Connoisseur of Playgrounds

We were in New York City last weekend for a fun Mother's Day trip and a visit to Pappa. Most of the weekend was spent sampling the many playgrounds the city has to offer. Here's a few pictures from our trip:

Along the East River at Carl Schurz Park.

Tasting his roots, aka, eating a bagel. He loved it.

Crawling around the Met.

Swinging in Central Park. (across the street from the Met.)

Climbing in Carl Schurz Park.

Sliding with Mama. He would try to climb back up the slide every time.

We had a great visit. We spent time with friends and met new friends. I highly recommend Two Little Red Hens. It's a great bakery that Jack recommended. I had the best scone I've ever eaten - an almond cherry scone. Yum! And we indulged in a red velvet cupcake that was also the best I've ever eaten. Totally worth the trip from any part of the city. Luckily we could walk there from our hotel. We met a great local couple who told us about Carl Schurz park, which was our favorite of the trip.

Now that Jacob is crawling, his days of sitting still are over. It's so much fun to watch him explore everything he can get into. He's cruising around and walking while holding the furniture, etc. He'll be walking soon enough! It's a good thing because he's getting big!
