Celebrations

We find ourselves happy and well this Easter season. Recently we have had fun reasons to celebrate: Cliff got his own office (with a window and a view of Rockafeller Center, if you stand and look at just the right angle). Cliff was admitted to the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York. There wasn't much ceremony--he took the train to White Plains, and then Brooklyn, and was told congratulations by the clerk. I was admitted to the New York Bar and did the entire ceremony at the New York Appellate Division. Both Isaac and Cliff came to cheer me on.

This is a photo of our watching conference as a family--Cliff, me, Isaac and Isaac's best friend, the frog. When Isaac started first rolling from his back to his tummy, it was because we had place the frog to his side and he wanted to be closer to it.

In March, one morning we woke up to light snow flakes falling from the sky. By the time we got on Isaac's snow suit and rolled out to the park, we were very, very disapointed!!! Not one flake stuck to the ground. This is a picture of broken hearted Isaac--all dressed up with no snow to play with.

One of Isaac's new tricks is pulling his socks off his feet, as pictured. Here, I had just changed his diaper, turned to throw it away, and turned back to find his socks were about to be removed.

Cliff gives Isaac rides on his sholders. It is a special time for both. Isaac loves to wet daddy's hair with drool and pull it in interesting formations.

Isaac finally got a permenant sleeping situation--he was getting a bit big for his bassinet. The crib will turn into a toddler bed. Toddler bed. I keep saying the words toddler bed and just have a hard time imagining that Isaac will be a toddler. Wow. Can we make time stop?
