Other people's kids

Maisie is going through a real independent phase lately. She wants to do everything herself - or as she says, "MY! MY DO IT!" This includes putting on her clothes, opening the fridge, opening doors... you get the picture. So yesterday evening I took a little break from the constant struggle for independence, and hung out with a little girl who was happy to let me do everything for her.

That's right, it's little miss Beatrix! We spent a few hours together yesterday so that her parents could get out together on a well-deserved date night. She is such a sweetie!

Also: big fat welcome to our new friend Howie, who was born on Tuesday!! We can't wait to meet you, little guy.

What a sweet picture! So nice of you to hang out with Beatrix.

I got a sweet little Bye Bye and a wave from Maisie this morning when I dropped Ravi off. She's such a sweetheart.pzujfwg

A few months ago, Alice Swenson was visiting NYC with her two year old, Rachel. Grandma Braverman was getting in this little kid's grill. Her response was "Stop touching my Rachel!"

My little buddy Sorin (aged three) just got a li'l brother on Monday night, & Kari's kid was born then too. Must've been something in the air that night nine months ago!

xo,

Beatrix is thrilled to guest start in her friend Maisie's blog! But not as thrilled as we were to get a night out...
