Car Seat Fun

Poor Leah spends soooo much time in this evil contraption. She is wearing one of my favorite outfits. Cute fleeced lined jeans, pink fleece, with an adorable pink striped Rugby sweater and lets not forget her cute matching hat.


Changing Time, Nap Time

I think that no matter how upset Leah is, if you undress her, she is all smiles again. Silly girl.


Sometimes I need naps too.

Leah's Mini-Vacation continued...

It was more of mini vacation but it was her first outing outside of New York. :D

First stop was a brewery. Where Matt and George got themselves beer. Next stop was downtown Easton, Pennsylvania where we visited the Crayola Store and Pez store. Downtown Easton has had quite a revival over the last ten years or so. I don't remember it being so nice and family oriented.

Next we went and checked into the Hampton Inn in Allentown, Pennsylvania. We unpacked and washed up. It was a cute room. Next we were off to Blatt's Dinner Theater in Kutztown, Pennsylvania. There were saw a Kutztown Country Christmas. They served appetizers, dinner and dessert. It was all you can eat and absolutely delicious. Turkey, ham, turkey filling, wonderful sweet dry corn and green beans. A bunch of other things. Tons of coffee.

Then they entertained us with lil music skits while we were eating. The show itself was very original and wonderfully performed.

I was very impressed. It is definitely something I would do again.

Leah was pretty good through out. She slept straight through dinner but woke up as the show started so I spent the first half with her standing in the back of the theater and Ruth stayed with her during the second half of the show. Afterwards everyone was all like "I am so surprised she was so quiet."

Yeah well, thats Leah. Well behaved and what not. Well as well behaved as three month can be :P

Afterwards we headed back to the hotel where I realized that I'd left my digital camera back at the theater. Yeah, I know. Typical of me. So I called them and they said I could come get it the next day.

On Sunday we checked out and went out to the Vanity Fair outlet. It was okay. Though I have to agree with Ruth. The Tanger outlets are way better. Even the Premium Outlets in Tannersville are better. But shopping is shopping and I love it no matter where I am.

We left there and then went to get my camera. We were going to visit a winery but thanks to my leaving the camera, part of the trip had to be cut out. Last stop was this creamery/bakery place. Got some pie, chocolate and really good ice cream.

All in all it was a nice weekend. Saturday's weather wasn't great but it really got nice out on Sunday. I would totally do it again. :D

Leah was so good in the car.

I wanted to note that we were completely stopped and she wasn't all the way into the seat when this photo was taken. Her straps were tightened properly after it was taken.

Leah's First Mini-Vacation

Ruth and George were awesome enough to take us away for the weekend. Off to Pennsylvania we went :D Did a bunch of stuff, like going to a dinner theater, visiting lil breweries in Easton and shopping :D

I will write more on this all tomorrow.

Just wanted to say THANK YOU...I had tons of fun and it was nice, very nice to be away from work.

Leah is up, not sleeping at all tonight. Must have been the weekend away.

Did I mention Leah is one of the best behaved babies I have ever been around? I can't believe how amazing she was all weekend.

These are a few pictures of us in the Crayola Store at the Crayola Factory. Its in Easton, Pennsylvania. Notice the VERY pretty, and coordinated outfit she is wearing. I love the Children's Place.

Our Princess Leah

She has so many cute outfits. This is one of the ones she got from George's former co-workers.

A lil princess is exactly what she is, and I think she is beginning to know it too.



Today Daddy and Leah were hanging out for a little while. Aren't they so cute together? Absolutely beautiful.

Leah has her moments during the day when she seems just utterly bored with me.

My friends sneak in for a sec

Leah spends a lot of time at my job. The quintestential New Yorker cannot be without their Starbucsk :P

Here are two of my co-workers, Kitti (Shirley) and Amanda. Kitti is expecting her baby in mid-December. And I can't wait till Delilah is finally here.

Visiting lil Aidan

Went to visit Jodi today and meet her lil Aidan for the first time. Its nuts when I see a baby that small and then look at Leah. I can barely believe my eyes when I see how big she is getting.

Aidan is a very cute baby. They say he looks like his dad. I say I am the worst judge when it comes to seeing who a baby looks like. Everyone tells me Leah looks like me and I don't see it.

His big brother Jonathan seems to enjoy the fact he now has a little brother. Pretty much a good happy family, which is always nice to see.

Here is Aidan.



And here are Autumn (Jamie's daughter) and Leah with Lois. (I am not sure what the two of them are being distracted by but they no interest in the camera.)

Heh...men...

Ruth sent me pictures of Leah, from yesterday when she was over at their house. It was Matt's responsibility to dress Leah up in her costume. They put her costume on backwards! Hee hee.

Exhibit A


Exhibit B


She looks like one of those clown dolls. As a matter of fact, Matt's great-grandmother Bernice has a few of them.
