The Toilet Monster

Having brothers that live upstairs has its advantages...

Last night we put a toilet monster in their bathroom. We tried to hang around until one of them found it but it was getting late. About 10 minutes after we left we got a call from Steven asking us if we were trying to give him a HEART ATTACK!

Ivan decided to triple lock our door... we are sure payback is coming!

Locks of Love

Tracey's sister, Ally chopped 18 inches last week! I haven't had that much hair since 1984!!

I hope someone at Locks of Love is looking for an 18 inch blond braid...

(and look at that hot broad holding the hair!!)

Brunch at Donna and Noam's

Today we took a drive out to NJ with Jaime, Rachel & Jay to go see the Kritzer Fam.  Adam took a bad fall that morning, but pulled himself together to greet us when we arrived.  We had some bagels, crem brulee french toast (YUM!!!) and some other goodies while Adam enjoyed his avocado on bread with some cheerios and yogurt.   We had a great visit and promised we would try and do it again soon.  

Snowy NYC

Its a good thing everyone has those big SUV's in NYC - with this crazy weather - how else could they get around!?!?

Steven's Lunar Wipeout

Steven was unable to contain his excitement over the lunar eclipse and in the mayhem took a bad spill. Thankfully he and his sunflower seeds are O.K. and managed to make it through the rest of the eclipse, incident free!

Golf in February

Today was another 60 degree day in NYC.  We took advantage and strolled over to Chelsea Piers and of course Chelsea Market.  Ivan is cooking up some spicy meatballs for dinner!  YUM.

  

Working on our stroke at chelsea piers ... and since we were right there...

Valentines Day - 2008

We had a nice, in-house Valentines Day this year. Ivan, my amazing, handsome and thoughtful husband arranged a candle light lobster feast for us. I walked in from the gym to a darkened apartment with the meal ready to go - it was de-lish! We slammed the crustaceans, some homemade potato soup Ivan made and boozed hard with lemonade. Afterwards Ivan gave me some long-stems and hydrangea's (that croaked in like 20 minutes) and had a wild night of TV watching (Lost, which sucks and Idol). Anyway, we had a nice night, and Ivan is just the bestest!

This past week we took a couple days off and went to FL. It was very relaxing. We had time to visit Nan and spend a few days playing golf and hanging by the pool. We left 80 degree weather and came back to 12. What a SHOCK! It was a great trip and now we are starting to plan for the big journey ahead of us.

I have to share some good ol' Nan pictures. When we were in FL Ivan pointed the camera at Nan and she instantly did her original pose. Of course this wasn't her first time and I knew I've seen that pose before, so I went back to some old pictures and sure enough found another one. I think these pictures are 3 years apart...good ol' Nan - you gotta love her!!!

Baby News

So I am now 6 months pregnant. I am growing and feel big... I've been told that I am only going to get much MUCH bigger, SCARY! I first felt the little guy kick on January 13th. It felt like a fish hitting up against the side of the fishbowl. I am just starting to get use to it. Ivan felt him kick for the first time January 31st. He gets so excited and talks to my belly... it's really cute! Well here are some pictures of me at 4, 5 and 6 months... 3 1/2 more to go!
