The three of us just spent a lovely weekend in New York City with dear friends of ours. My old high school pal, Erin, and her hubby, Charles, have an adorable 21-month old, Baird. He and Emmeline had loads of fun together. I was so impressed by the way Baird shared his space, toys and highchair with Emmeline. They had one little scuffle, but did very well otherwise. Emmeline was very entertained all weekend and seemed to enjoy her first trip to the Big Apple. We spent most of our time in NYC on the upper west side, walking through Central Park and Strawberry Fields and visited the American Museum of Natural History and FAO Schwarz. Emmeline especially liked FAO Schwarz as she found a wooden shopping cart to push around the store. We ate NYC style pizza, Thai food, Gray's Papya hotdogs, honey roasted nuts, the most amazing cupcakes from The Magnolia Bakery and Erin's yummy vegan cookies. I bought a piece of pottery at a craft show outside of the museum and Paul and Emmeline both got a pair of Crocs! We had a wonderful time and can't wait for our friends to visit us in DE.
Enjoy our pictures!
Friday night: Emmeline is very glad to be
out of the car and in NYC.
