Remembering Nana

Nana died today.  Fortunately, I got to meet her yesterday when mommy and daddy took me to Florida for a very special visit.  It was my first airplane trip and I think they knew it was something special since I got priority boarding.


She gave me a smile that will last a lifetime.

I'll always remember some advice she gave us all when I was about your age, JJ.


We will all miss you, Nana!

Broadway Debut

Liana and I were tu-tu excited about our trial ballet classes and we laced up our slippers and headed up Broadway to check it out.

Is this what daddy means when he says he's going out to the bar?

I don't know why there is so much galloping in ballet. Did I come to the equestrian class by accident?


Thank you for a wonderful first class.

How Amusing!

We haven't seen our cousins Leah and Zachary in years, but this week they came to visit us from Maryland and while I was at school, you were able to hit the "rapids" at Victorian Gardens.   

Afterwards, we met Daisy for Carmine's and a photo.  (Even though it's family style, I sat out both the meal and the photo.)

Can't wait until we can see these cousins again!!

Rivalry, What Rivalry?

Mommy is a Yankees fan and daddy roots for the Red Sox. You wouldn't know it this week, when Dr. Y added a Bomber logo to my diaper at my one-month visit (where I weighed in at 11 pounds, 2 ounces and was 23 inches long).

We went to Scarsdale to celebrate Daisy turning six!

I think daddy had too many ice cream sandwiches because...

...he watched the Yanks-Sox game with me dressed in pinstripes.


Nothing like some good, clean family fun.


On Sunday we took the ferry to Staten Island and on the way, we saw Lady Liberty.


Then we walked (and rode) to the stadium with Suzy, Dan, Ari and Jonah...


...where we all root-root-rooted for the Yankees (the Staten Island farm team, that is).

And I ran the bases, including high-fiving the handsome players on the third base line.

Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner at Tiffany's

These blue boxes make me tired.  I think it's probably because I know how hard I'll need to work to ensure all the women in my life get ample supplies of them.  Don't worry, JJ, Liana and I already got a few (check out #3).

Mahopac-tion

We spent July 4th weekend in Mahopac, which allowed us to show off our brother to lots of people including cousin Daisy...

...and Grandma's neighbor Ellen, who supervised while we girls used our noodles.


Still, nothing beats holding Jonas ourselves.


You're not boring, I just get tired from being the center of attention.
