Highlights from NYC

We, the Thomas family, took a trip to NYC to see Levi and Jeanne. They are there so Levi can attend NYU law school. 7 adults and 5 little boys! We were a sight.

At the airport, glad we got a two kid stroller.












And all through the trip we were thankful for Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on Bradley's old iPhone. Bailey had to be in the stroller so much every day that he got spoiled with Mickey and pacifiers.













Bailey was a little bit of a handful on the plane, and after we landed, he fell asleep!















Lots of little boys! Carter had the best time playing with his cousins all week.















And my boys favorite spot in the hotel was in the window.












The new World Trade Center going up.















A cross found in the rubble of the old WTC.















Pops and Bailey at the Museum of Natural History.















The Rockettes were our favorite. Bailey and Carter loved the show.
















The big Christmas tree in Rockefeller center.

















Levi and Jeanne have already done it, but me, Bradley, Morgan, my parents, Matthew and Jennifer sprinted the 22 flights of stairs to the crown of the Statue of Liberty.


















Yes, the toy store from Big.
















Bradley and I in Central Park. We went ice skating there too. Carter had to try after his cousins did. He tells everyone he did it by himself. When in actuality Bradley and I pulled him around one lap. He thought he was big stuff!











Bailey throwing yet another fit. My poor baby was not enjoying his stroller, or being bundled up so much.












Opening gifts from Santa and family at Levi and Jeanne's apartment. Jeanne knitted each little boy a stocking with their name on it.












Levi and Jeanne have been perfecting a pizza recipe with homemade sauce, crust, and fresh fixings. And indeed, it was perfect. As you'll notice below, everyone is standing around with plates in hand waiting for the next one out of the oven.














The day we left, was the day of the blizzard. Our boys saw real snow as we waited for our ride to the airport. Bailey was not impressed. Carter liked it, but said it was cold. On the way to the airport we saw 5 wrecks.
















I didn't get to take as many pictures as I usually do, but luckily Matthew took lots. I'll put up some of his another day.
