Liberty Island and the Statue of Liberty

Yesterday, Jon's family and us three took a trip down to Battery Park to visit Liberty Island. We got on the boat and Sophie was perfect, as always. Here's a shot of her in her cute hat and her big girl stroller:
















Here are a few shots that I took with my cell phone of the Statue, from the boat and from the area directly below it. Gustave Eiffel (who designed only my favorite monument EVER) also designed the support for the Statue, which was a gift from France. Inside, they let you look up into it and they had replicas of the face, foot, etc. The last photo is a sign that made me smile.































































One more milestone for Sophie, other than the first time being in a taxi, on the subway, and on a boat. Using a sippy cup!!! What a big girl at 5 1/2 months:
