Christmas in Iowa!

We LOVE family!

Little Man in the Big City!

Well, I think Felix is liking his time in NYC!

He gets a kick out of operating the elevator (including pushing the bright red emergency button twice so far, that they strategically place at his eye level), enjoys the sounds and lights in the subway, is entranced by the views from our windows at home, and loves the parks--especially the water features!

Felix and Manny, 26th floor buddies!

He's made some new friends too, like Manny, Graham, and Penelope.

Felix and Graham spinning in circles! Cuties :-)

He's also enjoying nursery, with minimal parting tears (well, in the two weeks he's gone so far!).

Oh, and like any true NYC kid, he loooves FAO Schwarz!

Love this pic--like father, like son. :-)

Attack of the Baby Toys

During the last six weeks Felix inherited, acquired or borrowed an alarming number of baby toys and paraphanelia that are apparently beginning to multiply at night, slowly taking over our small apartment's diminishing square footage and creating a sort of micro-Disneyland for one in our living room.


















Of course Brian has recently had some fun with one of his favorite toys--the family convertible. Since 2004 our poor car has suffered at the hands of loose gravel, chipping paint, several parking lot door dings and two large trucks so we decided to treat our car, named Parker, to a new coat for Spring. This time we went back to the original factory color--Toyota 040 Super White!
