Every day Grace packs her pink suitcase bag that she received for Christmas from Memere & Pepere with items for our daily trip to New York City. Grace engages in an elaborate pretend play scenario all over our house where each room represents a different place or building in New York City. Grace, Jack, and I travel together by airplane, boat, taxi, and subway from one "site" to the next. This morning Grace asked to pack Baby Jack in her pink suitcase bag so in he went all the way to the Big Apple! Today we all took a boat ride to see the Statue of Liberty, took the subway to an art museum, and finally a taxi to Central Park to play on a playground and to visit Balto's statue (Balto is a famous sled dog who in 1925 transported medicine to children with diphtheria in Nome, Alaska). What an adventure we all had this morning!

Baby Jack Goes To New York City!

How cute, both Grace's pretend adventures and Jack in the suitcase. We can add travel agent to Grace's future, and Jack's picture is like a step back in time, except that it's not a drawer, it's a suitcase. Your days are anything but boring.
Fun, fun, fun.
Hugs and kisses,
Memere
Jack looks relaxed and comfortable in the hustle and bustle of the big city! He's already secure in knowing that his big sister, Grace will take care of him, always, and anywhere...Oh, the places she'll take him! Buckle Up, Jack!
Hugs from chilly Vermont,

Another fun time inside your home!
I know that Grace is fascinated with the Big Apple (me, too!). We will have to begin making plans for our trip. I think that Jack's picture is so sweet~with the sunny lighting. Your home is like a sparkling gateway to the city. I love the curiosity and creative play that Grace and Jack show us. Have another vibrant day,
Love, Maddy
IF .... only you could pack up those beautiful children in the pink suitcase and mail them to Memere & Pepere and Poppy & me for a few days!! Think about it!
I hope that Grace keeps an eye out for their stop. It looks like Jack could sleep right through it.
XOXOXO,
Memere
