OH HOW TIME FLIES

moving
six years ago this week i was packing up my crappy, $500/month, no-window-in-my-bedroom apartment in williamsburg and moving in with my boyfriend, chris. we were headed to an amazing apartment in the hood (with an outdoor space!?!) that we ended up living in together for five years before ditching brooklyn for a house in the burbs.

good lord a lots changed in six years. 

side note: the apartment only looked this trashed because it was moving day. that being said, it was still a total piece of shit. don't miss those giant waterbugs one bit.

Nana and Papa Visit
dad and jean were able to come to new jersey for a quick visit this past weekend and it was so great to have them here. me and hazel picked them up from the airport friday morning and they stayed with us until they had to head back this am.

saturday was rainy, so most of the day was spent lounging around playing with toys and relaxing, but sunday we decided to adventure to World of Wings to see butterflies, fish, lizards and turtles. hazel loved it.

it was so great to have dad and jean here to see the house and spend some much needed QT. and naturally hazel was sad to see them go. she sure does love her nana and papa.

BIGGER AND BETTER TOYS

New toys
hazel's nana and papa got her the most amazing swing set for christmas, and the weather's finally been consistently nice enough that we had it assembled on sunday.

needless to say, she's obsessed. i love the idea of spending hours playing in the backyard this summer. this is what dream childhoods are made of.

OUT OF OFFICE

out of office
today is the last commute into the city for the next two weeks - i'm taking a short break in office life to straight up get shit done. doctor's appointments, contractor meetings, daycare tours - and hopefully a mani/pedi at some point. a girl's gotta have priorities.
