Lately...

It's been a little hectic around here but I wanted to share some random pictures and stories with you!

Luke went in for his 6 month check up and aced it!  90th percentile for weight and 75th for head circumference and length.  He also got two shots and barely flinched -- I think the bulk in his meaty thighs served as a good pain blocker.

We made a trip out to the Bronx Zoo last weekend for the first time and it was a hit despite the oppressive heat. 

I don't know if you knew this, but we had a huge storm last Sunday.  Do you know why it poured so hard?  I think this is why:

Here's a random picture of Luke after his nap.  He slept HARD.

Oh and Bryan and me?  One day, we played hooky from work and went into the city.  It was so fun!  How cool is this pool in the middle of Soho?

And finally, I made an icebox cake today!  It seemed like the perfect thing to do in this hot weather -- no baking involved.  I followed this recipe from Smitten Kitchen (http://smittenkitchen.com/2007/01/wafer-wonderland/), but decided to add coconut to it.  Looks pretty good, huh?  How was it?  I don't know.  I have to wait 'til tomorrow to eat it!  I'll let you know.  :)

Hope you're having a great week!
