we are so excited to be featured on the small fry blog today! we made this little video in midtown back in april when the girls were in town for the bugaboo launch, with jenner brown of lumineux films. we love it so much! we are so lucky to have such a beautiful memento of this exact moment in our lives with our beautiful little boy. jenner was the greatest, he is so talented and so much fun to talk to over the course of the shoot. and obviously the whole weekend with the girls was just about the most fun ever. thank you, small fry!
and now, for huck.
isn't this ridiculous? huck was asked to be part of real simple magazine's round up of cutest kids' halloween costumes earlier this summer. doesn't he make for a very roguishly handsome bookworm? the shoot took place in tribeca over the summer and it was so much fun. (so much work, being a stage mom!) huck is a natural, the goof. i think i fall more in love with that turkey by the minute.
ohhhhhkay.
ReplyDeleteyou two *and* moon river? this video wins all the awards.
This made me tear up! You two are absolutely precious, I tell ya.
ReplyDeleteThis is so very cute. Who is singing this version of "Moon River"?
ReplyDeleteI commented on the small fry blog too, but thought you deserved one as well. :) That video is so sweet! Definitely something to cherish forever. And Huck the caterpillar! Ahhh I love it!
ReplyDeletexo
Oh, that video is so sweet. How cherished I'm sure that will be!
ReplyDeleteAlso: love the name change. I feel like it's such a beautiful and mature next step in the coming-of-age tale that is this blog :)
also, the shout out to your 'huckleberry friend'? *swoon*
ReplyDeleteIn a non-freakish, completely innocent way, I am totally smitten with you two. I love to watch your love. My boys are older now and we didn't have the technology... Instagram/blog love like we do now. Meaning, there is no way they would let me constantly post pics of them present day! It takes me back to a time when mine would let me nuzzle on their neck and hold their wee little hands. This video is just the sweetest and the music is perfection. Btw, those lashes...
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! This is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat was such a lovely video... I've never been to New York, have always wanted to go, and now I want to get there tomorrow!!! Thank you for sharing this!!! So great!!!
ReplyDeleteXXOO Lucy
I may have shed a little tear watching that video. How beautiful and romantic and just sweet it is to be raising your boy in your city the way that you are.*
ReplyDelete*not that it isn’t without trials, but they are, in life, a given.
naaaaaaatalie! so sweet.
ReplyDelete1. Huck as a caterpillar forever, please. 2. I've said it before but will say it again, if you ever need an industry recs/advice/thoughts, please don't hesitate! Been at this biz since I was little, and am now business coaching other actors as a side gig. Plus I think I've just got a secret dream of Huck the Actor that I'm holding on to ;) Love the blog name change and overall look, as always.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweetie! Loving the new blog look! Great video!! :)

I've never commented before but I've been following your blog for several months. You make me want to pack up my family and move to NYC! You're so much fun to follow and you're an amazing mother!
ReplyDeleteThis is darling. From a many-years reader, love the name change...and you look smashing in this vid!
ReplyDeleteNatalie, you are so beautiful! And that Henry is to die for! (: It's amazing how your love for him shine through in the clip and we can't even hear you speak! LOVE THIS!
ReplyDeleteokay, what is all this 'nRelate' stuff? i read their webpage and it seems weird and corporate. do they pay you, do you pay them? i'm intrigued and a little lost. is this like what love taza did?
ReplyDeletehaha it's a funky bug from the URL swap! normally it looks muuuuch prettier. we're on it we're on i! you CAN use nRelate for ads but we don't. we've just been using it instead of linkwithin because it's more customizable if you want a prettier look. blerg blerg technical difficulties. ;)
Deletethanks girl! i'm all, what is going on here??! love the new name but i'll miss the old one too :).
DeleteSuch a lovely video! Moon River is one of my favorite songs, and I lovethat cover! Do you know who sings it? Also, that dress!
ReplyDeleteHuck looks adorable! -Hanna Marie
ReplyDeleteoh, natalie! is it silly that this video made me cry? this song is perfection...breakfast at tiffany's is one of thee best. and you + motherhood = beautiful. very sweet video. i am dyyyyyyyying for new york even more! xoxo

Sweeter than sweet. And I don't want to live in NYC, but when I read your blog and watch your adventures, I really, really do.
ReplyDeleteNatalie, your video brought tears to my eyes. It was very beautiful. You and Huck make a great couple!
ReplyDeletethis little video made my two year old daughter hop out of the tub to watch it on the bathmat next to me. she giggled and my eyes teared up... i can't help but feel a little silly, but the "two drifters off to see the world" always makes me cry.
ReplyDeletesuch a precious way to capture such memories.
Hi Natalie Jean! I've been reading your blog for at least a year now and this is my first comment (that I remember; sorry, I'm a slacker)! Love the new site!
ReplyDeleteAnd this little video? So beautiful. Every mom should be so lucky to have a film crew document a day out with her child and produce such a magical keepsake. I couldn't help but think your lil guy is the luckiest boy in the world. My teary eyes made me want to tell you thanks for sharing.
Crap. That video is gonna make this mama cry. Little boys are the best. xx
ReplyDeleteSo, so sweet. Totally made me tear up. You are gorgeous and Huck is all kinds of cute! So awesome to always have that little movie of you & Huck & your New York.
ReplyDeleteOh, that is the sweetest video. Makes me want to be a mama real bad. So beautiful, Nat.
ReplyDeleteI commented on Small Fry but I wanted to leave what I said over here too :)
ReplyDeleteI have always so much I lived in New York and this video makes me wish even more that I could! And also in my dream world of living in New York, you and I could be besties because I think you are awesome and that Huck of yours is too cute for words. I love everything about the video and the song made me swoon even more! xo
