After our photo shoot in the park we got in the van and headed up to Stamford, CT to visit Mike's brother Brian and his family. It was an exciting visit because Mia got to meet her cousins Gracie and Emma. It took us SIX hours to drive the 262 miles (this kind of traffic is Not for me). We got in at 10 pm and went right to sleep.
On Monday Mike had a meeting in New York with Tree House Interactive about doing some development work with them. So after Brian and Wendy took the girls to school and went to work we got ready for a trip to the Big Apple. We took the Metro-North Railroad from Stamford to Grand Central Station. The weather was not the best, 45 and rainy, but Mia looked so cute walking down the streets of New York with her Disney Princess umbrella (I tried to get a picture but the camera batteries died). We had lunch at TGI Friday's and then it was time for Mike to go to his meeting. Mia, Gabriel, and I went across the street to American Girl Place! Mike was worried that we where going to get bored being there for an hour but that was not a problem. They had 4 floors of dolls and clothes, a cafe, photo studio, theater, and a doll hair salon. By the time Mike got back from his meeting we had to rush back to the train station so we could get on before all the commuters going home from work.
When we got back Mia was excited to get to play with the girls. After dinner we watched a movie and went to sleep.
Tuesday we packed up and once again loaded up the van this time to head for HOME! It was a very fun trip and we saw a lot but it is always good to get home. I forgot how much work it is to travel with a baby.

Sounds like fun...I think I would have a good time playing with all of the dolls, and I don't even have a kid! ;)
Something about toy stores...and ice cream...to bring the kid out in all of us!
