Lost and Found

We restarted our effort to purge some of our belongings from the attic this past weekend, and I came across this gem—my grandma's 70s avocado green tea kettle from Sweden. I'm definitely making room for this one on my stove.

Happy Four Months

Forgot to post this the other day. My little boy is already 4 months. I can't believe how fast he is growing up. Already flipping over from tummy to back and vice versa—and he got a tooth! Please make it stop. I want him to stay little a while longer. Cami was 7 months before she got her first one.

Working Hard for the Money

Finally Friday! Just another couple of hours of work until I pack up and start the weekend. After retuning from maternity leave, I have been working two days a week at the local office in suburbia. What a difference it made—a little bit of sanity in the crazy rat race.

Still chilling in my slippers at work. Had the best intention of changing into my heels once I walked into work this morning, but with no bosses in the office today, they are still on my feet. I love lazy Fridays. 

Breaking the old fashion rules and broke out my white jeans today. I so excited to fit back into them—suck it baby weight! 28 more days to go for my diet, and just 8 more pounds to go. I'm finally starting to feel like myself again.

Have to run to get kids a slew of birthday gifts after work. Despite the threat of another snowstorm for Monday, I can tell Spring is here—kids birthday party extravaganza. Saturday party at a gymnastics place and Sunday at a local farm. Oh joy!

Snow Fort

Making the most of the situation—building a snow fort and having a picnic. Tea and Oreos (Hot coco was rejected claiming illness as the reason they needed tea)

Hello Springtime

Beautiful start to the day—39F, clear blue sky and sunshine. And I heard a Cuckoo bird singing this morning. That must mean that Spring is just around the corner, right? Can't stand the two feet of snow still on the ground in our back yard. Crossing me fingers that some sunshine and rain will take care of that stat. Decided to brave it and left my winter boots at home today—new Vince Camuto leopard flats is making their premier trip to manhattan.

Beautiful Things

Pretty things from Nicole Porter Designs in Minnesota. 

Second Coming

Sitting around with a bottle of my favorite wine, waiting for the second round of heavy snow to start. After three storms in the past 10 days we have over a foot and a half of snow on the ground and 4 more inches are expected overnight.

Endless snow and winter. Sigh. When's spring going to come??

Thursday Treat

Having fun while mom's at work.

Reunited

First day back at work and a huge snowstorm hits the city. I keep on telling myself that this is not a sign! 

Wrapping up an immensely unproductive day and will head out before the snow overtakes Manhattan. 

Bored

This game is really no fun at all. Trying to entertain ourselves with some selfies.
