A Kids' Grocery Store?

Yes! This is a real "only in Manhattan" kind of place. Last Sunday, we walked to Kidfresh, a market of groceries and prepared foods for kids.

Sadie loved walking through the small door, taking a kid sized cart and choosing some groceries. She picked mini carrot muffins for a snack and then a lunch box with organic cheese and turkey slices, crackers, yogurt and water.



She ate the muffins in the little dining room at the back of the store, which was complete with small tables, plastic chairs shaped like animals and a little sink right at her level so she could wash her hands before she ate. The muffins were yummy.

The lunch was eaten at Grandma and Grandpa's apartment. Verdict: Thumbs up! The cheese was delicious, but there were only 3 small slices. There were 6 pieces of turkey, it was yummy too, but Sadie preferred the cheese. She also liked the crackers a lot. We had seen these in the store before but had not tried them. The mini bottle of water was also a big hit. Sadie did not like the yogurt though. It was a much thinner consistency than the yogurt she is used to and I think she was having trouble keeping it on the spoon.

Thanks for taking us to such a fun store, Grandma and Grandpa!

Ariel's Grotto

This water playground was one of Sadie's favorites at the Magic Kingdom. She loved running around with other children and enjoying the water that sprayed from the fountains.

She got pretty wet, but it was nice and warm out so it felt good. It's a little hard to see, but on her blouse, she is wearing a Tinkerbell pin that was given to her by the concierge while we were checking into the hotel. They are so nice at Disney!

Sadie doesn't know the stories of Peter Pan or Beauty and the Beast, so she is little confused about Tinkerbell and Belle.
"Belle, she's Tinkah-bell's mommy?"
"This the little Belle, where's a big lady Belle?"
