What an exciting weekend filled with a lot of firsts for Luca. Friday we went to the mall for the first time and ate at Nordstrom's cafe. We didn't do a lot of shopping, but walked around and got lost in the mall. Then on Saturday Luca took his first Long Island Rail Road trip into the city. It's only a 25 minute train ride from Bayside, Queens into Manhattan. We shopped a bit and then took the N subway train downtown to Soho. That was Luca's first subway experience too. We ate brunch outside at a soho restaurant and had a star sighting...Jack Black with wife and baby in tow. We spotted him eyeing our Bugaboo stroller. Then we went to Renee and Jeff's apartment to hang out. Patty stopped by and Luca fell asleep on her shoulder. Then we headed home and found Rob (who is sick with a cold) making home-made pasta for us and had a cheese plate out with homemade spreads for the bread! YUMMY! Sunday we had brunch in Brooklyn with Cathy, Kalyani and Cathy's friend Amy. Karen's visit was too short! She helped out a lot while she was here, and she even changed diapers and cleaned bottles! We love her and Luca will never forget her.
