on saturday afternoon the highs reached a balmy 24 degrees in nyc and we were dying a slow and painful death of the worst cabin fever ever.
huck wasn't interested in napping and i needed an excuse to put on a shirt, so we decided to bundle the kid up in every article of clothing he owns and go for a brisk, chilly walk to lull his tired bones to sleep.
at about 59th and 6th avenue huck woke up and smacked his lips at me, so we ducked into the first warm building we could find so i could feed him. it happened to be a pretty rad toy store. we ransacked the place like kids hopped up on sugar.

ReplyDeleteThe things they come up with these days.
Looks like a fun weekend!

Wow! A concert pianist in training already! He is uber talented just like his parents!
ReplyDeleteYou little guy looks just like your hubby! (I get that a lot myself... except they say it like I had nothing to do with it haha)
ReplyDeleteaahhh to the newborn baby dolls!
ReplyDeleteThose newborn dolls scare me slightly.
ReplyDeleteI am freaked OUT by those newborns! My daughter has a doll that says things/makes random noises when moved. It scares the crap out of me when I go in to check on her/smother her in kisses in the middle of the night and I accidently kick the doll.
ReplyDeleteLOVE FAO Schwarz! Way better than the Toys R Us in Times Square!
ReplyDeleteAnd the little Huck is looking adorable as usual!
Big!!
ReplyDeleteThere are parts of one's soul that NYC can satisfy that no other place on earth can reach. I miss it. Also, I really thought I saw you at church yesterday, which was weird because I don't know you :) You weren't visiting NW Arkansas yesterday, were you?
ReplyDeletethat baby display is creepy!
ReplyDeleteNat my sweet friend, this makes me miss your face in real life. Will I ever see you again?? We're moving to Germany this summer, if you're in Utah before then we've got to get the babies together. Arranged marriage, you know.
ReplyDeleteBIG is absolutely one of Tom Hanks best movies - EVER! I mean a trampoline in your apartment...genius!

Love FAO. don't know if I've ever been to the NYC one, which is a tragedy. Also, is it sad that I wish I could get the dollhouse couch in real life size?
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Love FAO! It always reminds me of the movie "Big!" Glad you had a great weekend!
ReplyDeletehahaha! love it love it love it! and i want to go to that FAO one day...
ReplyDeleteCheck out that awesome Storm Trooper! And that red-headed baby is my favorite.

ReplyDeleteHow fun! Big made that store..well..Big.
ReplyDeleterecently i came across your blog and found the 'darlybird' sponsor. thank you! their offer for 'earrings of the month club' was irresistable! i thought 'what a great valentine's gift for my daughter!' i'll let you know her feedback.

You've inspired me to watch BIG again. I totally own the movie, but haven't watched it in quite some time. Now I feel like I absolutely NEED to!
ReplyDeleteSpencer's parents would tell him that FAO Schwartz was a toy MUSEUM. That's GENIUS. They told them they could play with the toys, but none could leave the museum. That way, they didn't have any kids whining about wanting this and that, like I'm sure Huck did as soon as you left.
ReplyDeleteExcept all he wanted were boobs.
