Although he looks as though he is kissing me . . he is not. He is biting me. So next step . . . .

Getting ready for the holidays

The holiday's are kicking in to high gear. We went to a Christmas party on Saturday. We went to a birthday party on Sunday. Today we walked around our neighborhood to see all the Christmas displays. Who knows . . . .the spirit may actually move me to head over to Macy's tomorrow. But then again . . . maybe not.

In our winter gear. Heading out.His new found love. The toy train display.
A movie of his train love

The Mom. The Finn

Shortly after this picture he fell into this tree and scratched his face. It was all fun and games until that moment.

This lovely winter display is right in front of a Thai restraunt next to our apartment. Cause when you think Christmas . . .you think Thai food.
Aaaaaaand there's the scratch from falling in to the tree. Ahhhh. Christmas memories.

Sunday we were at Miss Charia's 2nd b-day.

I don't think I could explain the joy he had about the balloons.
And the blowey thing
But mostly the balloons Birthday Girl!Balloons. Blowey whistle things. AND MARKERS! = best party ever!

And Saturday we headed out to New Jersey to Jodi and Rich's new place for their holiday party.

By all means . . . refuse to look at the camera when I have you dressed super cute!

Yo Gabba Gabba trance.
Nice fish face.

Busy Day

We had a VERY busy day on Sunday. I've been working a lot so Finn and I spent the morning just playing and being buddiesAnd he fed me oranges

We went down to Soho to the Children's Art Museum. We went back in August - but it went a little better this time. Four months older made a big difference.

My new favorite picture. He was VERY excited about the ball pit.

The "drawing wall". I don't think he liked the other kid's "art"

He got to paint. Last time he ate the paint. This time he painted.

His favorite part of the art museum was when he got to. . . .wash his hands.

Then I took him over to see the show I'm working on right now called Groovaloo. I slipped in the back of the mezzanine with him. I figured he would last maybe 15 minutes or so. Once again, like the circus he LOVED LOVED LOVED it. He was dancing and laughing and grinning ear to ear. I couldn't take pictures during their show so I have a clip from their website

Waiting for the show to start.

Then we walked over to XR Bar to hang out with baby Sam (my god son - and yes he did spit up on my shoulder)

Finn was thrilled he got to play with Thea, who is just the sweetest dog. Babies, dogs, friends. That's my kinda bar!!!!

Need I say more?

the joys of a toddler

Dinner with his own piano player

Finn drinks out of Joey's bowl

Oy. This is the new thing.
