Thanksgiving and High School Reunion





We had a fantastic Thanksgiving. We have a lot to be thankful for and are so happy with our brand new addition to the family. Zoe ate the turkey,stuffing,cranberry and all the fixings with gusto. Although, she has slowed down considerably. Jordyn and I went to the Macy's parade in the morning (even with the rain). Our cousin Rob let us come to his apartment, so we had a wonderful view. Zoe and Jordyn had a great time with their cousins and Uncle Jon and Aunt Lisa. We saw a lot of friends over the break but one of the highlights was my 20th High School reunion. I see a lot of people still but it always fun when you look around you at a bar and realize 5 of you were in nursery school together. The funny thing is even though I'm the mother of two, I still feel like I'm in high school at times. Another wonderful moment was when an old friend of mine told me he is adopting from Guatemala. I wish him all the best!! I know everyone always wants pictures of the children but I did post some from our fun evening.

1st Broadway Show





It was such a pleasure today to take my daughter to her first Broadway show. I hope this is one of many. We went with another one of my dear friends and her daughter. The girls were beyond excellent!! The show went from 1:30 until a little after 4- they were so well behaved, not one complaint. I haven't seen a show in a while and it was so much fun. We saw Beauty and the Beast. I know I was a little sarcastic about Donny Osmand but I have to say he played a fabulous Gaston. He also looks great!! I had flashbacks of him from the show with Marie. The sets and costumes were also unbelievable. If anyone comes to NYC in the near future I definitely recommend seeing this show.

Quite an afternoon!




I decided to bring the girls straight home today. We have a pretty exciting weekend ( and week) ahead of us. Zoe is teething and pretty miserable. I posted the picture of her knawing on my foot. Jordyn is so tired at the end of the day- she decided to go to sleep on the floor herself ( she is now in her bed). Everybody has really been transitioning very well. Zoe seems to love her daycare and looks like she is having fun. I am taking Jordyn for her big sister treat on Sunday- we are gojng to see Beauty and the Beast on Broadway. I think I may be more excited than she is to see this. Jordyn is actually very excited to bring one of her best friends to her gymnastics class tomorrow. She has been talking about it all week. Apparently, her friend wins out over Belle. I just can't wait to see Donny Osmand!
