pumpkin carving, ps 199 halloween parade, 69th street celebrations - where we were briefly on the news, trick or treating/giving out candy in our building. halloween was a grand time for everyone.
bailey started kindergarten at ps 199 and bryn started her 2's class at mandell. they are both such big girls in their own way! bailey has been getting used to a MUCH bigger school and figuring out how to navigate the school cafeteria. bryn has been doing great with separation! she loves wearing her big girl backpack, saying hi to the bunny and eating pretzels.
a couple weeks ago, we rented a minivan and airbnb and headed to boston for the week. it was pretty awesome. the city was very walkable and there were a ton of kid friendly activities nearby. we were also able to catch up with a couple old friends (becky and kelly).
full recap of our trip can be seen/downloaded here!
summer has flown by! bailey enjoyed her time at the YMCA camp and bryn continued her 2s/3s class at appleseeds. she also took "ballet" (yes, there are quotes around ballet).
almost every friday, i was able to take bryn (and on occasion bailey) on special dates. we went to sony wonder technology, fao schwartz, central park zoo, new playgrounds, a nypl exhibit, the plaza, and more!
i can't believe summer is almost over and bailey is going to start kindergarten. CRAZY!
on the same weekend of grandma carol's wedding, cooper (aka homeboy) lam lillvis was baptized at all angels church. it went off without a hitch as homeboy didn't even cry.
uncle john, aunt denise and uncle sam were on hand to once again fulfill their duties as godparents.
we then celebrated at a lovely luncheon nearby at fish tag.
