Or, rather, see you soon! I’ve decided it’s time to say goodbye to Baby Mine and bring some of its family-focus over to Hither & Thither. Now that Hudson is here, exploring the city and beyond with us, it’s hard to know which personal stories belong where. And then, let’s be honest, there’s the matter […]

We’re packing up for a family road trip. We leave tomorrow morning for the Berkshires; we’ll be staying in Lenox. Hudson has been able to fall asleep on our last two car rides, so I’m crossing my fingers for some peaceful drives through displays of colorful leaves. I’ve been composing and editing a packing list […]

Today is a big day… today we head to the airport and board a flight to California. It will be the first of many flights for Hudson and I’m glad we’re starting early, but I’d be lying if I said we weren’t nervous. The fear of nonstop crying (unlikely) and being the object of fellow […]

We’re headed off today for our very last getaway before the baby arrives and “just-us-two” becomes “just-us-three!” (Although I think the real “babymoon” will come after he arrives–I can’t imagine anything more worthy of celebrating!) A friend’s mom has lent us her cottage in Cape Cod as a congratulatory gift and we are both beyond […]

Those who know Aron and I from Hither and Thither know that we love to travel. We’ve actually been incredibly lucky to have taken three trips since the start of my pregnancy, and there’s one more to come. But I can’t say that choosing good destinations when you’re expecting is easy. Even as I write […]

Aron and I started Hither and Thither, a travel and lifestyle blog about our lives in New York (and elsewhere) a few years ago. Now, as we anticipate our first baby, I decided I wanted a separate space for baby and kiddo-related things: to share thoughts on pregnancy and parenting, indulge shopping and design interests, […]
