What a difference five days make.
On Monday we're witnessing quite the blizzard,
and on Saturday I'm running around the apartment flinging all the windows open
and breathing in Spring.
In between was a brutal round of teething
(fevers, sleepless nights, cranky days, lots of Netflix, and seemingly round-the-clock breastfeeding...hence no blogging!)
Today, the Kiddo has already taken off with his dad for his new favorite activity of the week, attending the Saturday Our Time workshop. Later his grandmother (T's mom) will be picking him up for lunch and a frolic in Central Park.
As soon as I take advantage of this blissful alone time to take a relaxing shower (you know, one that lasts for maybe longer than five minutes and involves actually shaving my legs and washing my hair!) I plan to take nature's cue and get outside, sit on a park bench in the sun for a while, and perhaps stop by the corner store on the way home to get some flowers for the apartment.
I hope that you have a beautiful, fun, and restorative weekend. What are your plans? I'd love to know :)

I used to get online while nursing Lola, but when she was older, like two or so, she would grab and bang the keyboard, so i didn't work so well.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling Spring!
We're getting beautiful spring weather here too! I'm loving every minute of it. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteenjoy your alone time! ahhh, to shower AND shave - now that's living.
ReplyDeleteI know, it is not crazy how this weather has been. we got 8 inches on Monday and this morning we were out and about with no jackets on. getting muddy, of course, because all the melting snow...
ReplyDeletelittle man is taking a long nap as we played all morning and I am checking up on email and some laundry.
hope the teething is better. poor thing.
We're having fantastic spring weather here in Mississippi, too! (Even though we had SNOW here a week ago!) I did some patio-sitting this afternoon with my pup and it was lovely. Hope you have a fab weekend!
ReplyDeleteMy neighborhood was so alive today with everyone walking around and riding bikes and just taking in the beautiful weather. Glad you had some time to yourself. I can totally relate to the good shower day. :~)
ReplyDeletei envy your lovely morning of (hopefully) relaxation. i hope it was as fabulous as you desired it to be. not that i don't love being mommy. it's just that i, too, would like to shower without hearing, "you all done, mommy?" seven million times. anyway ... hang in there with the teething. this too, shall pass. how are you feeling pregnancy-wise?
ReplyDeletexoxo,

We'll have snow and cold today, (I think) but by this weekend, it will be sunshine and fifties.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely open windows!!
It's been a week, and I miss the warm spring winds terribly.
How lovely! We had a few days of spring and now we are back to chilly and rainy. Boo.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of springtime in NY, I am trekking to the City for 5 days at the end of the month. Any suggestions on what to pack?
I finally tasted that last week, doing the simple things like walling in the park with my best friend and eating outside again at a cafe:) Makes me a happy girl :)
ReplyDeleteYay spring.
oh my god.. amazing photo. congratulations absolutely beautiful things :)
ReplyDeleteyeah, spring is coming.. I dicedide the same today: http://stiklokaroliukai.blogspot.com/2009/03/dreams-of-lavenders-fields.html
Our area is confused. There are moths, birds and bees coming out. But then it snowed last week and through everything into confusion. Never looked forward to spring this much!

Girl, I feel ya. Troy is cutting his last teeth, molars. We are up in it over here. The only thing that makes him happy is sleeping right on top of me with his hand tangled in my hair. Not a lot of rest going on for me!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!
I'm sure you had some lovely alone time!
ReplyDeleteour plans for this weekend are to finish moving in! yay!
Would you mind saying hi to your dad for me next time you talk?
I would hope he'd remember me, but it was 4 years ago that I left Belhaven! To jarr his memory you could mention my 'pop' art project, a mannequin in huge hot pink shoes. That's hard to forget! :)
thanks!
