two texans and a yankee skip to main skip to sidebar two texans and a yankee the life and times of two texans and their precious little yankee thursday august 20 2009 play dates and fun thankfully our cornell friends tara shawn and their baby girl madeline live a few blocks away we ve had a few playdates with them since we ve been here i ve noticed that lilly anna definitely prefers one on one playdates and she has really warmed up to tara since we ve been here we ve also met several new people our apartment was completely renovated so everyone who lives here is new to the building it s been fun meeting our neighbors and they are all so nice one couple ruth and gary live on the top floor they are our age she is from england and he is from south africa they quickly invited us over for brunch one sunday afternoon it was so kind of them to have us over since they live on the top floor they have a wonderful terrace off of their bedroom where we had brunch they even had a blanket laid out for lilly anna to play on since our brunch lilly anna and i have had lunch in the park with ruth i m so grateful we ve met them and enjoy their company we met another couple at church they have a little girl a month younger than la we went to brunch with them one saturday afternoon and jill and i have since gotten together for several play dates jill even introduced me to another mom from texas katie who s son is a month older than la i ve randomly met a few more moms in the park who have invited us to playgroups so we ve already kept busy with several playgroups a week at this point the playgroups have definitely been more enjoyable for me lilly anna hasn t quite warmed up to our new friends she s still observing everything and taking it all in we have several groups already in place for the fall so hopefully she ll become comfortable before too long when we re not busy meeting new moms and babies we re usually in the one of the parks we absolutely love living a block from riverside park our favorite playground is right when you walk into the park so la is on a swing in less than 3 minutes we also enjoy going to the museums thanks to josh s company we have free memberships to all of the museums in the city and the central park zoo blowing bubbles and doing chalk art on our patio and dancing to music in the living room so we re doing very well i can t believe it but i love it here i love our apartment our neighborhood josh s quick commute about 15 minutes i love the city and having family close my two cousins it s really been fun lilly anna crawled into tara s lap madeline was a bit jealous so she followed the girls swinging in central park having music time looks like they are really communicating with each other in this pic pretty girls family picture tara and shawn introduced us to the boat basin on the hudson river fabulous place to go you can take your food drinks from the restaurant and picnic by the water enjoying a nice summer afternoon posted by texas yankee at 7 31 am 3 comments wednesday august 19 2009 grammy s visit july 30 aug 3 lilly anna loves her grandparents fortunately we get to see them quite often and try and skype with each of them at least once a week nothing is better though than seeing them in person my mom a k a grammy came to visit it was so wonderful to have her here we were pretty well moved in and had just purchased a twin sleeper sofa for to sleep on my mom is super busy at work and between seeing us and my brother s family who live in virginia she doesn t have many spare vacation days so it was wonderful she was able to take a couple of days off work to come up here and be with us we had a great time while she was here we spent a lot of time in the neighborhood went to the parks and to the natural history museum we had a fun brunch one morning our friends amy and brandon were in town apartment hunting that saturday afternoon so we had drinks and appetizers at the boat basin this place is great not for the food but for the patio seating next to the water the margaritas are actually pretty good too before we met amy and brandon my mom and i went shopping in midtown and stumbled upon a street sale it was so fun we both bought matching sun hats while she was here we left josh and lilly anna home and had dessert at cafe lalo which is just 2 blocks from our house and was where meg ryan and tom hanks tried to meet for the first time in the movie you ve got mail it s a really charming little place with over 100 delicious desserts my mom volunteered to watch lilly anna that sunday evening so josh and i could have a date since we had been eating out at restaurants so much that weekend i was in the mood for something casual you ll probably laugh when i tell you that we ended up taking the subway to midtown so we could eat fried chicken at popeye s what a romantic date right it will actually be one of the dates i ll always remember we arrived at popeye s at 8 01pm only for the door to be locked yep it had taken us at least 15 minutes to get down there and we had arrived 1 minute late so i proceeded to beg the manager through the glass door no less to let us in i guess my southern charm really my desperateness paid off he let us in and one other man who had actually beaten us there we were so grateful they must have thought we were the biggest freaks being so excited about fried chicken anyhow we left there to find a place to eat our greasy meal we ended up in the middle of times square and ate our dinner on one of the new tables the city just placed earlier this summer it was honestly so much fun we just sat and talked and people watched we talked about how many people had probably sat on the same chairs we were sitting on that day which actually made us a little sick to our stomachs to think about it was a great date and we re so grateful my mom watched la for us so we could get away i just wish i had brought our camera it was such an awesome weekend we re looking forward to seeing my mom again soon in just a few weeks in charlottesville va for the tcu vs uva football game on september 12 but before then we get to see josh s parents over labor day our matching hats lilly anna loved them she especially got a kick out of my mom s lilly anna is a girly girl she loves necklaces and purses especially my purse grammy bought her the adorable pink purse in the picture she really likes her new purse as you can see from the video below la is so much fun during meal time she ll wink and put her head on her shoulder unfortunately this picture didn t quite capture lilly anna in action you can see that my mom is still entertained such a cute picture of la and her grammy you can tell how much she loves her huh i love this picture because it s the last picture we took before my mom had to leave i was about to put la to bed and she had been especially cranky that afternoon because she had skipped her afternoon nap she was cranky with everyone except grammy when we were saying our goodbyes i started crying which of course made my mom start crying and la just did all of her tricks she winked giggled put her head to the side clapped i mean she did it all it was the perfect send off for my mom thanks grammy for visiting us we can t wait to see you in a few weeks posted by texas yankee at 10 28 am 3 comments tuesday august 18 2009
