We took Go Go on his Half Birthday Date yesterday.  This is a tradition we have where we take the one child out on a special date with just mom and dad.  Go Go chose to go to Times Square and the BIG Toys R Us that is like an amusement park in and of itself.  It has Super Heroes flying from the ceiling and walking around the store, a full size ferris wheel, and a full size T-Rex, just to name a few.  We had lots of fun. Go Go refused to sit down on the subway insisting that he could stand up like the big people and hold on to the pole.  Out of ALL the restaurants in Penn Station (there are at least a million) he chose…. Pizza Hut.  And he saw more M&M’s then he’s ever seen in his life.  
Favorite quotes:
Upon coming off of the train and into Penn Station (remember, home to a million different restaurants) Go Go’s over active sense of smell kicked in and he said, “Mom, what food am I smelling?”  This is like asking while standing next to a freeway, “What kind of car am I hearing?”

As we came out of the Subway and into Times Square his eyes got really big and he said, “Wow.  I’ve never been in a city like this.  This is like the cities on TV!”  We then informed him that this was THE city he sees on TV.
