Theo and Grandpa make some beautiful music together as Nola watches.

Theo's First Day of School!

2011-09-15T19:25:00.000-04:00

This week Theo started school at a Twos program! He loves going to school and adores his teachers.

Vidpocolypse!

2011-09-14T22:45:00.002-04:00

We've had a big batch of awesome videos stacking up this summer. Please enjoy the footage!

Photogeddon!

2011-09-14T22:32:00.001-04:00

One side-effect of having two kids is the inability to get photos posted in a timely fashion. Better late than never, right??

May we present to you a big batch pf photos from the last 3 months!

Play Ball!

2011-09-14T22:14:00.002-04:00

While in Texas Theo got his first tastes of shooting hoops and playing baseball. Check the photos and video below.

Texas Time!

2011-09-14T22:03:00.000-04:00

We had a delightful visit to Texas this summer to visit the family, cool off in the pool, and get Matt some BBQ.

BePop, always rocking the hat!

Grumpy gives Nola some ideas.

Best Buds

2011-09-14T21:43:00.001-04:00

We get asked a lot how Theo & Nola are getting along. As evidenced by the photos below, they are best buds!

Hamptons House

2011-09-14T21:38:00.000-04:00

We made our annual pilgrimage to the Hampton house this summer, giving Nola her first taste of East End living.

Mustache Mayhem

2011-09-12T19:38:00.002-04:00

To know our family is to understand that we love mustaches. It's in our blood, which means Theodore (and eventually Nola) has the 'stache gene as well.

Seeing is believing.

Theo's 2!

2011-08-09T21:26:00.006-04:00

We celebrated Theo's birthday in June. The birthday boy requested hats, and hats he got!

Magnolia took her first opportunity to wear crinoline.

The birthday boy spent most of the party behind the camera himself.

The result was many photographs like this:

and this:

Happy Birthday, big brother!

Week One with Nola

2011-06-07T10:22:00.000-04:00

Magnolia Ever was born just a few days ago, and we are so thrilled to have this perfect little girl in our family! Mom & baby are happy and healthy, Dad is overjoyed, and Theo is thrilled to be a big brother.

Here are some early photos of our newest addition. Feel free to call her Nola.

2011-05-28T13:26:00.008-04:00

Theo is on the precipice of becoming an older brother, so we wanted to share many of the photos and videos that have amassed over the past few months.

Enjoy!

In a word: Cute

Tea Lounge Musical Chairs

2011-01-23T10:46:00.003-05:00

Theo and I hit the local coffee shop, the Tea Lounge, quite often. It's a paradise of different seats for Theo to try out. Have a look as he makes his way around!

Theo and Daddy tore it up one afternoon at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Pac Man Fever

2010-10-21T20:38:00.003-04:00

There's a special moment in every father-son relationship. It's the day a dad gets to introduce his boy to the Class of 1981 Table-Top Ms. Pac Man / Galaga game console.

I'm.....so proud.

Harvest Fest

2010-10-21T20:30:00.004-04:00

Went up to Stone Barns a few weeks ago for Harvest Fest. Theo tapped into his inner farmer.

Sunday in the Park with Theo

2010-09-04T10:16:00.003-04:00

Last Sunday we had a great day in Prospect Park with friends. Our pal Marcele creates stunning photogrpahy with her iPhone (she maintains a few blogs of her work that you should check out).

Here are some of her shots from that day.

Theodore is Walking on Sunshine!

This speaks for itself. We're overjoyed!

Theo's First Haircut

2010-08-21T13:08:00.003-04:00

Well, it had to happen sooner or later. Last week Theodore had his first ever haircut! He got to sit in a red car and blow bubbles while Gina worked the fastest scissors in Brooklyn.

Our little boy is all grown up. Welcome to the haircut club, Theo!

Right before the chop.

Gina works her magic.

Handsome man!

Caption Contest

2010-08-21T13:03:00.003-04:00

We've been loving this photo of Theodore, imagining all sorts of things he might be saying in this moment.

What do you think he's saying? Post below in the comments. Winning caption gets bragging rights and a huge kiss from Theo the next time you see him!

