We made a quick trip this weekend to NYC. Our first trip with Anna out of diapers…let’s just say, I would be happy to never see the inside of a rest stop bathroom again! The purpose of our visit? To surprise Poppy for his birthday, of course!

It was fun to get all the cousins together again – it happens so rarely, everyone seems to grow many inches in between visits. (Shhh, don’t tell anyone – I think my eldest niece is very nearly as tall as I am…) The girls had so much fun playing with their cousins, and were very sad to have to leave.

Now we’re home again, with two rather grumpy children who have sat in the car for far too many hours in the past three days. Hopefully everyone will get a reasonable amount of sleep tonight!
