On our way to NYC

Only about 20 minutes into our trip to NYC Leo decided to have the poop of the century, forcing us to venture off our path to change and feed him... on the civilian parking lot of the NSA!

Trip to the Polish Store

After seeing Leo's new pediatrician (whom we like very much) we went to the Polish store in Rockville, MA (called Kielbasa Factory). Of course, true to form, Leo was immediately hungry, but since necessity is the mother of all inventions we found a way to cope!

Happy Birthday Tea!

Yummy birthday pancakes!

From your husband, who made you birthday pancakes, your mother-in-law, who took care of Leo so that you could go to the movies last night, and, last but not least, your son Leo, who left you a big, big present in the diaper :)

New video: Leo on the Jungle Gym

Favorite activity in the morning, perfect for stretching after a long night's sleep!

Moments like these are very special!

Leo really likes his milk, and I mean REALLY likes it - just watch and see!

We apologize for not posting anything the whole week but it has been a busy and exciting week. Babcia Lucyna arrived last Thursday. Leo has visits from Shannon, Dan and baby Violet in Saturday and Tom, Ksenija, Luka and Luana on Sunday. On Monday we went to the Tidal basin to see the cherry blossoms and it was a very hot day. Leo loved it so we are looking forward to summer! On Tuesday Tea and Leo went to a Mommy group at the breastfeeding center and shared stories of problems and successes. Leo slept like an angel the whole time proving that he is very well behaved in public! On Wednesday we visited Vicky and Matteo and met their new baby Martino! We think Leo and Martino will be good friends! Just give them some time. On Thursday Tata had to go to New York so Mama and Babcia went to a Thai restaurant and had an adventure as Leo had a big explosion in the middle of lunch and we had to change his clothes. How many people can say they were naked in a restaurant at 2 PM!! Sadly no pictures are available from "the event". Tea and Leo also went for their first Thursdays at Haik's. Only Haik was there and treated us to a great Armenian dish - chicken with walnuts. Yum!! And we have an exciting few days ahead: shopping on Saturday, Tea's birthday party on Sunday, and his 2 month appointment and shots on Monday. And next Thursday our first trip to New York!! Fun times.

Happy bath times

Keeping the shrimp warm!

Just a small improvement in our bathing routine - a warm wet towel keeps the little shrimp warmer above water than constant pouring of warm water does. Still cries after the bath, but we've also developed a system to minimize that!
