On Saturday, we headed across the George Washington Bridge, into Manhattan. They increased the toll this year, last year it was $8, this year they raised it to $12! That's a pretty hefty increase. Anyway... It was so beautiful & clear! The sun was out in full-force, I think the temp was about 39 when we got there and increased to 44/45 by the afternoon - however, there was a brutal wind that kicked up every so often, making the temp. feel closer to 38ish.

We parked on 73rd Street & Columbus Ave., then visited our favorite bakery; Levain's. We're kind of familiar with this area because it's where Eric & Natalie used to live. After that we headed to Central Park, where we spent most of our day. We visited a few playgrounds & pretty much just 'strolled' the park. We ended our day, with a late lunch at the Shake Shack. I must have heard, at least a dozen New Yorkers say "It's just a gor-geous day!", as we walked a long... I have to agree! :)

Baylee kept super cozy in her little LL Bean baby cubby sack! :)

 They took the water out of all the fountains in the city (freezing hazard??)

 I spotted tree buds... signs of an early spring(???) :)

 This fountain provided lot's of (pretty) entertainment...

 I guess by this time of year, this lake is usually more-so frozen over - but, this winter has been extremely mild! Lucky us!!

 Weekend strollers....

 All that walking made for some really hungry little kiddo's!