North Carolina Trip

2010-07-18T19:35:00.003-04:00

We took a trip down south to North Carolina for Julie's wedding and an extended beach vacation with the Plattsenheimer crew.

Needless to say, hilarity ensued.

Just sittin' here mindin' my own business...

Peek-a-boo!

Pure joy.

Mind the gap (between the teeth, that is)

"So I says Mable, I says"

Peek-a-boo two!

First in flight (that day).

Speaking of, Amanda treated me to a hang gliding adventure as an early birthday present!

Happy First Birthday!

2010-06-14T19:29:00.003-04:00

Theodore celebrated his first birthday on June 11! No first birthday would be complete without a messy cupcake and some music. Joy!

Memorial Day at Storm King

2010-05-31T19:59:00.004-04:00

We spent Memorial Day with the cousins up at Storm King.

Aunt Sis had an old helmet that fit just right on Theo's head.

Uncle Dr. Ascot & Aunt Sis were celebrating their anniversary. Cousin T-Bird recreated the bubbles from their wedding.

If you'd like to see the whole batch take a look here. There's roughly 1 million photos of Theo sitting in the grass.

Bravo Italia!

2010-05-23T09:14:00.004-04:00

Molto Bene Theodore!

Shi & Theo

2010-05-23T09:10:00.003-04:00

Shiloh & Theo. Those Plattsenheimer genes are strong.

Where on Earth is Aunt Sis?

2010-05-23T09:07:00.000-04:00

And how about that jaunty cap huh?

Frequent Flyer

2010-04-22T08:42:00.003-04:00

Theodore was back flying the friendly skies last week as we made a trip to Dallas/Fort Worth for a wedding.

I came back from the restroom to find this happy guy in my seat!

The High Line

2010-04-06T18:57:00.004-04:00

This week we took a trip to The High Line, which is "a public park built on a 1.45-mile-long elevated rail structure running from Gansevoort Street to 34th Street on Manhattan's West Side."

We had heard great things, and on Matt's last day of spring break, we decided to make the trip.

Amanda noticed that a few of the lounge chairs were built from stacked wood and have wheels that operate on a track. The train-track motif was repeated tastefully along the walk.

Detail of the mobile lounge chair.

The Standard Hotel is situated right above the southern stretch of the High Line. If you look closely you can see Theo and Mommy on that bench.

We can dig it.

There were all sorts of excellent design elements as we walked along the path. These colored windows were in an underpass as we walked beneath a building.

Lookin' good mommy.

Lookin' good Daddy.

All DJs Have to Start Somewhere

Thinking Inside the Box

2010-03-23T22:47:00.001-04:00

As prophesied by parents throughout the ages, no toy can compare with the box it came it in. One morning Amanda looked over and saw that Theo was had figured out how to get into the box and seemed to be enjoying himself quite thoroughly.

We believe this video sums it all up.

Picnic Party

2010-03-23T21:02:00.003-04:00

This past weekend was a winner weather wise (alliteration anyone?). We met up with the family and had ourselves a picnic.

Theo's Fantastic Voyage

2010-03-23T20:12:00.003-04:00

Theo's been having lots of good times recently. Here are a few photos to catch you up on what's been happening.

Pure Joy.

Aaron & Ayako came for brunch - yeah!

We went to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and saw some oranges on a tree.

Snowday!

2010-03-23T19:46:00.003-04:00

During the Snowpocolypse, Dad had a day off from work. We went over to Prospect Park to see what Brooklyn was up to. Theo came along for the journey and made a few friends.

We're in a bit of a pickle

2010-01-02T22:16:00.004-05:00

Happy New Year! We had the pleasure of ringing in the decade with the Halpern-Ranzers down in Philly. It was quite an evening filled with friends, food and lots of laughter. Have a look below.

Good lookin' family, but who's that hippie on the far left?

We rolled our own sushi for dinner - so tasty.

2010-01-02T22:06:00.004-05:00

We've been really active over the last few weeks, and wanted to share this smattering of shots chronicling our adventures. Enjoy!

Hollywood Swingin'

Last week Theodore had his first visit to the playground and took a trip on the swings. Is that laughter or terror? We're going with laughter.

Unique Holiday Gifts

2009-12-28T11:29:00.001-05:00

Do not try this at home.

