saturday in brooklyn.

saturday1

we spent a good part of saturday just over the water in brooklyn together. we brought the kiddos’ scooters and they were in heaven scooting and chasing each other everywhere.  we rode jane’s carousel a few times and grabbed lunch before heading back into the city.  it was one of those breezy days that was still warm enough to keep the sweaters off and gets you just in the mood for summer in the city.  i’m so looking forward to it!

^^^i still can’t get over how magical this carousel feels when you’re there. the music, the horses, the lights! it is out of this world.^^^

saturday6

^^^we grabbed pizza at juliana’s (right next to grimaldi’s) and it was so good. josh hadn’t been yet and after my taste test with girlfriends last summer, i was anxious to get his opinion. (he loved it.) we shared an ice cream afterwards on the promenade at brooklyn ice cream factory (they have the best butter pecan i’ve ever had, even if it’s a crazy $4 a scoop) and enjoyed a few more scoots around the area before heading back home. ^^^

  2. Hey Naomi! I LOVE your dress… It really suits you. I’ve been on the lookout for something similar lately though hadn’t though of the pink! Very cool. Looks like a wonderful day and I can’t get over how quickly that little S is growing up. His face is getting more and more like E’s. Hope you guys are all enjoying the warmer and sunnier (?!) weather now. As always, thanks for posting and putting a smile on your readers’ faces!

I will be devastated when I have to schlepp everything for myself. you are lovely! thanks for sharing!

    Oh, I love carousels! Unfortunately, it would be weird for me to ride on them now, but with little ones – yes! You’re a beautiful family.

    Take care!

    I always think that it would be so hard to have kids in the city, but there is seriously endless entertainment at your finger tips! You make it look so fun and manageable!

    It looks to me as though you are wearing cute, loose fitting clothes these days, Naomi. I noticed the Easter dress, as well as how your apron was fitting on the Blue Apron shot. I totally respect and understand your waiting to share with your readers, but can’t help but wonder if #3 is on the way. You are such a lovely little family!

  29. I went on a trip in March in New York, and I did not stop myself to go for a walk in Brooklyn. And do so as the chance I’m going in the same pizzeria as you, and I must admit they are really delicious.
    By the way, your blog is really great.
    Have a good day and good luck!
    Kisses!

  32. Erica

    Love the pictures it looks like a fun day! Would love to know where the scooters are from/what company makes them? Looking for a more kid friendly version than the general metal ones for my niece & nephew.

    • TAZA

      they are micro mini kick scooters! can’t recommend them enough!

  33. Sarah

    Ooh riding the carousel looks like so much fun! I love the look of Brooklyn, but then I’d love to visit NYC full stop!

    If I sent you a graduation announcement, would you contribute to the cause, if you know what I’m saying…? That would be many prayers answered. You’re my hero and example and role model and a great one at that.

  37. Kelly

    Aww, your littles are getting so big and that pizza sounds amazing, I will have to try it!

  38. Ady
