This is my first cross Atlantic flight! Finally got a stamp on my passport. They had plenty of pillows and blankets for us on Continental so I slept the whole way to Madrid!
I went back to see Dr. Ramon Murphy last week at Uptown Pediatrics for my 1 month check up. He was the original doctor who saw me in the hospital and was referred to us by the obstetrician who delivered me, Dr. Gila Leiter. Mom and dad took me to a pediatrician in Yonkers for my post hospital check up and we didn't like the doctor at all. We think Dr. Murphy is just the best, nicest and most knowledgeable. We also love his soothing voice. Anyhow, everything looks wonderful. I'm now 8 lbs. 14 ounces and 21 inches in length (which Dr. Murphy said was tall!). No immunizations until next visit. Yippee!

So yesterday was officially my first birthday! I had so much fun. Mom and dad took me to the Bronx Zoo where my nanny Kym and manny Carsten both came to meet us for the day. Kym's friend Matt and Carsten's girlfriend Ijfke came too! We saw giraffes, bears, tigers, leopards, lots of birds, snakes, a crocodile and monkeys! Mom got me a super soft polar bear at the gift shop. I also received a wooden chair with painted animals, a teddy that plays peek-a-boo, and a blue dress and new tights from Meme. Our neighbors gave me another super soft pink teddy. Three bears in all! Aunt Jenn and Asian Grandma also have gifts in the mail. Mom baked me a lovely strawberry cake with fresh strawberries and cream cheese icing. Dad wanted me to destroy it for fun but I didn't really feel like getting my fingers dirty. Haha, maybe next year :)
Okay so this past week I have been in Naples, FL to visit my grandparents and great grandmother. On Sunday April 3, my Mimi's friend Gloria hosted a brunch at her all white Miami style home on the beach. Gloria's party was amazing and I received ton's of gifts. I also got to meet my Mimi's friends. We sat poolside while guests were served mimosas, fruit, quiche with asparagus, croissants and cupcakes. But, too bad I pretty much slept through the whole thing! Gracious Gloria with my new play mat, bloomers and gift basket! My Mimi holding me while I wear my new hat and Gloria's dog Gigi checking me out while Mommy opens my gifts.
