Just Be a Duck

My dad had a week off (that he wasn't on call) so we scheduled to meet in NYC to visit Katie. Bennett and I took the train up (since now we are in Northern VA it is a much shorter trip!)

Bennett enjoyed the ride with the help of the movies RIO and FROZEN ( which I have now seen both about 50 times)

My mom and dad didn't get into town until much later than we did so I didn't get any photos from the first day.

Second day - we woke up with plans to go to Katie's doctors appointment and to see the twins for the first time!!!

Bennett and Mimi reading his new Frozen book featuring Olaf!

Couldn't ride the subway without some selfies!

Bennett was not happy to be riding in his stroller. He is all about walking on his own and in his own direction - hence the stroller

I don't think Katie's doctor was expecting all of us but she was such a good sport!

So neat seeing the twins and being there when they found out they are having TWIN GIRLS!!!

Bennett was very interested... Snack and all! Can't wait to meet his new cousins!

Waiting for some lunch at Shake Shack per my request! My mom was not too happy about the line we had to wait in for t though!

And Bennett was feeling not having a nap yet ( sorry about this pic katie! your eye makeup looks on point though!!!)

Times Square

The whole gang

Next stop the Toys R Us store!

Bennett has been very into dinosaurs lately. He watches this show on PBS called Dinosaur Train so he was excited to see all the toys! He even likes this huge TRex until it rawred!

He panicked!

And of course he b- lined it to the Minion toys!

More Dino toys and animals figurines.

He was also all about these flying toys! He kept bringing me back over to see the big kids catch them!

Here's one of the big kids! :)

He caught it and I had to document the moment!

On our way out... I can't believe I did not faint in the store. The AC must have been broken because it was so hot! We couldn't have gotten out of that store fast enough!

Also - my mom bought her granddaughters their first Barbie dolls - one of the reasons we were there so long! :)

The next day we ventured over to Katie's kitchen space that she is renting out. It was such a cute little shop. Also had to get a bump shot of her in front of the store front!

After checking out the kitchen (which I failed to take pictures of) we decided to partake in some of the shop's cookies and coffee... Which you can see Bennett was thrilled about!!!

My little Cookie Monster! We got a plate of 6 cookies for all of us to split (each cookie was the size of a quarter) and I'm pretty sure Bennett thought they were all for him!
