Well now, firstly, we are still in New York! We said goodbye to the lovely people at the Westin after a week and headed to Madison Avenue where we had rented a 2 bedroomed serviced apartment.
At first, everything seemed alright but as the first week there progressed, we noticed it just was not child friendly in the least! Low lying furniture, sharp corners, mixed in with eye level wall plugs and slippery floors all added up to two things - cuts and bruises! Anyone who didn't know me would wonder about my ability to be a mother at all when they saw Ruben proudly sporting a black eye!
So we moved! Back to another hotel, but this time it was The Regency on Park Avenue where we were allocated a 2 bedroomed suite which in itself is wonderful and here we remain to this day!
The children and I have visited and purchased from many a shop in NYC but we have to admit that we are now just keen to settle down back into normality although we will complain about that soon enough I am sure! We have spend a few days exploring central Park which is on our door step and we are enjoying mooching around the Sunday Markets.
Robina joined us for a few weeks and was a welcome visitor. It was lovely to have some adult company although I think if she had stayed any longer we would have bankrupted ourselves!
You will notice not much has been said about Rufus. Simple fact - he's been working stupid hours! Infact, most hours!
However, there is some light in the tunnel beginning to seep through - looks like we are finally LA bound a week from today! Have to say though, that I will only believe it when we touchdown there!
Love to all
Ax
