This past weekend I flew to NYC to visit Paige and family. My awesome neighbors Alan and Bev watched the kids Friday night and Saturday night they spent with the Peck's. The kids had a great weekend although they kept Beverly awake for a while in the middle of the night.
We had the best time in NYC. Sonja took the bus up from DC with baby Kaleigh, and we just spent the weekend hanging out and getting in the Christmas spirit. It was freezing cold, I have definately gotten thin blood and get very cold easily. But Sonja and I got dressed and went for a quick run in Central Park Saturday morning. The rest of Saturday was spent shopping and to look at all the Christmas decorations. Oh yes, we went jeans shopping because I wanted a really nice pair of jeans. My budget of $100-150 was easily exceeded, but that wasn't the bad part. It was hearing from a snooty New Yorker in one boutiqe that they didn't carry my size! I didn't realize I was that big!!
We went to Union Square and bought the neatest gifts, ABC homestore just to look, and finished by going by Rockerfeller Center to fight the crowd. After shopping all day we went home had a glass of wine or two, dropped kaleigh off with babysitter Nick ( he was a trooper) and went to a nearby Wine and Taps bar. While we were sitting by the window which was covered with a nice wreath it started snowing....so nice.
