Apparent Vacation

To close out our summer travels, I tagged along on a research trip Clark took to New York City. Finn stayed home and attended Nonnie Camp. Haven't heard of Nonnie Camp? It's the best deal in town- trustworthy childcare 24 hours a day, 6 days a week, it includes a minimum of 45,000 kisses each day, hours of adventures including (but not limited to) trips to the zoo, lego building, Wonderlab, book stores, the pool, toy stores, restaurants, parks, and botanical gardens. Each day comes with a new toy and fun phrase or song. After almost a week, we came home to one happy kid. Nonnie looked pretty content too. Here are a few photos of camp, but more of our fantastic time in NYC. Those are the faces of parents filled with gratitude and MANY HOURS of SLEEP.

At the fair. Bah!

There's a lot to see at the fair, but Finn seems to have a sixth sense to seek out the firetrucks.

Petting the prize calf. (and yes, of all things to paint on a face, he chose a spider.) 

Nonnie doesn't mess around when Finn requests a day of adventure.

I dont blame this dinosaur- I'd like to gobble him up too!

And how we spent our time in New York...

I leisurely drank one of these every day. 

In Brooklyn, picnicking and enjoying the view. 

Geez, a rooftop bar feels glamourous.

Broadway play! When in NYC...

Even far away, our minds were often on Finn.

Perhaps the best way to spend a New York evening.
