Black Friday Shopping Spree!/ブラックフライデーの買い物ブラックフライデイの買い物の巻

Madison met us with her usual 6am wake-up call, but this time we sprung into action as she went back to sleep after her feeding so at 7:30am we were on the road to the Woodbury Common Outlets, upstate about an hour away. Some of the stores had been open since 9pm Thanksgiving night so we weren't sure what kind of crowds we would be met with, but there were plenty of people who had slept in like us and were just beginning...some of the stores like Burberry and Coach had Disney World style lines wrapping around outside them with people just waiting to get in to spend money...other stores were quite empty...we hit all those stores first...then Anna decided she just had to wait in one of the Disney lines to have the Black Friday experience so she chose Coach while Madison and I did some shopping for Mommy since we seldom have alone time so it worked out quite well...all in all I think it took about an hour for Mommy to go from end of line through check-out register...she felt like it was well worth it and Madison actually slept the whole time so it was nice for me too.
マディソンがいつも通り朝の６時に起きた後、そのまま頑張って起きて７時半頃に１時間ぐらいは慣れた所にある一番大きいアウトレットのお店にお買い得なセールを求めて行って来ました。昨日の夜９時から開いてるせいもあって駐車場はほとんど満車で朝の８時半なのにアウトレットは人でいっぱい！やっぱりコーチとかバーバリーには結構長い列があったんだけどまず最初は混んでないお店を適当にぶらぶらと一周そしてその後は、やっぱりせっかく来たんだからとコーチの列に並ぶ事に...もちろん一人でだけどね...デイブと寝ていたマディソンはアンナ用のクリスマスプレゼントを求めて何処かに行っていたみたい：）可愛いバッグと折り畳み傘が見つかったから寒い中並んでよかったです。

On the way home from the outlets we swung by Stew Leonards because we really like that place and then arrived home around 2:30 when Madison and I took much needed naps and somehow Mommy stayed awake...after nap time we got to playing and while Madison's play mat was playing its jingle I just started to make a shooshing noise to it and Madison started to giggle, so we got a little bit on tape for your enjoyment.
アウトレットからの帰り道にステュウレナードのお店に寄って食料品の買い物をして家に着いたのは２時半頃...デイブとマディソンが一緒にお昼寝をしてくれている間に私はのんびりとできました。昼間お昼寝しちゃうと夜なかなか寝れなくなっちゃうんだよね...そしてお昼寝の後におもちゃの音楽に合わせてデイブが音を出していたらマディソンには面白かったらしく、いきなりキャハキャハって！だからビデオに撮ってみました：）
