Well, first some news. In a previous post, we announced the upcoming arrival of the newest addition to the MoseleyWorld family. Thanks to the marvels of modern medicine, we are excited to be able to share that Saxon will soon be a big sister to her little sister. ETA: August 16.

Carey and I just returned from a long weekend trip to New York. Saxon spent her first nights without Mom or Dad. According to Carey’s mom, aka Mimi, we missed Saxon a lot more than she missed us. I guess that’s good, since we did miss her a bunch.

For Christmas, Carey gave me tickets to see Spring Awakening again. We saw the Tony winning musical in September, but I’ll admit being somewhat guilty to being “obsessed” (a term Carey has used to describe my feelings about SA) with Spring Awakening.

Spring Awakening the musical, is based on a 1891 controversial play, a coming-of-age story which was scandalous in its day. Duncan Sheik (of the hit song “I am barely breathing” fame) wrote the incredible music. The 2nd row seats were awesome! To see a little about Spring Awakening click the link to see a short video. Headed to New York? Don’t miss Spring Awakening!


Also joining us at Spring Awakening, Miss Lindsay Lohan! Who knew? We saw the paparazzi, but missed LiLo. :(

We schlepped all over Manhattan, from Wall Street to 110th. Highlights included seeing the funky new art at the Whitney Biennial, grazing in Chinatown (where dumplings are 5 for $1), shopping at H&M. We had lots of great food, including meals at Fatty Crab in the Meatpacking District, Dim Sum Go Go on the Lower East Side and housemade pasta at Roberto Passon.

The day after we returned, Saxon was sitting on our bed with Carey. When I sat down, Saxon reclined, smiled and looked up to say, simply, “Mama and Dada.” Ahhh…
