Thanksgiving

So I have been so busy lately I have had no time to post.  I had intended to write posts about Emma's first snow fall and her dislike for broccoli.  Well that didn't happen so here is the quick recap.  We had our first snow fall a few weeks ago.  Wembley loved it and Emma didn't really notice. :)  I will say it made me realize that it will be harder to get around as pushing a stroller through the snow is a bit of a challenge so I chose to wear her in the Ergo.  It worked well but once the ground gets slippery that will prove to be more of a challenge.  As for broccoli, well Emma is starting to make is quite clear when she doesn't like things as she did when we tried to feed her broccoli.  I even tried mixing it in with carrots which she liked but she wasn't fooled.  Oh well on to the next food.

Now back to Thanksgiving.  We hosted Thanksgiving this year which is why I haven't had time to post.  Between cleaning the house to prepare for our guests and preparing the food all while taking care of Emma I haven't had a free second.  Last week I think I was just burned out and took the week to relax a little.  My parent's came in to the city Tuesday evening and came out Wednesday morning to hang out with me and Emma.  While Emma napped my dad stayed home with her and my mom and I went all over the area buying pies and cookies and of course wine.  Everything else had been delivered Tuesday evening (I love Fresh Direct).  Wednesday afternoon we headed to Brooklyn where Sarah hosted us all for a nice evening.  Thursday was spent cooking and eating as any good Thanksgiving is. Friday I went in and met Sarah, my mom and dad and we had lunch and walked around the city.  We spent a lot of Thanksgivings at my Grandparent's house in Westchester and I always remember going into the city the day after Thanksgiving so it brought back memories.  Saturday my mom, Sarah and I went to see Nice Work If You Can Get It on Broadway with Matthew Broderick.  I was a good show and after Gary brought Emma into the city and my dad met us as well for dinner.  Emma and I took the train to Penn Station the next day to see my parents before they headed home.  Overall it was a fun week but very exhausting for all of us.  I don't have any pictures to share from the week unfortunately.
