The {Mommy} Life: Things to do in the City with Kids

Being a Mommy in New York City means you have to be a lot more creative when finding spots for you and your kids to go play for the day. If you’ve been living in New York for a while, you’ve already been to the typical spots, and like us, might appreciate something new and fresh to explore as a family. I’ve put together a list of some unique places for you and your kids to visit and have a day full of fun.

A Perfect Day

Last week, my friend Sonya and our family decided to venture from our Southhamtpon homes to the beaches of Montauk with the kids. After dancing at the Tracy Anderson Watermill studio we took a drive of about 45 minutes to have lunch at Navy Beach Restaurant and had a delicious meal there with our kids.

The Chicken and The Egg

One of our agents at Mark David & Company is starting a new adventure in life and I can’t wait to see the result! Buena Batiste, along with her sister Kenniece Webber, have written a smart and fun children’s book called The Chicken and The Egg.

The characters in The Chicken and The Egg debate which one should go first by pleading not their own, but each other’s cases.

Celebrate: 4th of July Week with the Family

We are already enjoying our holiday in the Hamptons, but no matter what you’re doing this week, we hope it’s full of great summer memories for your whole family! Here are some photos of what we’ve been up to since we arrived here. One of my favorite things so far has been our relaxing visit to Wölffer Estate Vineyard.

Photo Album: Hamptons Weekend

What a weekend! Summer is in full swing and now every weekend feels like a mini-vacation. We spent last weekend in the Hamptons; splashing in the pool, visiting with friends, celebrating a birthday, and of course I made a stop at Tracy Anderson’s Water Mill location for a dance class.

Neon, Neon

If you’re a Pinner, a shopper, or a style blog reader, you’ve surely noticed that neons are everywhere this year! Chic summer pants, hot bags, and neon jewelry are everywhere. But how about neons for kids? I love these ideas for neon modern home decor in your kids rooms, or neon party themes for a bright and playful summer birthday.

Summer is Here!

There’s something special about summer in New York… It’s like the busy city takes a deep breath and relaxes just a little. The styles on the street are lighter and brighter, windows are open, the parks are dotted with picnickers, and everyone is looking for the nearest beach or pool!
