

Here’s Princess A playing with one of her best baby friends Lila. Everything looks calm here but this party was wild. I felt like I was hanging with the Rolling Stones and the next day I had the biggest hangover of my life and I didn’t even drink at the birthday party. My friend NiCole runs her own play group and brought over tons of toys… including a tunnel. We just put the toys on the ground and let the kids have at it. Here is my friend NiCole giving out more fun toys. I wish I had a better picture of her but it was so hard to get good shots at the party because the kids were moving around so much!Princess A mostly cuddled with her new bear. I am so glad I had tons of baby finger food at the party because Princess A got hungry after all the playing.The party got even crazier so stay tuned for more pictures of babies partying hard!

Stay Glamorous,

GLAM ICE CREAM MAN

shannonsutherland —  March 21, 2012 — 11 Comments

Last week I posted about this outfit and said I was upset I couldn’t find anyone to take a picture of it. My mom brain must have spaced because I did have someone to take a picture of me. My local ice cream truck man. Here is Freckles looking at me with sad puppy dog eyes because he wants some ice cream too.The ice cream truck man in my neighborhood is the best ever. I should know his name but I don’t… I am too distracted by his style and ice cream! When I was a new mom I would walk by him and he always told me I looked fabulous even though I really did not. I think he could sense I was having a hard time. He always wears something glam even though he is just serving ice cream and people would by from him anyway. I took this picture of him because I love his Chanel suspenders which he swears are real. Now my question is if he can afford Chanel suspenders why is he selling ice cream from a truck?

Stay Glamorous,

Thanks Katie for writing about The Husband Aaron’s new blog!

Princess A is very busy all the time. I am not exactly sure what she is busy with but she is BUSY. She likes to climb up this incline in gym class.Then she stands still for a second because she is proud of herself.Then she flops down and slithers down the incline on her belly. She does this over and over for about 20 minutes or until she is exhausted. Then she finds a fun toy and is happy for a bit.Then she gets restless and decides she wants to do some more baby workouts and surveys the room. Or maybe she is judging the other babies because they don’t like to go up and down an incline. Who knows? But whatever she is thinking she is definitely “Daddy’s Busy Bee”
