Back from NYC

Like usual we had a F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S time in NYC and like usual most of our events revolved around food. The Topoloski's love food, Truman included! So the flight to New York by myself was fairly seamless...we were a little worried as the night before Jerry spent five hours at the airport only to come come and fly out the next morning. I had visions of me trying to figure out how to entertain our little one for hours upon hours. Luckily, our flight was on time and the woman sitting beside me liked children (thank goodness!). Truman was a saint and when we arrived in LGA, our car service was waiting for us and we headed into Manhattan. Truman had not eaten dinner yet and was exhausted, it was close to eight o'clock. So we fed him and put him to bed...although he had some difficulty falling asleep and ended up waking up in the middle of the night, but what can you do? Once the Tdot was asleep we ordered some food and caught up with Sabrina and Mary. Here's the thing about NYC, no matter what time it is, you can ALWAYS have food delivered from ANYWHERE!!!

Saturday morning Truman decided to sleep in (yippee) and we went for brunch at our usual place. After brunch Truman, mom and dad took a much needed nap. We then headed to Riverside Park for an afternoon picnic. We were joined by Allegra and Mike. What a spread! Delish!

After our time in the park, Frans picked us up and we were off to Queens to see Adrianna and Frans' new house and of course see the girls, Rochelle and Natasha. Here's a pic of the kids playing...it looks as though Truman has done something he shouldn't have with that smirk on his face. Adrianna and I determined that Truman and Rochelle are very similar in terms of their verbal skills. The two of them had fun "talking" to one another. Unfortunately our stay in Queens was cut short because of Truman's bedtime. We were so worried to miss his window again and be headed for disaster. Truman fell asleep on the drive home and was an angel all night. Sabrina, Mary, Jerry and I stayed up to all hours debating the world's problems but I don't think we solved anything!

Truman again slept in Sunday morning (I am not sure what it is about NYC, I thought it was the city that never sleeps?). We headed to The Water Club for a delicious Sunday brunch. Truman slept for most of our stay there so Jerry and I really were able to enjoy ourselves and the food. After brunch we went down to Greenwich Village to watch the Gay Pride Parade (Truman's first parade!). Truman LOVED watching all the people and looked as though he was having a blast! We are so sad that we had to come home so quickly, but we know that we'll head back soon!
