Yesterday was a rainy day. Oh my gosh! It was a horrible day to go out but a wonderful day to stay indoors, watch movies, and possibly cuddle while drinking hot chocolate. I was working but when I got home soaked there was only thing that brightened my day. All of you who are mothers will know what I’m talking about. For me, it was Magdalene. And she definitely made a rainy day appear sunny in that colorful raincoat of hers. I love her in it!
Weekends are for grocery shopping. Yes, we go shopping on both days. Seldom, do we have leisure time on weekends. I mean, that’s how it is when you work full time. Unless you get in the habit of shopping everyday after work. That is a smart idea. Except I haven’t got into the groove of it. I will though…eventually.

We went out to explore the city. First we went to eat at Cowgirl, a restaurant where they sell great quesadillas and Mexican dishes. You must try it!

Still, it was a delightful night just walking around and snapping pictures of…
We went out to eat Italian! Lasagna Ristorante is located on 196 8th Ave. in the Chelsea neighborhood. I always walked past people laughing and enjoying the restaurant’s food when I went to school in the area. My favorite was the bread they served before the main course. The taste was similar to garlic bread but way better. I ordered baked ziti while Magdalene had spaghetti. However, we still swap bites here and there. That’s the privilege of having a daughter, you get to taste two dishes. It turned night pretty quickly cause of the time we arrived. But we still had…
On Magdalene: Snow White Dress: Babies R Us, Headband: H&M, Shoes: GAP Halloween is getting closer and closer. I need to start thinking of what to dress Magdalene as. Last year she was Snow White. I bought the costume at Babies R Us and stained her lips and cheeks with some red lipstick. I’m so happy I was fortunate enough to capture everything on camera with a great depth of field. Well, time to look for costumes. Happy Halloween!
