Genius holiday plan!
What’s makes me very happy at the moment; more than a few hours of consecutive sleep, looking at a pavement and not thinking that it would be nice to lie down and have a little sleep on it, family time and, thinking about our upcoming holiday. This is a holiday that we’ve been talking about for months and are badly in need of.
So, after we spent A LOT of precious time on the computer scrolling and scrolling, having 1 million tabs open and giving myself numb figures, where did we decide to go? ….. Absolutely nowhere. We think this is actually quite a genius plan and we’re quite chuffed with ourselves. So why did we decide this?
- Let’s be realistic, when you go on holiday with children it’s a bit of a hard slog. Baby Sas currently just wants to crawl on the floor and eat everything in her path; she’s basically a very cute hoover. And Scarlett has decided that she doesn't want to sleep. So how do you find somewhere that caters to a hoover and an insomniac? Sas smiles at everyone but as soon as you hand her over she screams quite dramatically, so creches probably aren���t going to work. Then the idea of, trying to all sleep in the so-called ‘family room’, trying to work out how to feed them dinner when dinner starts well after their bedtime, carrying ten thousand bags with you so you have everything you need etc.. just isn’t particularly appealing. Or, if you do an airbnb style hols, you still have the endless rounds of cleaning, cooking and tidying up as you would at home. In the nicest possible way what’s the point of spending $$$ when really it’s the same old shit just with a different view?
- It’s also bit overwhelming deciding where to go because this country is bloody big and is also near lots of other places like the Caribbean, Mexico, Canada etc.. Every time you hone in on an option another 50 pop up. There are people we want to see which makes making plans even more complicated! How do you decide what to do and who to see?
So, apart from a couple of day trips, we’re super excited to instead spend the time at ‘home’ and take it in turns to take time off ALL TO OURSELVES. I have no idea what i’ll do yet but it’s pretty thrilling. I could perhaps do a spa afternoon (holy crap!), a trip to the shops, a museum visit (less excited about this one), catch a show, a daytime sleep (the dream!), some kind of exercise (…nice in theory), or SIT in a cafe for more than five minutes and slowly drink a drink. I think that’s going to be so much better than going away somewhere. Just saying that word makes me want to lie down and sleep for a hundred years.
So what’s been good about NYC these past few weeks?
The fall
27C in October. Ok so that was a particularly hot day but generally it’s still been pretty warm. I haven’t seen the picture postcard fall trees yet but we have gone apple and pumpkin picking (we’re still working our way through the four bowls of apples we picked). And halloween is definitely on its way which makes me happy. I love this time of year back home but over here it’s like it’s on steroids.
Polite pot people
There’s A LOT of weed that gets smoked in our neighbourhood; did it get legalised without me noticing? Pretty much every day we breathe in wafts of it which makes me pretty mad especially because it’s often in the playground. WHY, WHY, WHY??! But I have started noticing that sometimes someone will say ‘sorry’ when we walk past them. You don’t really expect someone sitting around smoking in a sort of ‘gang’ to say that. It’s not ok for my children to be breathing it in everyday and getting high (?) but at least they’re being polite about it I guess.
Getting fit
I’m an expert at getting the bus. It’s really bloody hard when they're often very busy and you have to collapse the pram and carry it while holding onto two children. I really feel it’s a bit of an achievement. I might not be able to say I climbed the career ladder over here but I can say I managed to ride NYC buses with little children. I think that should be something I can put on my cv. But, what i’ve realised (after quite a few very bad journeys) is that getting any kind of transport after 3 pm is a no-go. It’s just too packed. So unless I want to be trapped in ‘pot-ville’ I’m going to have to walk to get back from anywhere. Today I walked 60 blocks to get home. I’m going to get very, very fit. And sore feet. And possibly also a tonned bum :)

20 hours of DOING something is more valuable than 20 hours of THINKING about doing something. Read that again! Things that you are afraid to do are most likely the hidden actions you need to take to rise to the next level in life. In order for you to stop thinking about your fitness goals and doing is all about mindset, first. Here are a few tips for you: 1. Stop saying you're not good at a certain exercise (you're not good at it becuase you're telling yourself you're not good at it) 2. Stop telling yourself you've never been in shape (It doesn’t matter what you’ve been before today. That mindset will stop you in your tracks) 3. Stop saying you can't do that workout (You can try anything. There is nothing you can't do. Modify if necessary) 4. Stop saying that you can't workout cuase of guilt- you need to do EVERYTHING for your spouse and/or children (not taking time for your health is selfish and detrimental to your physical, mental and wellness) 5. Stop saying that you don't have the time to exercise (it's not that you lack time... you lack motivation, self discipline and willpower) J.U.M.P. aka Take Action Check out the Rope Is Dope Club today. text CLUB to 718-504-2192 or go to http://bit.ly/ropeisdopeclub2 #jumprope #jumpropeworkout #midtownmanhattan #blackwomendoworkout #timesquarenewyork #newyorkcitylife #nycmoms #tsq #34thstreetnyc #fitmomlife #oolafitness #parentlife #newyorkmoms #makeitfunnyc #jumpropeswag #newyorkfitness #fitnessover40 #rebuildyourlife #michelleobama #afrogirlfitness #activelifestylecoach #fitnessmom #rebuildyourlifemonth #beginnerworkout #momswhoworkout #over40women #jumpropeforwomen #plussizefitness #momover40 #JumpropeIsDope https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ6W5lyn62I/?utm_medium=tumblr

