Sophia made it! She met Santa Claus without any tears. At one point it looked as if she might break down but I went up to Santa and asked him to sing the "ABC" song. It worked and Sophia was in "love" with Santa from there on out.

Thanksgiving 2009-NYC

Well, Jason and I decided to take a trip to NYC!! Although we missed the family during the holiday, it was GREAT seeing such a beautiful city! The trip went so much better than I think we both thought. Sophia was great! Although there were a few minor melt downs...I could not have asked for a better 6 month old traveler!

The three of us arrived on Thanksgiving Day. We grabbed a cab, checked into the hotel, and hit the town. As we headed towards Rockefeller Center we picked up cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery. We then ate our cupcakes and drank hot chocolate while people watching. It was the best!

The next few days were full of adventure as we toured the city. We walked Central Park, shopped (it was black Friday after all), took a carriage ride, walked Greenwich Village, Soho, Noho, Park Ave., Grand Central Station, Staute of Liberty, Ellis Island, Wall Street, and so much more!

This vacation was something that I always talked about and dreamed about.
