Life in New York - Part 1

I've been waiting to post when I have time to do an update on our summer in Charlotte, post the pictures from our trip to Mauritius (back in June, ridiculous I know) and give a long update on life here in New York City (we are here for 10 weeks for training for my new job). Well, there isn't time for all of that now but I have a free evening so will post part 1 of our time in NY! All in all we are surviving and figuring out life as working parents. Michel has been able to work from his company's New York office and travels down south every couple weeks. So we have hardly been a part. Amazing! God is good. Bentley is going to an on-site day care that my job offers and it has been a huge blessing. The teachers there are fabulous and he has started coming home with artwork! Of course it is a HUGE adjustment leaving him each day. Bentley is not the only one shedding tears when I leave him. Usually by the end of the week I am borderline depressed because I just miss him so much. We cherish our time on the weekends and I actually look forward to my little human alarm clock going off at 6:30am on Saturdays and Sundays because I know we have the day together as a family!

Tata Babette (Aunt Elisabeth) was here for a month and watched Bentley for our first 3 weeks in New York. Talk about a blessing and lifesaver! She and Bentley obviously bonded and she was so great with him. It definitely made my transition back to work a little easier.


Bentley had his fair shair of shopping while Tata was here!

So the first few weeks he spent a lot of time at home with Tata in our 1-BR apartment. Clearly he found ways to entertain himself!

Ending here for now because Blogspot is not letting me upload more photos right now and if I don't post this it will not happen for another few weeks. :) More to come.
