The MET

Last week during our week long birthday celebration, we took a trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Everyone always asks if Alani really enjoys the museums or why do we bring her, if she’s not going to understand.

To answer that she really does enjoy museums, she’s at this stage where she’s imitating everything, and she does a lot of imitating mommy and daddy while at the museums. Such as pointing, and talking, “reading” the museum labels lol, and telling mommy and daddy to come and see “this” as some of you’ve seen on my snapchat.

Now you tell me if that isn’t enjoyment.

Anywho, back to the museum; I’ve been to this museum a couple of  times, once with friends, and once with Sekou (Pre Alani), and I have yet to see the entire museum, we only had 1 hour to tour this time, that’s because this mommy is the slowest mommy ever, and getting out of the house with a toddler is just a task in and of itself.

I definitely have to make it back, and explore the rest. I am so upset that we didn’t see the Pyscho Barn, or the Manux X Machina exhibits. However, my absolute favorite section was The Charles Engelhard Court in The American Wing. Omgoodness this wing is so beautiful, I walked in and it instantly gave me butterflies. It’s absolutely breathtaking. Just google it you’ll see. If you make it to the MET you have to make sure to check it out.

Here are some pictures from our visit. [Read more…]

Baby Picasso

As you all know, last week was Alani’s birthday.

We literally celebrated all last week, yes! 2 is such a huge milestone so a celebration all week is necessary lol. But, honestly she really enjoyed it all.

We did museums, coney Island, art gallery, etc, which I’ll save for another post.

We had a mommy & daughter date, and went to an art studio called Private Picassos (Future Mommy Meet up?!?!). I’ve been looking for an art studio for Alani to go to, perhaps take some classes in the future. I wanted to see if she’d like it, and she really had a blast.

We didn’t participate in their art class, but we did a drop in, and was able to paint, read books, color, all for 15$, and allowed to stay as long as we liked.

The place is so beautiful, and great for children to get creative, as you can see in the pictures below.

visit their website for more information.

It’s about to start getting cold out here in NYC, so it’s the perfect indoor place to bring the kiddies. [Read more…]

Alani’s 2nd Birthday Party

September 2, 2016 | 4 Comments

Throwing a party is a lot of work, and I’m always running around like a chicken without a head, it never fails.

However, the moment I took a step back and seen that Alani was having the time of her life, I just knew that we accomplished what we set out to, and nothing else really mattered.

Thank you Omi for helping a sistah out, and capturing these moments. It really took me forever to sort through these pictures, and choose the ones I wanted to upload. There were just so many great ones, some too great to even share.

 Also, thanks again to everyone who came out, and for the countless gifts.
