For Dylan's half birthday, I got him dressed up and took him out for mexican food. He got to watch the buses and trucks pass by while we waited for the bus to take us to Union Square, which he thoroughly enjoyed. He had chips and salsa as an appetizer, and he's gotten really good at dipping the chips and didn't seem to mind how spicy it was. (He must be my son.) He had some refried beans (his favorite) and some of the carne from my enchilada for dinner and then chewed on a straw while I ate my food.
When we left the restaurant, I decided to let him run around the square for a little bit because he'd been sitting for so long. He was so happy to be outside and mobile that I thought it would be a good idea to just walk home. He walked the equivalent of 4 (New York) city blocks before we got to a big hill and I put him in the stroller. That's a lot of walking for a 31" tall little boy! He was asleep by the time we got to the top of the hill.
When we got home, Dylan woke up and we ate a beautiful pear I bought on the way home. He had 3/4 and I ate the rest. It was the perfect end to his half birthday.
