I Am Star Struck!

I am a star struck NYC Dad! I was on the Path Train over the weekend coming back from Hoboken, and shared the train car with Dan Lauria (the Dad from Wonder Years) and Ray Abruzzo (Little Carmine from Sopranos). Not your "A-list" celebrities, but a cool sighting.

Toting your baby around this summer could get even more exciting for you stay at home parents! About a month ago, I was strolling our son by our local pizza place, Roma’s Pizza, on the Upper East Side. I noticed all of the Haddads Film Trucks parked on the block and the pizza shop was lit up for filming the movie, "Did You Hear About the Morgans?" starring Sara Jessica Parker & Hugh Grant. I am a major 'rubber necker' and needed to investigate the action.

Julie Gordon of am New York, published an article titled Sets and the City over the weekend, sharing a guide to the movies filming in NYC this summer including all of their set locations. Julie says, "most New Yorkers try to play it cool when they pass a mess of crew members unloading trucks in their neighborhood (not me). But for those who want to indulge their inner celebrity stalker, here’s a guide to movies filming this summer in NYC."

Anyone have any cool sightings toting your kid around?

  2. We live in Lower Manhattan and the stars are out and about all the time. That being said, my biggest star sighting was then-Senator Barack Obama at La Guardia. This was well before he decided to run for President and he was alone in the airport reading his newspaper. I was traveling alone with our son, and my life's biggest regret may turn out to be that I didn't ask the future President to take a picture with my baby.
