 My mom came down right before Charlie's birthday and we went to NYC. Specifically, the American Girl Doll Store. Now, if you've never heard of American Girl or only know the basics (that it's a doll) you'll be amazed (as I was when I first saw it) to know that they have a three floor store on 5th Avenue. It is, to say the least, crazy. The line to get into the restaraunt wrapped around the escalator. The dolls sit with you at the table (we didn't go, next time, maybe). There's a beauty salon . . . for the doll. 14$ will get the dolls ears pierced.

Crazy. But Charlie thought it was (and is) just about the greatest damn thing ever.

It was not orange. Don't know why the photos are.

As soon as we got to Rockefeller Center I started humming the 30 Rock theme song. Which is funny because there's a 30 Rock where Kenneth the Page meets Jerry Seinfeld and the only thing he can do is hum the Seinfeld theme song. But I'm sure you've seen it. It's a classic. 

Here's the only picture that came out at the Times Square Toys R Us. They have a three story ferris wheel and two story T. Rex inside. As well as life size Iron Man and Capt. America's hanging out.

Ash slept on the train on the way home.

I made carrot cake cup cakes instead of birthday cake figured it would be easier for the kids to eat. Don't know why I didn't realize the kids would just eat the icing and leave the cup cake on the table. 

Some cute Asher pictures. To balance the past post. Note the colored pencil between the toes.
