McGees visit!

Will's parents and brother came in town last weekend! They arrived on Thursday afternoon and that night we went to a hibachi steakhouse in Bay Ridge. The kids loved the "show" and were fascinated by the fish!

 

Edith loved the swinging walk with her grandparents on the way home!

 

 Back at the house the kids loved the attention, but Israel was so tired from school that he ended up falling asleep in his grandmother's arms!

 Friday morning Gaga, Edith and I went to Staten Island. We went kids clothes shopping and then to the mall for Build A Bear. It was Edith's first time and she LOVED picking out her "Princess Bear." 

GaGa let her pick out a princess outfit for her Princess bear.

Edith wasn't that interested in participating in the bear-making process.

We finished our morning out with a lunch at Red Robin!

Meanwhile, Will, his dad and brother Evan went on a tour of Squarespace and then visited the Met museum.

 

That afternoon when Israel came home from school we had a little birthday party for Edith. We got cupcakes from the bakery and Edith opened her presents.

Saturday - we mainly played inside that day because it was SO HOT.

It was Edith's actual birthday, and we got out her birthday Easel. She didn't like it when anyone else played with it, hence the drama.

Sunday we had church and then went back to GaGa and Pop's hotel where we got takeout and enjoyed the air conditioning!

 

It was a great trip, and on Monday morning GaGa and Pop flew Israel back south with them for a few days of one-on-one time!
