new york part II

Thursday, February 16

It was so wonderful getting to meet up with a few fine ladies during the weekend for brunch: Jen, Julie, Natalie, and the girls from Ruche. As lovely as they are on the Internets, they're even better in person. Everett doesn't just let anyone hold him. He loved those girls as much as I did.
I'm typically not fancy enough for brunch. And this pretty little cafe in the west village was no exception. Both the bebe and the stroller {that happened to have a real knack for bumping into things it shouldn't} added a nice touch to my dwindling level of grace and sophistication. Nat, I will forever love you for multiplying the baby and stroller count by two in that little cafe. The beautiful brunching Europeans with their un-brushed hair and black clothes LOVED us. Loved you guys.

Thanks for sharing your NY trip! Loved hearing about your adventures. I've heard NY isn't friendly to mama's and babies in strollers, but you didn't seem to have too hard of a time.

Sydney... I love your pictures. I would kill (ok, maybe not kill but probably close to jk) to have your photography skills. Did you take a class or is it just natural skill.
Teach me your ways. :)

Just wanted to say that your baby boy is adorable! I have a little girl, Sofia, who is about the same age as Everett. She was born on October 7. My sister introduced me to your blog and I LOVE it! I always find it fun to see how other first time moms are going about their days with their new little sidekick. Your photography is amazing. I'm looking to start my own blog as something to track my little girl's life. I can only hope for it to be as awesomely amazing as yours!

February 16, 2012 12:00 PM

Oh my gosh! Love the baby picture with the pacifier! So cute!

This makes me miss NY so much! I am dying to go on a trip there, my husband's never been!

When somebody writes post like this one above, I can only think: LIFE IS BEATIFUL! :)

I am so happy, that there are people all over the world, that are happy with the same things, brunching, celebrating with friends, visiting other cities, just BEING! :)

February 17, 2012 12:08 AM

i hate it when people are so snobby about babies and strollers. like who is the kind of person that would purposely run into you with a stroller?! i accidentally yelled at a man at the mall when i TRULY accidentally knicked his heel with the front wheel of my stroller in a verytinycramped space. i said i was sorry. he said i "needed a license to drive that thing." ewww. then i yelled, "well i WAS sorry, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A JERK ABOUT IT!"

ya. not graceful. at ALL. i feel ya.
