Well the last 10 days have been very busy and exciting, friends in town, Christmas dinners, Christmas nights out, trips to museums, Katie getting 5 teeth at once and walking baby steps! All good, but Ben lost his baby curls which wasn't so good :-(.
Firstly Suzanne arrived in Manhattan last Thursday with Nicole and Ruby, her mum, it was a trip for Nicole's 18th birthday so that meant lots of shopping, shopping and more shopping so I gate crashed their girly weekend :-). I had a fab time catching up with mad Suzie and we did of course squeeze in some time for a few wines each evening (even though Suz kept telling Nic and her mum we're going for coffee, Suzanne forgot how well Rubs knows us when we get together!). All in all though pretty sensible evenings as all we could think of was the early morning shopping trips the next day. Next year a trip out for Suz is a must so we can sample the NY night life big style (Ross this is your pre-warning).