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas

2009-12-26T21:56:00.000-05:00

Theodore and family celebrated his first Christmas this year, and it was a blast!

Someone knows that Santa made a visit.

Bubbles! My new favorite!

I guess instead of a real car this one will have to do (for now)

Amanda got the Kathy Griffin book!

Matt enjoys his gifts over a tasty eggnog.

Fancy tights!

For the rest of the Christmas shots, including our visit to the Guarino's, check out the full album.

'Twas the Night Before Christmas

2009-12-24T20:49:00.002-05:00

The holiday season continues, and we're so excited to celebrate our first Christmas with young Theo. We got a little tree, and thanks to Mom, we have hung our stockings in Brooklyn in anticipation of a visit from Santa.

Following the Plattsmier family tradition, we each opened one gift tonight, Christmas Eve. Enjoy some pics, and Happy Holidays, everyone out there!

Theodore got his first ornament, an engraved silver bell.

Matt received a can of tomatoes, which is a very long story he'd be glad to share with you.

Amanda received a bona fide certificate entitling her to Matt's infamous chili, which has been threatened but never materialized in the 4 years we have been together. Hopefully we won't have to end up in small claims court over it.

Hanukkah with Luvie & Grandpa

2009-12-23T21:49:00.000-05:00

Theo spent some Hanukkah quality time at Luvie & Grandpa's this season.

Lookin' good!

Mind meld

Enjoy yourself 'Manda!

And for fun, Luvie gave Theo his first taste of applesauce! Let's see how he likes it:

Theodore is 6 months old!

2009-12-17T21:07:00.003-05:00

As a big 6 monther, Theo is starting to try out some solid foods for the first time. Luckily Uncle Dave was in from Texas and got in on the action. The reception of the foods has been lukewarm so far, but we're sure he'll find something to like sooner or later.

Trying out a bib

David and Goliath - only in this case, David IS Goliath

Finally some got in!

A whole lot to be thankful for...

2009-12-02T08:41:00.002-05:00

We are so blessed this year. It wasn't difficult to come up with what to be thankful for at this year's Thanksgiving table. A happy, healthy, wonderful little baby has to be one of the greatest gifts you can ask for.

In addition to having Plattsmiers in from Texas, lots of delicious food, and family time with the Gonsky-Plattsmier crew (see pictures here), we had another eventful occasion to celebrate - Theodore started crawling! His Grammy figured out that bare knees helped him get the traction he needed to get on the move. Check it out!

Theodore's First Halloween : The Strongman

2009-10-31T20:46:00.008-04:00

This was Theo's first ever Halloween, and as you could have guessed, Amanda went for it on his costume. In Theo's first few weeks we loved to admire the baby rolls on his arms and legs, joking they looked like giant muscles.

It was then that we realized a circus strongman would be a great costume for the youngster. This image became our inspiration:

[Our Inspiration]

Amanda found the right material for the suit and broke out the needle and thread. For the dumbbell I took a baby rattle and covered in black electrical tape (natch). And here, ladies and gentlemen, we present to you Theodore the Strongman:

[Theo the Strongman]

We couldn't have been more pleased!

One side note though, after seeing the following photo which shows Amanda's handywork with Theo's moustache, we couldn't help but see the resemblance to a certain eccentric painter. What do you think?

Pre-crawl

2009-10-31T10:22:00.001-04:00

Theo is about four and a half months old now, but apparently he can't wait to start getting on the move! It looks like it's going to be any day now.

First Lover's Spat

2009-10-21T21:38:00.004-04:00

It's getting cooler, and little Teddy needs to keep cozy. Check it out!

And a little bonus one that's just plain cute.

Theo's room on Project Nursery!

2009-10-12T17:04:00.007-04:00

Amanda & I really enjoyed the process of designing Theodore's nursery. It was a challenge to make such a small space comfortably hold all the items we'd need while also being aesthetically pleasing and in keeping with the design sense of the rest of our apartment.

Through planning his room Amanda found all these great baby design blogs that helped direct us in our decision making. So once we were done we decided to submit photos of Theo's room, and it was picked up by Project Nursery!

