NY Girls Back in Georgia

42nd St. Love

J labeled us NY Girls this morning. Tee hee!

She loved NYC!!!! Better yet, she was able to hold it together just like a normal kid. I even called the AT last night because I was so excited that she did so well and had the best time!!! Yay J!!!!


We even exceeded my expectations. Our driver is a native New Yorker and he took a liking to J and made sure that she had the best time!!!! Here's our list of accomplishments:


Friday:

Broadway

Lincoln Center
Central Park Strawberry Fields
Look Sheri: (your reward for comments!)

A quick tour of Grand Central Station and dinner at Michael Jordan's.

Back to the hotel to crash. J spent most of the night awake and if she wasn't she was kicking me and sleeping on my side of the king size bed. Finally at 3 I put her on the sofa since we had to get up at 5:30.

J crashed at 8 PM and I was right behind her. There was no kicking or taking over my side of the bed last night. She slept like a log.

This morning we went back to Battery Park and caught the ferry to Liberty Island to see the Statue of Liberty and to Ellis Island then back to Teterboro. Everybody was asleep on the plane within 15 minutes! The biggest news was that J fell asleep on the plane too! 8 people on the plane with lots of turbulence and she slept right through it! It's probably going to take 3 or 4 days to recover.

Home at 4:30, dinner and she was out like a light at 6:15! I'm having pate on mini-toasts for dinner.

I took 64 pictures. It's a record!
