First Haircut

As you can see, this little guys hair was out of control!! It was time for baby Bieber to get a new do! There were a few days that he wore his Knicks headband, so he could see!! He was such a trooper. He didn't cry and barley let out a peep during the whole thing. It was uneventful in a good way!


All done! He loved the fire truck chair. He kept reaching forward to try and ring the bell.

Happy Birthday Shawn. Nolan is so lucky to have you as a dad. You're so great with him, especially now that he's getting older, and you can play with him all day! Thanks for always being there for us. You're the best, and we love you.

Movie on our Street

All of last week our street was basically shut down for a movie shoot. This movie just happens to star Philip Seymour Hoffman!! He was out and about all week. I took all of these shots standing in front of our apartment! The name of the move is "A Late Quartet."

11 Months

Is it possible that my next Nolan update will be for his first birthday!?!?! Every year I've lived in NYC has flown by, and it feels like the past 11 months have hands down been the fastest.

The start of 10 months was rough. Between battling a series of colds and separation issues, Nolan spent one to many nights sleeping next to me. He was so fussy and annoyed with not being able to verbally communicate. Finally, a little over a week ago, my fun and fairly easy baby was back in action.

This month has show a lot of understanding signs. He is now a professional waver and loves to throw his hands up in the air for "So Big!" He's also still been working on his dance moves, standing, walking and talking. He started to blow kisses and give kisses and is able to point out some body parts, the nose being his favorite. He is very good with this pointer finger, he loves when you give him a high 1. It has also been great for me to figure out what he is looking at. He likes to point at all kinds of things, and then I tell him what they are! He also knows how to brush his hair and teeth. Ok, so not very well, but at least he puts the toothbrush in his mouth and attempts to brush his hair with the hairbrush, It's pretty hilarious. He also is starting to share, and I love it. He likes to eat a bite of his food then hand it to me, or he tries to put his binky or bottle into my mouth. It's all kind of gross, but what can a mom do? :)

This week has finally been a little bit warmer, and we've been able to go to the park. It has been great to let Nolan crawl around the playground and spend some time on the swings. I really think the fresh air is not only good for him, but for ME! It's been a long and snowy winter. We're ready for spring!

Basketball Weekend



On Saturday Nolan and I went up to the Knicks Training Center with Shawn to shoot a video with a couple of the player. Nolan had such a great time crawling around on not one, but two full sized basketball courts. He got to meet and have a little photo shoot with Landry Fields, the NBA All Star Rookie game starter. If he only knew all the things he's been able to do in his short little 10 month life!

On Sunday we went to the Knicks/76ers game with our good friends Patricia, Will and their son, James. When I got to their house, they had a little gift for Nolan. Matching Polo Oxford shirts in orange to wear to the game. In the 4th quarter, they boys were on the jumbo-tron for about 30 seconds. They both had on their protective ear phones and a Knicks sweatband. It was so cute and hilarious. The crowd loved them, and a few people came up to me thinking they were twins!
