Because Conrad is still breastfeeding we opted to bring the kids this year. This was both Quinn and Conrad’s first time to New York (their first simultaneous first!). Quinn jumped and danced across playgrounds from the village to Central Park. We ate and walked. And ate a little more. Conrad lost half a dozen socks along the way.
For the most part, we kept our activities kid-friendly. But Ryne and I were able to sneak away a couple of times for some grow-up time, including Donut Plant, coffee, and a walk along the Highline Canal one day and drinks in the village one night. The kids’ were spoiled by their aunties who took them all the way to Brooklyn for pizza while we snuggled up on a bench with a view of the Empire State building and our banana peanut butter donuts.
