Over The Weekend

We had gorgeous weather this weekend so we spent a magical Saturday downtown - pizza in the Village at Otto, gelato in Little Italy at La Cremeria and shopping in Soho.  Oh, and the best part was that as we were walking through Washington Square Park, we stumbled upon a man playing the piano (in the middle of the park!) - it was so beautiful.  This man's brilliance reminded me of how wonderful it will be when Olin is old enough to take piano lessons.  There is little we love more than the piano in the Burgher house.

On Sunday, we had another picnic - this time in Central Park and looked at a few more apartments.  While I don't think we found the one, the apartments we saw this weekend were better than those we've seen over the past few weeks.  One in fact was in the building that George Gershwin not only called home for several years, but where he wrote Rhapsody in Blue!  Incredible as that was, its history did not compensate for its lack of washer/dryer and high price tag.  This weekend's apartments did, however, give us renewed hope that there is the perfect home for us somewhere in this city.  We are looking at another tonight, fingers crossed that this is it because it's only a few blocks away from our current place so the move would be a cinch!

P.S. Our little guy has been cuter than ever lately - this last photo is my new favorite of him and me.
