Christmas in NYC



This is a picture of Steve and Elijah on the streets of NYC. The two loves of my life - aww, so cute!!!

Every year my (Christi's) family goes to New York for Christmas. We stay for about 3-4 days and this year due to our new addition to the clan, the days FLEW by!!! We had a wonderful time and the weather was great - not too cold or rainy. Elijah did a great job - being super flexible. We used the stroller and the Baby Bjorn, and he slept most of his time in NYC away! I guess that is the benefit of taking him at such a young age when all they do is sleep, eat and need diaper changes. ;) He did have one night that he didn't sleep too well in the hotel room - I think he got his day and night confused that day cause he slept so much during the day. But, the next few nights he did really well! He really is such a good baby and really only wakes up once a night - we are blessed! But, it truly is amazing how the time in NY went by so quickly. We are usually ready to leave by the time it is time to leave (or even sometimes a little before because we would have done everything already). This time we didn't have nearly enough time to do everything. Some of the things we DID get to do were: walk around Time Sqaure, go shopping in the Manhattan Mall, eat at Virgil's (YUMMY!!!), go to the broadway play of "Annie" - and it was GREAT!, and go shopping in SoHo (could have spent 2 days down there!!!). We had a great time and are so thankful to our family for a wonderful vacation!
