Shopping in NYC

So, yesterday was crazy, but fabulous. Matt and I took Lizzie for her first pictures with Santa. Waiting in line at Macy's was like being on a ride at Disneyland. It was so amazing. They had quite a set up. I have some pics, but they are on the other computer. Anyway, then we went to the big Old Navy to return some stuff, H&M for a sweater for me, and then it was off to the Toys R Us in Times Square. It was such a great trip. I found several toys for the baby and now I am having fun playing santa, which, for a six month old, means wrapping her gifts right in front of her face. I put up our Christmas decor today, except for the tree. We decided to go artificial since it is so hard to get a tree up and down the stairs and recycling is a pain. Plus, around here a fresh tree is pretty pricey, especially once you add in all the fees. Anyway, it should get here soon and then I can finish all the decorating. It is so much fun. I wasn't really sure how I felt about the santa thing before...I just feel guilty outright lying to Lizzie, but I think I am over it. Next year will be the real test, but right now it seems like it would be sooo much fun. Well, I had better clean up all the wrapping paper I let Wahoo play with.
