Thinking Inside the Box

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

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

What's Happening?

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.

Almost there!

Snowday!

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.

Double Feature

Two new videos from everyone's favorite leading man. Word on the streets is he's a lock for the Oscar this year.




Some Recent Gems


Looking good in the morning light.



Whoa! There's a whole world under this thing!



I don't care if there is blueberry on my face. My hair looks GOOD.

Rattle & Yum

Here are some shots from two of Theo's favorite activities: Rockin' and Mawin'. Of course, he prefers to do this with the ones he loves.

NYE 09 with the Halpern-Ranzers

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.


The next generation of The Bus Stop DJs!


Katie & Shanz came by in the morning to feed Theo a maraca.


Meredith & Elias wishing you a great new year.

A big ol' batch of Theo

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

Theodore's First Snowfall


What on Earth is in this room?



Training to be a Stand-Up Comic (or maybe just training to stand up)





Daddy's Showing me Stuff


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.

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas

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

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.
