my random ramblingsan infrequent (and these days, mostly Mira related…) blog

last day on site, leaving the firm tomorrow. celebrated with the team in Fishtown – dinner and bourbon at Fette Sau, drinks and foosball at Frankford Hall, then a few more and some pool at Johnny Brenda’s. great time, will miss the crew…

Mira’s now sitting at will and learning new words every day. lowered the platform in her crib and now she’s pulling herself up to a borderline standing position. cool stuff… 🙂

put Mira’s playpen together – big! had to post a video of her cute laugh playing with mama… 🙂

working from home today, late flight out. watched the snow through the windows all day, but didn’t start to stick until late.

cold walk in the park, getting too nippy for strolls along the lakeshore with Mira. takeout from downstairs and a nice relaxing night.

working from home today. late afternoon trip to the baby store and other errands.

in Philly, got our pictures back from the photographer from the weekend shoot. underwhelmed, but you get what you pay for… am now thinking about picking up a backdrop and a couple of umbrellas for ourselves.

dressed up for our photo appointment and were in and out quickly. looking forward to getting them back. walked around the park in the afternoon for some great photos of the fall colors. dinner at Atwood – meh…

Лена met the only other mom in the building a couple days back and it turns out we both had the same costume. got together for dinosaur photos in the party room on the roof. late walk up Michigan Ave. and home for dinner.

flew home early, delayed due to the weather. was planning to take pictures of the bumble bees in Millenium Park, but ended up on the roof because of the rain. babysitter came late and we taxied to the Kit Kat Lounge for a crazy night.
