New York, New York

Well we finally managed to get out of the house as a family this past week. We celebrated Spring break for Todd by driving to New York with our friends the Cranes. It was a great trip despite the stops along the way to clean vomit out of car seats. On Tuesday we got to our hotel in NJ around 2pm and then took the ferry across to New York... Kya loved the big boat and thought the lady holding the light was really cool. We saw 1st hand the hustle and bustle of NY as we made our way to ground zero, which was all we had time for that 1st day. On day 2 in NY we decided to drive into Manhattan to save time on traveling up the island. We got to drive through time square which was neat, walk around Central Park, visit FAO Schwartz, see all the money spots down 5th Ave and visited Rockefeller Center, we were gonna make a stop at the Disney store but on our way back by all the girls had passed out. I would have to say FAO Schwartz was the big hit, there was a Princess downstairs that read to Kya and Lexi, Mia found a whole section of Diggers which she was pretty excited about (Construction is her newest LOVE), and none of the girls wanted to leave the giant piano. All in all it was a good trip and Todd and I can't wait to go back kidless so we aren't hauling dead wait around for 7 hours. MVP of the trip would have to be my wonderful husband Todd for handling ALL the driving, putting up with my 2 cents, cleaning up all the vomit, and always carrying at least one kid on his back.
