This weekend Madison got a bit of a cold, runny nose and a bit of fever and sweating so none of us got to sleep well and just fyi I was feeling the similar symptoms as Madison so even though we made it to the Church building on Sunday morning we had to turn around and go home when Madison was soaking wet from sweating so much in her car seat... Anyways, she slept through the night last night and was looking good this morning so I decided to go do some Xmas shopping on 5th ave today. I decided to take a cab as it's very easy to catch one right outside of our duplex. Our first stop was at Pret A Manger to get an iced coffee to drink while shopping and a sandwich to eat later... Then we walked over to Coach on 57th and got to pick out my birthday gifts from my sweet husband. Our next stop was at Juicy Couture store since I had 30% off total purchase coupon I was hoping to find something for my sister Asuka but couldn't decide on one thing so let's see if I can make up my mind by the 18th which is the last day for 30% off. We quickly stopped at Gap for nursing Madison and got to help a grand-ma who was buying a gift for her grand daughter who will be turning 1 in May and not sure of what size to get . After that we were off to the World of Disney store to find something for my other sister Sayaka's family who are huge Disney fans. I got something, but not enough so I will probably have to take another trip before Xmas, but I found my nephew a really cute pair of pajamas with an "I (mickey heart) NY" logo. Madison fell asleep while at the Disney Store so we walked over to the Central Park Zoo as planned and when we got there it was 2:31 and I noticed they were feeding the penguins at 2:30 so we raced straight to the building, but Madison was sleeping so after watching for a little while I decided to go outside and eat my sandwich and then when Madison woke up we went back in to see the penguins, who were still being fed, and Madison really enjoyed it. I had planned on walking over to Whole Foods for some Vegan chocolate chip cookies, but it was getting a little chilly so we headed for the subway to go home and rest after our fun-filled shopping day.
Coco was worn out just hearing about the day.
Mmmm Pret A Manger! That was my favorite place to eat in London! Now I'm in a sandwichy mood! It sounds like a fun day shopping to me! With a little guidance, Madison will be an expert shopper in no time!
ReplyDeletePret A Manger--found that place in June when I was in the city. Kept going back for their oatmeal. I'm with Coco, just reading about your shopping trip made me exhausted. And you did it all with a little one in tow!
