New Jersey!

We just came home after a fantastic week in NJ at Nana and Papa's house. It was really nice spending time there. The kids loved it too....so much, that Skyler cried for a good ten minutes after we left about how much he missed Nana and Papa. Sadie chanted their names with him. It was sad, but on the other hand, I loved that they LOVE being with my parents. We had passover, Skyler and Sadie played outside in the puddles and with the neighbors, we went to see a real mine (which Skyler thought was so cool that he was actually in a mountain...Sadie didn't last five minutes since the tour guide talked...she preferred walking!), and NYC. Skyler LOVED LOVED LOVED NYC. Loved the buildings and of course, FAO. We let him pick out any toy he wanted. A dream for a 3 year old. He was a trooper as I dragged him down fifth ave packed with a zillion people (including Sylvester Stallone). Ended up at Rockefeller Center watching people ice skate. Now Sadie...didn't love NYC so much. The people overwhelmed her and she was 'mad' that she couldn't walk. The poor thing would have been trampled by the insane amount of people. She walked a bit down Madison Ave...but it was exhausting making her happy. I think we'll wait to take her in when she's a bit older:) Here are some pics from the week. It was SO hard choosing what to post...

Skyler made this flower at school for Passover and LOVED it!
Winnie has always loved Sadie....
Skyler LOVED being outside, playing with the neighbors, and exploring the woods and creek. I had tons of flashbacks from my own childhood.
Sadie loved playing outside too....couldn't get her in!
Sadie with her Papa...
Ok, so these puddles...she was drawn to them immediately. For two days she was soaked from the knee down. But how could I possibly stop her when she had such a blast?
Naturally, Skyler was drawn to the puddles too...two messy kids:)
Headed back to the creek where Sadie learned the art of throwing rocks into the water. Saying she had fun is an understatement.
This is what she looked like by the time she was done....
Love this pic....
Skyler was a pro at the whole creek/rock throwing...
Passover with Nana!!!
Skyler went over to Sadie and grabbed her hand to include her with his group of friends. Amazing.....
memories.....
He LOVED the rocks by the creek. I literally dragged him off them to come home for dinner!
Rachel put Sadie in the swing...she had a lot of fun to say the least :)
Climbing rocks, pink cheeks, good friends that make him feel GOOD...what can be better?
King of the rocks...my little goof ball:)
