Well that was the fastest beach trip I can ever remember. As much as I love going on vacation, I also love returning to my own home and routines. I got so much rest on our trip to Bald Head (slept 8-9 hours and only worked out twice), so I’m feeling restored and ready to mom full-time again. Emerson has also gifted me with long naps and sleeping in until almost 8 since we’ve been home! With the exception of…
We’re having a blast on our beach trip to Bald Head! We’ve celebrated the birthdays of Matt and America; eaten lots of seafood, chips, and ice cream, and my favorite, slept nine hours a night. …
We’re back form a whirlwind weekend in North Carolina for my 10 year college reunion. We had a great time, but man is traveling with Emerson getting more difficult. It’s not the actual plane ride, but disrupting her schedule, keeping her safe when she just wants to sprint everywhere, and getting her to sleep when she is stimulated by everything around her! On to the fun stuff! We rented a beautiful lake house with all of my girlfriends and their…
Matt and I will celebrating our 5 year wedding anniversary in a few weeks, so we thought it was a good time for our first getaway without baby big girl Emerson in tow. My parents came up on Thursday, and after a day of playgrounds and a little sight seeing on Friday, Matt and I took off for the Willowemoc Valley in upstate New York. Despite my excitement for a break, I was sad saying goodbye. I don’t know how…
Our weekend in Southampton was filled with delicious food, laughter, cocktails, and fresh air. Ashley and Bo have been great friends to us since we moved to Brooklyn, so it was fun to do a getaway with them and the babes. Not only do they like food as much as we do, but they like to cook much more than we do, and did a lot of the dirty work:) Highlights of the weekend included… bay breezes, our personal bartender…
Heeyyy, I spent the week down in North Carolina, and I just couldn’t get over how green it is. And we had bright blue skies Monday-Saturday. Aside from two flight cancellations, a crying baby who didn’t want me on the phone and computer, and waiting all day to figure out my plans, the actual solo plane ride went well. We got on an 8:30pm flight, and Emerson stayed up until we landed at 10pm, and then finally feel asleep. Tuesday,…
These Mondays come and go so quickly! We had a low-key weekend with all of the usual routines. Friday, we had a fantastic dinner with friends at Celestine, a swanky and romantic restaurant with incredible views of the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges. We opted for the family style menu and all the food was wonderful. We had such a great time, and it was a treat to be out on the town. I think I woke up on the wrong…
We’re back from a lovely weekend on the North Fork of Long Island. I came down with a bad cold on Thursday, so I was feeling bad for most of the trip, but we still managed to have a great time. Even the smallest cold makes me appreciate how wonderful it feels to be healthy! We left Friday morning. Emerson was so excited to see her carseat that she practically jumped in it and then accidentally fell asleep on the…
It’s no secret that I’m travel obsessed. A lot of the fun for me is the planning process. It’s so fun, in fact, that I sometimes research and plan trips that I never actually take. I thought I’d share some of these ideas with you guys, in case anyone is looking for inspiration for summer (also, just thinking about warmer weather helps me get through winter!) Lake Tahoe I’ve always wanted to go to Lake Tahoe because of the combination…
