New York Hall of Science visit

July 31, 2017 |

Lala , my nephews and I visited the New York Hall of Science museum. My nephews have been asking me to take them here for a while now. I cannot believe it was my first time visiting, but I’m glad we chose this time to go, because the Angry Birds exhibit is so dope.

I love that this museum is allows the children to be so interactive. Alani loved it, a tantrum was close to happening when it was time to leave, so that tells it all. Check out our pictures below.

“Kid Power”

This exhibit is so creative

If you’ve ever played the game Angry Birds, you know how fun it is, well at the museum you’re able build an angry bird setup with life size blocks and an angry bird on top, then use a giant slingshot to knock them down with a ball. Really fun. This particular exhibit runs until August 27th.

I love that LaLa is so fearless.

The Hall of Mirrors, left me feeling dizzy.

The science Playground was Alani’s favorite part, and i;m sure it would be for any kid.

She went on this slide over a dozen times, NO exaggeration.

Always looking out for his little cousin.

Oh, forget trying to get a picture, when we’re at Alani’s favorite place (The Playground)

Oh, summer

July 24, 2017 |

Oh, Summer, I usually hate you. Hate how uncomfortable you make me feel, how annoyed I get when I walk out the door and i’m dripping sweat instantly, or that outside smell once I get back into the house.

However, this summer for some reason, I’ve fallen for you, fallen for you kind of hard, and you seem to be leaving so quickly. Sorry for not appreciating you, and I hope we can enjoy each other a little while longer.

Uncle Nana, Can You Take Me To Play Soccer?

July 21, 2017 |

Alani is always asking my brother to take her to play soccer. She knows that he plays soccer, and is always upset when he has a game and doesn’t take her. Every time she speaks to him she says uncle Nana when are you going to take me to play soccer. Thankfully we were able to set it up and she had a blast!!

Honestly, I’m not forcing her into any sport which ever she gravitates to I’ll be there front and center supporting her. whether that be swimming, soccer, whatever. My parents never forced us to play anything, but also made it clear that we weren’t going to be kids who sit on the couch all day doing nothing at all, and I’m definitely instilling that in my child from young. Plus, research shows that children who play sports has physical, emotional, social, educational and other benefits that last into adulthood; I’m just saying.

But, in all honesty this was supposed to be my workout session with my cousin, but turned into a workout/soccer family day, and you know what? I can’t be mad at that.

Check out the pictures below

Alright Uncle Nana, so what are we doing?

 

I’m going to kick the ball like this (I could really imagine the conversation going something like that lol)

Alani usually doesn’t like following directions, she likes doing her own thing (what 2yr old doesn’t) but this day she was all ears, and was also putting work in. I’m glad she’s enjoying this sport.

Blurry but hilarious.. they’re both celebrating the goal she just made lol

Obviously I couldn’t pick out of all of these pictures which ones to upload so why not all!!!

And then after all that running and sweating you have a family size bag of cheese doodles (I promise I didn’t let her eat the whole bag, plus why would my dad even buy this big bag of cheese doodles for.. Grandparents I tell you)

Funday Sunday

July 17, 2017 | Leave a Comment

Yesterday was exactly what the title described.

We hit the city like true New Yorkers; took the train to Perrier Flavors Studio, for their new flavors of their sparkling mineral water. Unfortunately the last day was yesterday. We also ate some pizza, and had Ice Cream in honor of National Ice Cream day.

Check out more pictures below

This Pop Up studio was so cool, but I don’t know if it was a good idea to bring a toddler to a ball pit that has a time limit, because what toddler wants a time limit in a ball pit, not mine for sure!!

Right after her meltdown. Another mommy lesson learned for me, don’t tease the kiddies with fun.

When that Perrier drink is hitting, lol

Oh yea, we also stopped by St. Ives store in soho, where you can make your own body washes and lotions. They also have this super cool photo booth, as you can see in the picture above.

“Lord I Pray this pizza is as good as it looks” lol trust me this Lombardi’s Pizza was everything and more!!!

Did someone say National Ice Cream Day?!
