Gabba In The City.

This past weekend we took a trip to NYC for a little concert, with a little group called Yo Gabba Gabba. Since this was Rubi's first trip to the big city, we tried to fit in as much of New York as possible in such a short period of time.

We explored Central Park.

Rubi experienced the subway for the first time.

I have to say, i think Rubi's least favorite experience in NYC had to be those FAO Schwarz guards. In fact, about 20 minutes later she wouldn't stop screaming "I WANT TO GO HOME".

(the subway no problem...but men in tall hats TAKE ME HOME!)

While we were in NYC we decided to take Rubi to the Children's Museum of Manhattan. It's a very child friendly, interactive museum. Rubi loved every floor, and as always stacked just about everything she could find.

Rubi's favorite part of the Children's Museum was definitely the water section. She didn't want to leave, she also played very well the other children, and even shared.

GASP

I know what you're thinking, they actually left that child alone in the middle of Times Square...truth is we only left her long enough to grab a hot dog and a nap (which Rubi was fine with, by the way).

Rubi, Dad, and Jeffrey.

Taking a little nap in Central Park before the big show. Who knew the soothing streets of NYC would put a child to sleep.

We underestimated the number of people who would be showing up for this free concert in Central Park. We waited in a line of about 300 people long...and Neil stood in a line for about 45 min. (no joke) for an ice cream for Rubi (yes, we will bring this all up when Rubi is 15 and screaming that we ruined her life).

Rubi was so in awh of this experience, that most of the time the characters were on stage, she just held out her hand and waved.

Waving goodbye to Dj Lance Rock and Brobee.

We will definitely return to New York soon...it was a great trip (thanks to our tour guides Uncle Kyle and Aunt Alana).
