nyc

we had zero plans of going anywhere this weekend... then saturday morning bobby woke up and said, "hey, there are 5 seats to new york, wanna go?" well duhh. we love the city so i was all of this little trip! we got to new york saturday night at 6 and then left sunday night at 6... yup! 24 hours in new york! what'd we do?


as soon as we got in we headed straight to our favorite chinese food on 3rd and 88th called wok 88. we were all a little tired/exhausted but i've never seen either of my children eat so much food!! seriously, they loved it. after dinner we headed to our hotel... i hadn't ever stayed in a hotel in manhattan before, we usually stay at someones apartment. it was pretty nice and was in a neighborhood i'd never been to! we absolutely fell in love with the area and wandered around the next morning day dreaming about the day we get to move to the island.


honestly, sunday morning was SOOOO cold! i was completely regretting going, but didn't dare say it. we started off by going down to a bakery, a MUST in the city for breakfast. and then walking to the river since it was only a block from our hotel.


you can't go to new york without seeing the freedom tower... no matter how many times you've been! this was also the moment i was really starting to regret going. i was freezing. boston was freezing. i'm sure bobby and beckett were freezing, they just never said so... luckily, in the sun it was much easier to deal with. and as the day went on it started to get a lot better!


there is nothing like shopping in new york on 5th avenue. i have yet to experience anything like it! so maybe that's one reason i love the city so much? ehh... that's okay... boston was in heaven modeling all his new clothes and beckett loved all the attention she got everywhere we went!


if you haven't ridden the new york subways, they are incredible... it's practically an underground city. except when you are carrying 2 kids + a stroller and you see a huge stretch and you think to yourself, 'what the hell (excuse the language) were we thinking?' but all in all? we had a GREAT 24 hours. it was so worth it. we had been wondering if we could handle the city with 2 kids, we definitely can! especially with bobby and i as a team! we rock! until next time...
