Dinner last night was comical and exhausting. We went out for sushi with our neighbors and their two children; Pierce, who is almost two years old and Roman, who is almost one, and if it wasn’t one kid complaining, it was the other.
We were in and out in almost an hour flat and because we were tending to our tots, I don’t think one complete conversation was had.
From the waterfalls, turtle pond, lights, other patrons, windows, fans and the always fun to play with dishes, chop sticks, menus and mommy and daddy’s food, you were mesmerized by all there was to see and touch.
We tried feeding you with the food we brought, but you were more interested in what P & R had, so we shared. We tried entertaining you with the toys we brought and you were antsy and only settled down when your dad and I took turns taking you on walks to visit the sushi bar, turtles and hostess stand.
The best part of the evening was that we all laughed about it, during and afterward. Welcome to dining with children! The sushi wasn’t bad either. 🙂 Oh well, we tried, right? Next time, it will be just the four adults. No offense, kids!
The best is yet to be.
Day 55/100

I know exactly how that dinner went! Since my sisters had their kids within a few months of the twins, we have that dinner everytime we try to go out with all of them…and every time we say we will never do it again! At least you didn't try to go out with a couple that didn't have kids – they may not have been laughing 😉
So, I went out to dinner last night and I couldn't help but think it was slightly quiet and boring.. That's what Lucas has done to me! : ) I missed that little bugger interrupting my conversation and my eating! haha! It's just not the same without him around.
