The Not-Barbie

As babies grow older, they often get bored with toys they once loved. Our little angel's new favorite objet? It's the "heirloom"--also known as the statue Grandma Rosalie and Grandpa Ed Feldman gave us for our wedding, currently parked against a wall in our 500 square-foot New York City apartment. Interesting choice of plaything, Piera!

The Reader

Piera is quite the connoisseur of literature. Her tastes run from Glamour (tearing up glossy ads of fashion models is so fun) to Eric Carle.

Psst. Don't you just love little P's new Tea Collection PJs?

Pumpkin Lover

Recently, our neighbors gave Piera her first pumpkin (they grew it themselves!) and Mommy bought some miniature ones to serve risotto out of. In the process, Piera discovered that playing with pumpkins is a lot like playing with balls--you can roll them, chew on them, slam them on the ground. All fun stuff. Wait until she gets her first taste of pumpkin bread!

New 'Do

Piera's hair has gotten so long that we have to do a ponytail or else everything's in her eyes. Problem is, Mommy is not the best at doing hair. Any tips?

Matt Damon Is A Nice Guy

Today in Fort Tryon Park, Matt Damon (yes, the actor--he's shooting a movie there) admired Piera and posed for a photo with her! She slept through the whole thing....

Isn't he handsome?

Happy Halloween

Our little darling's first Halloween was not the most exciting (only three trick-or-treaters—whah!) but Piera greatly enjoyed eating Dada's stethoscope while not posing for the camera.
