We’ve discovered a new playground. It’s big, has swings, a sprinkler, a sandbox with a play set for big kids and little ones and it’s under trees so there’s a lot of shade. The best part is that it’s a five minute walk from us (and that’s if I am not walking very fast). [...]

After lunch Emma asked if she could have some grapes as a snack. I was thrilled because usually I have to force her to eat them. Let me also say that the grapes were “purple” (i.e. red) which is why we bought them in the first place. Anyway, I put some grapes in a bowl [...]

This was taken at the Madison Squar Park this afternoon.
. We haven’t been to any of these shows until today and I have to say that we were a bit disappointed. There were a lot of people but the show itself wasn’t that interesting. When we got to the park there were two people [...]

I took a short video of our time at the park today. It was a little chilly this morning and I was surprised that the sprinklers were on at the park. Of course the girls didn’t care one bit that wasn’t very warm and went right for the water. The sun did come out after [...]

Eva is at the great age when she mimicks everything that we do, especially Emma. I call her my monkey and she even responds to that name. She thinks it’s pretty funny when I call her that. Emma is the center of Eva’s little world. She wants to be just like Emma. She wants to [...]

It’s another Wednesday and another music class for the girls. I really like this class and I think the girls enjoy it a lot too. Every class they learn a new letter of the alphabet and read a different story. The kids also are free to run around and dance and express themselves pretty much [...]

I love Sundays. It’s the one day a week that we do something as a family. Saturdays are usually for getting stuff done that needs to get done, around the apartment, etc. Sundays are for doing fun things. We try to have all of our meals together and usually go for a long walk. Also [...]
