We're attempting to raise our baby - a boy - for one year on everything borrowed, some things blue. We're hoping to borrow, rent or buy used everything from baby clothes to furniture to diapers. We're first time parents, living in New York City, and hope this little experiment will help us enter parenthood with a bit more awareness and a lot more humility.

Continues to be a fan of the fan

The Everything Borrowed Baby has always loved ceiling fans - now he loves being fanned, too. Thank you, Aunt Akis!

Hiking with David Harris



So, we went to Bear Mountain with David Harris and saw...a BEAR! It was crazy. We were hiking along and then this big group of Korean tourists starting yelling at us and we looked 20 feet in front of us and there was a BEAR. It was insane. But David shooed it a way and we were fine. Here are some pics of EBB sitting in his first ever forward facing carseat (Ella's), eating bagels before the hike and finally, enjoying the hike. There are some bear pics, but she/he's in the distance at that point.

Scooting to a seated position!

Within days of arriving in CA for a much needed vacation, the EBB learned to sit up on his own. Yeahhhh!! Nothing like the CA sunshine to inspire greatness.

Slip sliding away


After a post birthday party nap, Danny and I took the EBB to the park for a little fun. Love the pics of him on the swing - wee! And the video of him on the slide:
