farewell lindsay

Image
for the past few months we've been spoiled. mary found lindsay - an awesome girl from vanderbilt - to spend time with nicolas during the week. lindsay and nicolas really bonded. he lit up whenever he saw her and the two played together in the afternoons like they were old friends. she changed diapers, sang his crazy little songs over and over with him, and made so many of his days really special. and we were able to work from home and not worry about daycare. this week we say goodbye to lindsay, as she prepares to study abroad in spain for the next year. we're all gonna miss her lots. hopefully she and nicolas will make these last couple days together memorable.

nicolas loves books - not as much as he loves food - but a lot.

happy friday!

new teeth coming in + missed naps = fussiness city. but a chewbacca shirt can always lighten the mood. (thanks Andie and Gus!)

almost walking

After a big dinner, Nicolas likes to unwind by getting behind his walker and going back into the kitchen to ask for more food. Mom convinced him he wanted his bib this time, but we're not sure how long that will last.

On our New Orleans trip we also got to spend some time with web design guru denny juge and his two awesome kids. his little girl, Olive, loved Nicolas. and Jack was happy to meet him too.

on the last day of our visit to new orleans we took nicolas to the audubon zoo. we saw a few animals, but he was really excited about the carousel, as you can tell in this brief photo essay:

Nicolas in New Orleans: Nicolas and Irene

We took Nicolas to New Orleans this past weekend and were able to reconnect with so many old friends. This is Nicolas with Irene of Irene's Cuisine - a dear friend for over 14 years now, and founder of one of the most incredible restaurants anywhere.
