Today, mom, dad and I met big Jack, Marjorie, Byron and Byron’s Grandma and Grandpa at the Holiday Train exhibit at the New York Botanical Garden. It’s a model of NYC with TRAINS running through the whole thing! How cool is that? Here are some shots.
p.s. Jax, wish you were here. You would have loved it!

This one is for you Grandma V!

I’d like to start my countdown with my first picture with the big guy himself. As you can see, I’m not a big fan yet. Give me a year or two.

My mom and I have been spending lots of time visiting our friends while she’s still out on maternity leave.

This is my good buddy Byron. Look at how long he is!! Someday I’ll be that long.

This is my new friend John Michael. We went to PF Changs with them a couple of weeks ago. I can’t wait til I’m old enough to taste those yummy lettuce wraps. They look really good.

Man am i exhausted! Today my mommy took me for my first visit to New York City. We walked all over the place visiting people. Here are some pictures from our adventures.

First, we took the train from Stamford to this beautiful building called Grand Central Terminal. As you can see, people move very very fast there which was kind of scary but i liked it. I also liked saying hi to the barristas at mommy’s favorite Starbuck’s in the whole world because even though they serve hundreds of people per hour, they never ever get her coffee order wrong. For those of you who know her, you know this is very important to her. Afterall, as all of her friends tell her on a daily basis, the overpriced drinks are taking money away my college fund – so they better be correct – every time.

Me on the train and at Grand Central.

Then it was off to AOL to a fancy office overlooking the HUGE famous christmas tree in Rockefeller center. This is Julie – it was her fancy office – with a door! (i guess very rare in Internet-land)

Meet Frank – i guess he has a hat just like mine (see below) but he didn’t bring it. Maybe next time.

Meet Todd – i pooped when he was holding me which mom said was ok becuase he is a Buckeye and deserved it…way more than they deserve a shot at the championship. But anyway…

Meet Geri – she used to work with mom back in the old days when the Overture office was in Grand Central. Those were the days.

After we left AOL, we went for a walk with (Scott) Wesley, one of my mommy’s friends who was in town for a few days from LA for his job. Thanks for hanging out with us for a little while. P.S. my daddy loves your shirt and wants one just like it.

Finally, we rounded out the day by visiting Yahoo! where I got to meet all of my mom’s ‘hoo friends. I haven’t mastered my yodel yet but I’m working on it.

Michael, Rosanna and Stacey (Michael said he can’t wait for me to be big enough to play superman in the air. It’s a date.)

Rosanna – i like her alot – she made me smile

Brett tried to get me to take these MegaMan vitamins that were on his desk saying they would make me big and strong but i know better than to accept drugs from a piker.

Lauren held me even after throwing out her back picking up her little boy Harrison. Oh – and I wasn’t nearly as upset as i look here in the picture. Lauren just got the short straw of holding me when i was HUNGRY!

Adam is a veteran dad and loves holding babies. He was a PRO!

Grazia has only 5 more weeks until she has a little boy like me – good luck!

Drew, Shannon and Danielle (I distinctly remember Danielle whispering “go (navy) blue” in my ear)

James, Lily and Emily (Emily wanted to take me to hip hop but i told her that’s just for girls – or Todd)

This is me asking David for some research on what 0-6 month old babies like to do online but he told me “go to sage and submit my request in writing”. What is sage?

Last but definitely not least, we hung out with Diane, who was nice enough to help my mommy through my one big meltdown for the day. Thanks Diane!

Wow what a day! I still have the energy to smile the entire ride home on the train. Can’t wait to go in again someday.

Now, I’m off to nap with my pops. Good night everyone.

Today I got to experience my first big snow! As you can see, i’m not too fond of it yet but give me a year and i’ll be out sledding and building snowmen. You just watch.
