Natalie's 1st day at Cozy Days Preschool

This past Friday was Natalie's 1st day at Cozy Days Preschool and she loved it! This year she is in the 3-year old program with Mrs. McFadden. The amount of love and enthusiasm that the teachers at Cozy Days have for the kids is literally overwhelming! It took one day to convince me that this was the best decision we could have ever made, I couldn't imagine a better place for her to be! This will be a very exciting year for Natalie.

A special weekend for mommy and daddy

This past weekend Thomas and I left our two babies with Grandma and Grandpa "Tookles" and set off for a special weekend alone. Thomas' good friend Mike was getting married and the wedding/reception took place in Orangeburg, NY, just minutes from the city. It was a good excuse for us to get away because we wouldn't have done it otherwise. As much as it hurt to leave our two best buddies behind, that trip was exactly what we needed to recharge our batteries and catch up on "us".

It was so nice to dance with Thomas, it doesn't happen enough.


Cheers to an amazing weekend!
