New York City

This past week my mom and the kids and I went to NYC to visit my sister Caroline for a week. It was my first time in NYC and it was so fun!
Here is Eliza at FAO Scharwtz, a really cool toy store. The boys were playing ball with an employee and Eliza was making a grand mess including sitting on the shelf and throwing all these elephants behind her.
First time wearing this jacket, oh so cute!!

Silly cousins wearing their sisters hats. They had so much fun together.
Eliza and Claire.
This was at the fun toy store again, the boys loved it! It's a 2 foot wide piano that you can walk on that lights up and plays as you walk on it.
Eliza loved it too.
Rockerfeller and skating rink.
Grand Central Station.
Huge full size ferris wheel inside of Toys R Us. So fun! We rode in a potato head car thing.
Times Square.
Caroline, this one is for you! Bwahahaha. Love ya.
Cousin love and chewy cheeks.

Really fun candy store, Dylan's. There was candy everywhere, the boys were in heaven!
This was my all time favorite part of the trip. Us girls went to the musical Wicked. It was AMAZING. The strawberry cheesecake at a popular restaurant after was very good as well. We saw the temple on our 3.5 mile walk back to the apartment.
Gorgeous cathedral.
I feel like I lost 10 pounds on the trip. We walked everywhere which was so so nice. Went on subways and taxis a ton which Ethan absolutely loved. Caroline and I went running almost every morning with the boys right on the Hudson river. Nice, nice trip! Thanks Caroline!

It sounds like you had a blast. I have never been to NYC but I think that it would be way fun to visit.
