New York Review

The suitcases are finally back in the closet, along with the winter clothes, and we have settled back in here after our extended trip to NY. We had an indescribably wonderful trip with family visiting, beautiful snowy weather and lots of new stimulations for Matilda.

The weather was perfect: snow showers almost daily with clear blue skies in between. Never so much snow that my wimpy California self got nervous driving.













Matilda got her first tooth while in NY and found that a cold donkey-treat was quite soothing to gnaw on. We spotted her second tooth today!






If we had a griddle like at Dad & Kathy's house we would have french toast all the time. It was so awesome to cook 6 pieces at once and not have to eat on lousy slice while waiting for another to cook.


This step stool was the perfect height for Matilda. She would use it as a "walker," driving all around the living room and terrorizing the cats.














Strangely, Matilda was like a different baby in the car in NY. She never cried and fussed like she typically does. Instead she slept for almost every car ride and on a few occasions even fell asleep before we finished buckling her in. We joked that here in LA we should start bundling her up in her winter coat and cranking the AC to simulate the NY environment.
