Mid-winter New York City weekend. Saturday brunch out with pal Evan (below) at delicious little Prune, where Milo enjoyed his papa's tongue omelet more than Mama did; a subway ride that didn't even disturb a nap; a Sunday play date and a visit to the favorite park, now covered in snow, for swinging and learning how to pelt Mama with snowballs (thanks, Papa).

And the requisite celebrity mention... Cold sidewalk. Line for brunch. One-hour-plus wait. Maggie Gyllenhaal's mom (at least, we thought it was her mom) found Milo to be a dazzling conversationalist, and the little guy himself, no stranger to the stars, ran right over to Miss Maggie and cooed and giggled and danced around on a sub-freezing Saturday afternoon, and she chatted and waved and smiled right back.
We hope he's not getting spoiled. Though Milo was more interested in his dog, Ethan Hawke still waved at him (and granted Milo's Mama a nod and half-smile) on an 8th Avenue pass-by.
