Well, after three weeks of various sicknesses, Lawson is finally back to his normal happy self! Thank goodness! We have had a wonderful weekend with him - today we went to the Children's Museum of Manhattan followed by a lovely early dinner at an upper west side place our friend Robin recommended. Lawson is so well behaved and people always compliment him while we are out and about.... We are very proud! So far in January Ethan started a new job, we celebrated Ethan's 32nd birthday, it has been COLD, and we have had far fewer plans than we did around the holidays. Lawson is the center of our attention and we are loving this age with him. We are getting ready for his 1st birthday! It has been a wonderful year.
