Good Bye January

January has come and gone. At times it has seem to have flown by, at other times it has gone by slowly.

Some of the highlights were

Setting up Creighton's Corner in anticipation of his arrival, which will clearly now be in February....

Our last ultrasound appointment at 37 weeks. The ultrasound tech was having fun and flipped on the 3-D for a quick look at Creighton's face. His hand is covering the left side of his face, but its still so cute.


Celebrating Greg's birthday. There was no single celebration but instead one week we went out to dinner to a great southern comfort food restaurant in the East Village called Peels. I highly recommend it. The day before his birthday we were lucky enough to get tickets to see a taping of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, probably because it was zero degrees with the wind chill that day and no one else was crazy to wait in line. Fortunately the Daily Show staff ushered us in the studio in about 20 minutes. Prior to the show we were able to warm up with a little treat at a near by patisserie. Oh and I made banana cream pudding that week.... I enjoyed the excuse for all the birthday treats!


Going on Maternity leave which has been wonderful. Work threw a nice surprise baby shower, spoiling Creighton with numerous cute outfits from Baby Gap.

Squeezing in brunches, movies, and seeing friends before we get too tired to see straight. This past weekend we met Teresa for a wonderful brunch in her neighborhood and then hit Central Park to check out what it looked like after getting 19 inches of snow last week.


This winter is killing me and I even heard Greg say this week that he is tired of being cold (he never says this!) I don't mind the snow when I am on vacation, but city snow that turns into a black soggy mess filled with trash and everything else you can imagine gets really old.

So here's to February and patiently (well trying) waiting Creighton's arrival due the 9th, well see!
