ok, so much for a "down" day. we managed to pack in another full day here in manhattan. the morning (er, noon?) started off with a free trip to the Guggenheim. andrea's boyfriend jake works for the museum of natural history, which means he and his guests get into any museum in the city for free... score! that was a nice bonus and meant that we didn't feel obligated to spend loads of time in the museum because we had paid to get in. good thing too, since i am apparently not the most appreciative patron of modern art. i mean, i like it, most of it. but i cannot stand in front of each piece for ten minutes while i contemplate the details. i just can't. i don't have the attention span.
so after that, it was off to park and lexington avenue to see where the rich people play. once we got past the glitz and glamour, and down into a more reasonable neck of the woods, a bit more shopping ensued. this is where the mommy got to actually try on clothing *gasp* for the first time in many, many years. it seems that having a toddler and living atleast five hours from any descent establishments does not lend itself to such things. so the day was thoroughly enjoyable for that reason, among others. and i managed to score some good deals for the ever expanding girth in the meantime.
as for isa and phil, they are still living it up in denver. i am told that isa has some "serious" new molars about to make an appearance. which is all fine and well, except that she still has four other teeth trying to come in as well. sigh. reality looms on the horizon.
