New York

My husband travels all of the time for his job and I am always wishing that, for once, I could stay in a hotel by myself. No, I would not trade my "job" for his, but some adult interaction is my envy! It is very hard NOT to be jealous of the time he gets in a hotel room with a bed to himself and something other than Disney on the television. Therefore, my girlfriends and I decided that we would take a "done nursing" vacation. We decided on a 3 night New York getaway where we could enjoy fancy dinners, a show, shopping and sleeping without disruption! We had an amazing time! It was bittersweet leaving that Thursday morning with three of my children standing in a line at the front door waving, blowing kisses, and watching me drive out of the driveway. I so badly wanted to run back in and kiss them once more. At that moment, I wondered how I was going to get through 3 whole days without my babies! The weekend was filled with dinner at Tao (Sex in the City), Wicked (absolutely AMAZING), SOHO shopping, Canal Street (almost got arrested for buying a Louis in McDonalds) and just plain FUN!! We met Giada (Everyday Italian) while we were eating in the Rockefeller Center. We met Abigail (the "real" Kit from the Kit Kittredge movie), and we rode MANY blocks piled on one another on the back of a Rickshaw. I do not think I have laughed so hard in my life! This poor guy who weighed less than me, peddled 4 of us a very long way, up hill. Oh my. This was hilarious to say the least. Let's just say he may have retired after that trip... On Sunday, I was very excited to hug my babies and kiss their little cheeks as they were sound asleep when I got home. Cannot wait to do this again girls!
