Children's Museum

The Magic House was fantastic. We stayed for hours and still didn't make it through everything you can do and see. By the time we arrived home the kids were exhausted and ready for bed. One would think that would be my favorite part of this day, but it's not. Now through Labor Day the museum is free to all military families! Can't beat that. Guess where we spent another three hours today?! :)

Parks

My favorite part of this day was having our sweet Azure head out with us for her first "activity". There are some beautiful parks surrounding the entire city. Most of them have acres of beautiful landscaping with great play structures as well. We are excited to visit as many as possible.

Last Days

Thanks to Grandma's visit and helping out with our new little one I was able to take the older kiddos and let them enjoy all of their favorite activities here in Manhattan before we head out.

They also had a going away party for Steven at the hospital in which Kadyn, Azure, and I had the good fortune to attend since it was directly following one of her newborn check ups. Our experience here has been a time we will always treasure. We'll never forget the wonderful friends we've had the pleasure to meet and be forever grateful to have amazing memories we can take with us.

Update On Azure

We are now nearing two weeks old. Azure is a fantastic baby who enjoys eating, sleeping, sleeping, and sleeping. We often find ourselves having to wake Azure just to feed her and make certain her nutritional needs are met. We have all fallen head over heals in love with this little sweetheart and feel truly blessed she has come to our family and home.
