central park

we've lived in new york close to 5 months now and had yet to make the trip up to central park. so we headed up this past weekend.
i mainly wanted to see the central park conservatory. it did not disappoint. the lilacs were in bloom and so were an amazing variety of tulips.
we learned william does not like cold water, just warm water in his bath. this was taken right before we dipped his feet in the water and he quickly expressed his dislike.
one reason this was our first outing to central park is that william has limited happy time between naps. and he loves napping in his cradle. and central park isn't necessarily a short outing from lower manhattan. so as he began to make it clear it was nap time we found a spot under a tree and successfully had a little nap, enough to hold him over for the subway ride home. it was kind of a production, but helped everyone be happy.
central park i love you and hope to return often for more exploration.

What a particular little soul. Kudos to a man who knows the value of sleep.

I love that you put him down for a nap in the park. My kids have slept on the beach, in Wild Animal Park, and Sea World. When they're tired, there's no stopping them! He is darling Jenny!
