We saw our favorite twins this weekend, Ella and Sophia. While Julia is visiting her family in Poland, Eric is holding down the fort. We spent about an hour at the Central Park Zoo and then went to the Billy Johnson playground nearby. The weather was perfect and we all had a wonderful time. Two weeks until we jet off to Turkey!

From our last trip to the Dominican Republic…

Adam had a great birthday party today. Thanks to all our friends for coming and celebrating with us.

We have the best friends ever. A couple of weeks ago they invited us to their home in Long Island and it was so much fun. We grilled and chilled by the pool. Our preschool boys were brave because the water was still cold, but nothing would stop them from splashing and swimming. It was a great day. We really enjoyed getting out of Manhattan and spending the day in the ‘burbs.

This year we are celebrating Adam’s birthday twice. The first time was with his school buddies and tomorrow we are getting together with our friends. It reminds me of my Mom and the story about her birth certificate. My grandparents were quite busy when she was born. My grandfather was in the military and was getting ready to be deployed to start his long years of military service. My grandmother was to follow him shortly thereafter and because they were so busy they didn’t get a chance to get a copy of my mother’s birth certificate until well after her birth. So, we think she may have been born on January 7th even though the actual certificate was issued on January 21st. Hence we celebrate both dates.

Adam actually might beat this record this year. We will be celebrating his birthday and many other birthdays in July when we finally fly to Antalya, Turkey to see my family and spend ten days soaking up the sunshine and enjoying the warm Mediterranean Sea. We can’t wait!

One of my colleagues is a talented attorney and a published author. We recently got together to take a few photos to update her various business profiles.

Each year we have a tradition to take a photo of Adam at 6:54am, the exact time he was born. He is three years old today and we love him more and more every day.

Here he is at 3 hours, one year, two years and a photo taken this morning!
