So Busy, So Tired

Sorry it's been so long. We've been busy and there are LOTS of photos to share...but I'll only pick a few to post (between the three of us we have about 400 photos of the last 2 days!!).


Me and Jen with Chris Columbus in Central Park.



Q as an "alien" at music class with Grandpa and Auntie Jen!



I really wish there was a FAO closer as Q is showing she's as happy as a kid in a toy store! So many toys to play with here! Above is the story time throne and below is the play kitchen set. She REALLY enjoyed the play kitchen...maybe Santa will have to buy one for her this year . . .



Took a Water Taxi cruise today. Q wasn't allowed outside, but she sure enjoyed the climbing on the seats and could see decently out the dirty windows of the boat!


We're halfway through the third visit of the past 2 weeks.

And we're tired.



Really tired.

But Q has 'survived' two afternoons out on the town. We left home at about 11 yesterday, headed to music class, then it took us OVER TWO HOURS to get to Manhattan (yay not knowing about our stop closures for the D...and well, since there were people on the track, the train was moving at about 20% speed through Brooklyn). We ate lunch at some place that claims to have NY famous cheesecake (all places seem to claim that) and then walked the south side of Central Park to the MET...only to find out the MET closes at 5:30...and we got there at 4:15. So we warmed up, shopped the mini-gift shop and out to window shop on Madison and 5th Avenues. We were still stuffed from lunch, but picked up some sandwiches at about 8:30 to eat on the subway ride home (that only took about 45 minutes). And today was great too, getting out about noon again after Q's morning nap. We took a water taxi tour around parts of town on the water and headed to get BBQ and then to the MoMA (free admission).
