Couldn't Get Any Better!

Merry Christmas to all (a little late)! I can't believe that my family has already come and gone! It was so fun and I was so sad for them to leave. I don't think we could have had any more fun. Highlights for the week included:
-Santaland at Macy's
-Battling the crowd at FAO Schwartz, Macy's and Rockefeller Center
-Drawing names to buy gifts from Chinatown
-Visiting long time family friends in CT
-Christmas Spectacular & the Rockettes
-Winning Wicked lottery tickets (this was amazing...there were about 200 people there and they only call 14 names, two of us got it! There was a lot of the typical exaggerated excitement displayed from the Jensen's)
-Dancing to a light show in Grand Central
-The Charmin' experience at Times Square
-Caroling in the subway
-Leah getting to know her grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins
-Lots of laughs, good food, great memories!

Thank you so much for coming everyone! It meant so much to us, love you all!
We gave Leah a baby of her own so that she can0 get ready to be gentle with her baby sister. She's good at giving it a big squeeze


A great gift from grandma and grandpa.This is one of my favorite pictures of Leah- her smile is so cute. She's just enjoying a stroll in central park.
This was Robbie and Leah's first bonding experience, it was so much fun to watch them together. Leah's pj's are open because she unzips them for access to her belly button.
Our first venture into the city, minus Jay and my dad who was taking the picture. We were quite the sight to see paving our way through the city.
The tree at Rockefeller Center.
The girls at Christmas Spectacular- it was amazing!

How fun to have the whole family back there! What a blast! The more we see pictures of Leah, the more we think she and Liza really do come from the same gene pool. Liza even unzips her PJs to access her belly button! They seem to have gotten the same things for Christmas...the same doll and virtually the same scooter. Alas, they must be cousins...now if we could do something about them living on opposite coasts!
