Mother's Day morning. I didn't sleep in. As a matter of fact, as strange as it may be, I actually ended up waking up earlier than ever, before anyone - even the kids. Because the kids have a habit of invading our bed in the wee hours of the morning, we were all[...]
It was a gorgeous spring day in NYC so I decided to take a stroll in the small, but lovely Bryant Park. When I worked in the area years ago this was the place I liked coming to to de-stress during my lunch hour or after work on warm nights. The park, surround[...]
Another hot, sunny, pseudo-summer day in NYC. I looked outside my window and saw the street vibrant with people in shorts and summer dresses, entering and exciting shops, eating ice cream, and enjoying the sun's heat. My boys, on the other hand, were busy undoi[...]
I started my day with a walk. While outside, I could see it was going to be an amazing day. I came home and was greeted by my husband with, "So what adventure are we going on today, babe?" One would think that with such beautiful weather in NYC finding somethin[...]
I was up early today. My new venture got me up and working out before 8:00AM (which is early for me), and without the kids. When I done, I was full of energy and inspiration for the day. I had a list of things we could do and imagined how well it would all wo[...]

Continued from: Easter Egg Hunt, Central Park, NY NYCity Mama and family made their way across the newly renamed Robert F. Kennedy Bridge, and over to Astoria, Queens (31st Street, which is the first exit). They were hungry, and her boys were getting irritable du[...]
Brrrr! It was cloudy, windy, and cold. It seems that this is almost always the weather on the first weekend of April. The only reason NYCity Mama would even know that is because she thinks about what they were about to do on this chilly morning, and wondered wh[...]
Sunny. Over 65 degrees. Just by looking out the window, i knew it was hot. The fruit vendors in my Washington Heights neighborhood were out in large numbers. Mangos, papayas, even coconuts where on display for sale today. We decided to head to the East Village f[...]