Making new friends; do children help or hinder?
It feels like a long three months since we got here (how can it only be three months) but we’re still smiling. Sort of :) I know there’s a lot to still discover and good stuff to look forward to like the beautiful fall, halloween, thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. We also have a bunch of visitors coming which is the best; we’ve never been so popular!
Making friends
Everyone said it would be so easy to make friends over here because you meet people through your children. This is sort of true and it’s been really nice meeting new people but it’s also had its challenges because you’re not just trying to find friends for you, you’re trying to find friends for them too. As much as you might like a mum who has a little newborn it’s really hard hanging out. While they can sit about and snuggle with their babe, if you have a crawler or a walker your conversations go along the lines of, ‘hi!’, ‘wait a minute I have to go fetch..’, ‘what were you saying?’, ‘don’t throw yourself off the climbing frame!’, ‘don’t put the dirty plaster you just found on the floor in your mouth!’, ‘oh wait what were you saying?’. And then even if they do have children/child roughly the same age, do they like your child/children? Scarlett is going through a phase of wanting to choose her own clothes and the other day for a new playdate she decided to wear a pink sparkly fancy-dress dress, pink shoes and a pink hair band. This was after she’d stained her whole face with some red lip stick she’d found. And then she had a tantrum when I tried to take her previously pretty much unloved doll away from her. Her new playmate, who’d turned up in cool monochrome clothes and a sassy haircut, was unsurprisingly totally unimpressed. She was too cool for me let alone for little Miss Barbara Cartland look-a-like. When you don’t hear from that person again does that mean that they didn't like you or your daughter? In this instance I’m going to blame it on little miss crazy .. I was on my A-game on that playdate! Not a twitchy eye in sight and I managed to avoid talking about prams or bus routes the entire time.
Bus routes
Talking of bus routes….(I have great bus chat). I’ve found a good one and it’s been the excitement of the week. It gets me to good places within 30 minutes and it’s opened up new playgrounds and new museums. Life changing! I love you M5 bus route!
Awesome DUMBO - ‘Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass’
The best thing about Manhattan is leaving Manhattan and looking back at the view. I don’t know why lots of tall buildings together makes such an impressive sight but it really does. We had a lovely day out (except for the bit when I lost Angus and his phone stopped working and I had to walk round and round pram-less holding a screaming baby. That bit wasn't fun. At all). It’s definitely somewhere we’ll be visiting again though. It feels very Manhattan..even though you’re not in Manhattan.
WTF
Cold brew. I thought i’d found the perfect drink. You don't have to have milk in it (so avoided the problem of there being a lack of alternatives to cows milk) and it didn’t make you overheat in the boiling weather. But then I got the shakes, the eye twitching got a bit out of control and I started being slightly more weird and wired than normal, (I really got into role play in the fire engine in the children’s museum; wasn’t until I heard another parent telling her kid that ‘the lady will be finished soon’ that I realised that there were no children actually playing with me anymore). I thought perhaps I’d reached another level of sleep deprivation but it turns out cold brew is actually 2.5 times stronger than normal coffee. So i’ve had to ditch it to avoid becoming a bit scary. Any crazy behaviour from now on is just down to lack of sleep (thank you Scarlett for developing some cruel sleep phobia just as baby Sas starts to sleep through), and also to spending all day everyday with two small people whose interests are eating their own poo and dancing to ‘wiggly woo’ over and over and over and over ….

Nothing excites children more than seeing not one, but two rainbows! What would you do if your children are incessantly asking you to drive to the end of the rainbow, being super convinced there is a pot of gold waiting for you there? 🤔 Let's assume you are also trying to get home fast to get dinner ready... 😅 . . . . . . . . . . #doublerainbow #kidswereamazed #amazement #leprechaun #potofgold #endofrainbow #fairytales #earlychildhood #childimagination #kidsimagination #askmommy #goaskdad #trickyquestion #excitedkids #mommingit #californiamom #texasmom #washingtonmom #newyorkmom #instagram #natureisamazing #tworainbows #rainandsunshine #kidsrequest #kidsquestions #daycarelife #childcare #preschooler #kindergartener #momdaily https://www.instagram.com/p/BvlFQBnANC9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jibzd4miqdur
