I am back on the East Coast for a brief visit. This past weekend, SK and I dropped ESK off with her grandparents and went to the Big Apple for a wedding. It was busy between the wedding events (SK was a groomsman) and trying to squeeze in visits with friends.
I felt a little naked at first without a baby in tow. But I quickly got used to it and then it was like I never left NY. Except for the fact that everything in NY changes so fast! Old restaurants gone, new stores, new buildings, construction everywhere!
The wedding itself was beautiful at the Central Park Boathouse. A New York Times reporter and photographer were there, so it may be the featured wedding in the Style section next Sunday. The only hiccup: one of the ringbearers tossed his cookies toward the end of the ceremony. Poor kid.
I must have worn myself down however because I have completely lost my voice.
What started out as a little frog in my throat, developed into a pubescent 12-year-old's cracking voice, and finally degenerated into mere whistles and screeching noises. It's been frustrating not being able to properly communicate.
ESK on the other hand is being spoiled and having too much fun exploring new places and things. She's been sucking down watermelon and spaghetti noodles like a champ. Unfortunately, like her cousin GMK, she hates grass and cried when her grandparents tried to make her walk through it. She's definitely a little city girl. SK and I are going to have to do some more stuff in nature, or at least grass, when we get back to Portland.

hahahah... Jadyn was like that. She didn't like grass... Now, she rolls all over on it. Glad she had a good time with her cousins.
