Tysons Corner

Yesterday, we felt like we needed to get outta the house for awhile. It's been cold here, so on Courtney's days off, we've been pretty lazy and staying at home. Which is awesome, because when it was warm outside, we felt like we were going, going, going. So, it's been incredibly nice just to spend time with our little family. But, we wanted to go walk around somewhere, so we decided to make a trip to Tysons Corner. It's about a 30-45 minute drive from Waldorf and located in Tysons Corner, VA.

On our way to Tysons


We love going there. It's a 3 story mall with all you the stores you can ever imagine. Ofcoarse, we spend most of our time in the Disney store. Especially this time. McKaila was picking up every stuffed animal and pointing at everything. I think if she had it her way, she would have gone home with a lot more stuff. We did end up getting her a Lightning McQueen stuffed car. It's the first thing she grabs every time we go to the Disney store.

Ofcoarse we had to stop in the American Girl Doll store. Oh my, I can't wait until McKaila is older and she can pick out one that she likes. People go crazy in that store, and I'm sure when she is older we will be part of that. They have everything you can imagine for those dolls. Eye glasses, crutches, wheel chairs, retainers, braces, and so much more. McKaila was just loving everything though. Especially when she saw the strollers with the babies in them.



One of the places that we really like to go when we are at Tysons is Pottery Barn Kids. We love this store. McKaila does too because she gets to play with all the toys without us having to tell her "no, she can't play with that". Before McKaila was born we've talked about getting the chair they have there, called the "everywhere chair". We thought that would be the perfect thing for her once she's bigger. So, we decided to get it for her for Christmas. The best part of it is, in the store they have these chairs all around, so she kept getting in and out of them, then sitting for a little bit. It was so cute, so we knew it would be the perfect gift for her. But, McKaila won't be unwrapping a chair on Christmas morning because it's all put together already and she's loving it like crazy. She loves climbing all over it and she sits there while she watches Bubble Guppies and Cars. It's so cute!!

I LOVE those chairs!! It's been on my list of things to get Xander (and eventually Noah too!). Might be a good birthday present in February. They are just too cute. Tysons is my favorite mall. There is nothing like it around here. We love to go to California PIzza Kitchen- yum. And that double stroller cracks me up! Too cute. If I had a girl I wouldn't be able to resist it.
