Circus

We took Katie to the circus this week. She really enjoyed the clowns, ponies and the lady on the trapeze.  We had great seats so she could see everything close up.  She also had a blast "walking like a dinosaur" before hand with her dad! 

Little Girl

Our baby no longer looks like a baby.  She now looks and acts like a little girl.  We are so proud as we watch her grow but a little part of me is sad to see her growing so fast.  

Here are some recent pictures.  

Here are our "favorite friends" Sophia and Lucas at a recent wedding.

Crazy NYC weather

We have had some interesting weather lately. One day it was beautiful and sunny enough to enjoy the park with ice cream and the next we were able to break back out our snowman shirt and play in the snow...in March!

Here are a few pics of Katie...she is growing so fast and so much fun to hang out with now. 

 Wonder where all that ice cream goes :)

But no matter what kind of weather, it is always a good day for yogurt!

TWO!

Our sweet Katie turned 2 last week.  We are so proud of her and the little girl she is becoming. We personally (like all parents) think she is a genius:)  She can sing a variety of songs, can count to 20, excluding 15, and have hysterical conversations with us.  Tom is especially proud because she is telling her own version of jokes, such as "The ball went to kitchen and get snack." She then laughs at herself and her little joke.  She will say it over and over!  She is such fun and we love spending time with her!

Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!

We had a great Yo Gabba Gabba themed party for her.  Here are some pictures from the party. She had a great time playing with her friends.

Snow Day!

Today we got the gift of a snow day! It is only the 9th time since 1978 that NYC schools have been closed and we have gotten A LOT of snow lately!  In Queens, we got about 19 inches of snow last night...that is on top of the other 20 inches we had this month. We went out this afternoon to "help" dad dig out the car.  Here are some pictures.