Check their profile of Theo's nursery, featuring some of these choice photos below.

And here are a few extra detail shots of some of our favorite features of the room that were not included, including the wild Jonathan Adler light fixture.

Thanks to Molly for the beautiful mobile and to Melissa for the lovely and unique Japanese kokeshi. And of course, our thanks to Moomer again for creating the incredible crib bedding that is such a focal point of the room.

Young Theo's adventures outside Brooklyn continue! We spent a wonderful weekend with Aunt Sis, Uncle Dr. Ascot, and cousins Shiloh and Tallulah in East Hampton. Below are a few highlights. Please feel free to view the whole album here.

Look at me folks - I can roll over! Next stop: crawling!

Let's laugh

2009-09-06T09:45:00.002-04:00

We went to Storm King yesterday for a little sculpture & nature. However, Theo seemed to enjoy singing and laughing in the car more than anything.

One tech note: Some folks have been unable to see the videos we've uploaded to Vimeo, so we're switching to YouTube. You can check our page to see some of the ones you may have missed.

The Afterbath

What is it about babies after their bath? They are so irresistible!

A Visit to the Hamptons

2009-08-17T15:44:00.004-04:00

We visited the grandparents and had a beautiful weekend in East Hampton. Bright sunshine, clean air, and lobster rolls - who could ask for more? Thanks, Luvie and Grandpa, for a great visit!

The eponymous specialty - yum!!

You want it, you got it: The Smile!

2009-08-02T09:51:00.001-04:00

These past two weeks have brought smiles to young Theodore. Yes, we have devolved into those stereotypical parents making ridiculous noises and cooing to elicit his smiles.

Look here at the final product and you'll see why we feel no shame.

That's Auntie Rebecca getting in on the action. Man that's good stuff.

Theodore's First Swim from Matthew Lipstein on Vimeo.

Going to Texas not only means grandparents and BBQ, it also means pools! We took the opportunity to give Theo his first taste of the good life.

First trip to Texas!

2009-07-25T09:19:00.009-04:00

The Lipsteins traveled down to Fort Worth to visit friends and family. 5-week-old Theo got to ride on a plane, visit with lots of adoring fans, and have his first, all-important swim in a pool. Grammy and Grumpy even threw him a party! The full photo-set can be found right here. Here are some highlights:

2009-07-19T11:24:00.003-04:00

Got back late last night from Theo's first trip to Texas. Look for a big update including choice pics and videos in a day or two, but in the meantime enjoy this tasty appetizer.

I spend most of my day making sure Amanda doesn't eat Theodore's feet. Thanks for the pic Maria!

Bath time for boy

2009-07-04T21:45:00.002-04:00

This week Theodore got his first taste of bath time. Granted, we were setup in the kitchen sink, but he didn't seem to mind. Now he's squeaky clean!

Rub a dub dub 'Manda!

Wax on Wax off.

You've got to use a tiny washcloth to "get in there" as Amy says.

This house is clean.

You're eyes are getting sleepy...

2009-07-03T14:14:00.005-04:00

Take a swing with the boy. Don't be surprised if your snoozing by the end of this video.

I'm ready for my close-up!

I had fun playing with the digital SLR today snapping photos of my favorite subject. Here are a few gems.

Some guests and some partying!

Theodore is now officially 2 weeks old, and making his way through this third blockbuster week.

As usual, he's had many callers:

Rebecca & Aya bonded with the boy. Aya's teaching Theo some moves!

Zach & Carrie were in from LA and paid T a visit.

This week was also Amanda's birthday, and we celebrated on Saturday with a b-day picnic. The rain was even kind enough to go away for a few hours.

Amanda shows us how to do the birthday dance.

Sophia, look out! There's a baby on your chest!

Well played.

Like father, like son.

Uncle Dr. Ascot is not afraid of the burp cloth.

More to come, stay tuned!

So much rain this month. Good thing it doesn't damper Theodore's attitude!

Just for the record...

My son has amazing sideburns.

Happy Father's Day...

Everything is great with Theodore. He had a clean bill of health from the pediatrician on Monday morning. She commented that he looked like a one-month old! In his 5 days of life, Matt has already snapped over 800 photos. Here's a small batch.
