Make Believe

Image
Today was a big day because it was the Music Class Valentine's exchange. So many people were there. For the music portion it was very crowded...we were shoulder to shoulder in the primary room for music class and the exchange in the church basement was fun and pure chaos. A friend captured these pictures at music class. Love my girls! Emi and her twins. One is in her "front pack" (aka her sweater) and the other is in the stroller. She was taking them to the pediatrician in her imaginative play today. Emi's favorite game right now is rental car (can you tell we live in NYC?) and we are always bringing a baby or two along with us in our make believe travels. Little Macy Moo.

Summer

Image
Today felt so warm! It was 34 degrees and felt like summer! Or at least spring? It was sooo refreshing after a freezing weekend. I'm hoping this means we've turned a leaf after today's weather!  I get the cutest view while I push my stroller around NYC.

The Great Gatsby

Image
For Broadway week, Marty and I got tickets to Gatsby! Acting? Amazing. Story? Amazing (but sad). Singing? Amazing. Production value? Amazing. Music? Forgettable.  Marty and I collectively rated it a 6.5/10.

3 Legged Stroller

Image
Today as I was getting off the bus, a wheel popped off our stroller. It was freeeezzzinnnggg* and I tried to quickly put the wheel back on but no such luck, so Emi and I walked and our little-stroller-that-could balanced just fine with Macy's car seat on it as we made our way home. When we got home, Marty was able to get the wheel on very easily which was great. Our stroller is the equivalent of our car. I use this thing all. the. time. I'm glad it was an easy fix! Go little stroller, go! Emi and Dad watching the Super Bowl. An Olympic ad with Golden in the background came on, and Emi's jaw literally dropped. She couldn't believe it! haha. *The NY Post: "Temperatures hit 3 degrees on Sunday, with bitter wind chills dragging the real feel temperatures to 14 degrees below zero." Yes, actual freezing!

Imagination

Image
Emi's alarm clock aka "mella" turns colors to indicate certain things--red for sleep, yellow for awake but playing in her room by herself, and green for when she can come into mom and dad's room. Emi came to get me when mella turned green today to play with her. When I came in her room, she had built this while mella was yellow. Isn't it pretty amazing?! This girl eats, breathes, and lives imaginative play. She is always creating and imagining.

13 Going on 30

Image
Nika's 13 going on 30 birthday party! We were supposed to dress up in our best flirty 2004 attire. I tried finding an outfit off Amazon with little success...so I ended up just looking like myself! I did put in earrings, and Marty was shocked. haha. It's been years!  We went to Bad Roman and the vibe was so fun. When we walked out from dinner it was snowing! It felt very magical!

Food

Why I love NYC:  Today we popped into William Greenburg to grab 2 mini black and white cookies on our way home from art class. Marty and I (and Macy) went to 7th Street Burger for lunch after we dropped Emi off at preschool. I think their burger may just be as good as In n Out (although I do prefer In n Out's fries).  It's so fun to get to pop into places! I love it.
