family moves

to new york. i can't believe we actually left provo. and i feel there couldn't be anywhere more different that we could have moved to.

the leaves barely started changing colors in the middle of october. they also didn't stay on the trees long after the season changed. it's a shame. i was really looking forward to it.


this guy is often at the subway station by our house. he's really good too.


there are many parks near our apartment. the closest one is riverside. on our first day exploring the park simon found some dirt. it took another week or two before he found the sand pit.



we met some friends at the park. how nice of annabelle and liam to look at the camera. no thanks to simon though.


then simon decided to push liam around on the stroller. simon was happy because he was pushing. liam was happy because it was a different stroller than he was used to, and he had the trucks. i love how they are smiling at each other through the crack under the canopy.


when we're not outside playing simon loves looking out the windows, and playing on the windowsills.


this is a view from our bedroom.


this is proof we live across from tom's restaurant.

simon at the window, dump truck full of snacks.


simon's first time on the "big piano." i don't know if he really understood what was going on. he might not be heavy enough to get music and lights out of the keys.


but he tried.
