If you have something to say don't hesitate to holler!
One of my biggest fears about being a SAHM is getting lonely. It’s not that Fritz isn’t entertaining as hell, because he is, but who can thrive mentally on conversations with a 2 year old all day? It is critical that a SAHM cultivates her own gang of mommy friends. Up until now I’ve had one good mommy friend. Allison has been my lifesaver ever since I found out I was pregnant. She was about 6 months ahead of me and when I discovered I was pregnant she was one of the only people I knew that was also about to have a kid in their lives. I call her my mommy mentor. After she gave birth I asked her everything, and I have been ever since. I respect her as the 6 month elder wiser parent. Over the last year I was lucky enough to have her family move into the same neighborhood we live in. Our boys have become BFF and we are watching them forge their very own friendship. The other really great thing about Allison and I is that we are not just friends because we have kids, we luckily share a lot in common and enjoy hanging out regardless of the kids. So the fact that we have the kids, makes our bond extra cool. Read the rest of this entry »
Yesterday Fritz and I checked out the Brooklyn Flea in D.U.M.B.O. We had a lovely time perusing the goods and cruising the waterfront. It was an absolutely perfect day and I was totally blissing out with my little man. Here’s what we wore!
Me: Dress Motel, Glasses Sabre Vision, Black on Black Chucks. And I’m actually making some progress on growing out my bangs with this new hairstyle!
Fritz: Tank American Apparel, Cargo Shorts Baby Gap, Tube Socks American Apparel, Kicks Nike
Yea, it’s true, I may have found the perfect tote. Or should I say epaulet found me the perfect tote. I bought myself this Mill’s tote at a little boutique called epaulet on Smith Street in Brooklyn. This shop has a really specific collection of items. It’s hard to explain the vibe in epaulet, but items like Melissa Shoes, original Aviator Sunglasses, Lomo Cameras and Cheap Monday Lace tops are displayed in a very utilitarian manner. Almost saying “You need this”. It’s like J. Peterman meets Urban Outfitters. So, I bought this Mill’s tote there the other day and I adore it. Read the rest of this entry »
Sometimes I think about me and BD renewing our vows, even though we had a totally amazing wedding the first time around. It was a very intimate City Hall affair with a dinner/reception that followed. There were a total of about 15 people. Afterwards we got blasted with our besties in our suite at the Soho House. But maybe one day we’ll want to have another go at it. If we do, I would consider doing what we almost did the first time…Vegas! And I just might beg him to try a theme wedding at this place!!!! I’m thinking The Dracula’s Tomb Wedding or The Elvira Wedding. Update: I just asked BD and he said maybe for our 25th Anniversary. Only 20 years to go! Yey!
According to an old Ecuadorian wives trick I’m having a girl. I found this out last night from Fritz’s Ecuadorian babysitter. Here’s how it works…You need a friend (not sure if they need to be Ecuadorian or not) to get the following items: 2 pillows, 1 knife, 1 spoon. While pregnant friend waits in one room, friend sets up each utensil under each of the pillows. Next step, the pregnant friend enters room and is asked to choose a pillow and sit on it. If pregnant person sits on the pillow with the spoon she is having a girl, if she sits on the pillow with the knife she is having a boy. Simple as that. I sat on the spoon. Now you try…even if you already know, I’d like to test it’s accuracy.
I think this site needs more fashion. Don’t you? May I present Viva la Baby! a new reoccurring post about, duh, baby fashion. But the idea is to focus on more obscure, fun, offbeat style concepts. For our first installment I thought I focus the pieces around one of my favorite subcultures, Gothic Lolita!
1. The Silver Cross Balmoral Pram. I couldn’t see an authentic Gothic Lolita baby traveling any other way. Available at Silver Cross Pram USA $2, 995.00
This is a blessing and a curse all at once. My head is throbbing. My energy level is nil. A buzzer is going off approximately every 4 seconds, yet Fritz is busy and amused. I don’t know weather to kill myself or give myself a pat on the back.
Who the fu*k else would play the Mad Hatter?? And what other director besides Tim Burton could recreate the fantastical gem that is Lewis Carroll’s Alice In Wonderland! Check out the other stars of the film after the jump…
• Alice in Wonderland will be released in both traditional and 3-D format on March 12 2010.
I found this video by Chris Pirillo interesting food for thought mainly because I had never given much thought to the repercussions that my blog may have on my kids. The question for debate: Is putting your child’s life on the internet something that may help or hinder their future? Is it a breach of their privacy? Read the rest of this entry »
Last night I opted out of wedding karaoke festivities and headed back to the hotel room to catch some z’s. At 12:30 I was jarred awake when my inebriated husband entered the room hollering some nonsense about rednecks singing Lynyrd Skynyrd. I told him to calm the fu*k down and go to sleep. Instead he decides to further agitate the situation by watching Destroyed in 60 Seconds, a show where things crash, blow up or implode. Finally he passes out and shuts off the tele. At approximately 1:30 I get up to pee and return to bed. As soon as my head hits the pillow I hear a very loud ‘Yeahhhhh’. Half asleep I think nothing of it and shut my eyes. Seconds later my eyes blast open when I hear ‘Ohhhhhhh yeahhhhhh…fuuuuuu*kkkkk yeaaaaa”. Yup, our neighbors (no one we came with, thank god) were getting it on and the lady was laying it on thick.
