Photo Friday: New York Met with Newborn

Like most new moms, I felt trapped at home when E was a newborn. My mind works a little differently than most, though. I reasoned that if I were in New York with the baby I would be able to get out and about more easily than if I were trapped in my home trying to make carseats and naptime work in concert.

E did great on his first cross-country flight, a red-eye, though I didn't sleep a wink until we landed and checked into the hotel. When I look at this picture now, I see a mom who is absolutely exhausted, but happy.

    The smile on your face is almost as wide as the arches!

    I braved the State Fair with my four kids yesterday, and we had a blast!

    Mine were actually posted Wednesday, you know :).
    I will try to participate next week, too!

    I totally know the feeling of not sleeping a wink while flying with baby! Such a relief to finally have help when you arrive somewhere. Or at least have the chance to pee in peace.

    I don't have a blog, so that's just a picture... It was taken last July, when my son was 3 months old, and we decided to capitalize on my maternity leave with a trip to the Swiss Alps. It was fabulous!

    Nice end-of-the-day vibe with your photo.

    Next few weeks, posting photos will depend on whether I've got WiFi access...but I'll try :)

    Thanks for all the nice comments & the great pictures. I really look forward to this every week now :)

    Eli, since I can't comment on a blog, I'll do it here. I'm loving your picture of the Alps... my two kids loved that Moby wrap too.
