At Least We Got Dinner...

Saturday night we went out for our anniversary. Without kids. It was kind of a strange day- for starters, it was POURING down rain most of the day. I mean dumping! Marc wanted a good burger (we are classy people! ha) so we ended up going to the Hard Rock Cafe here in town. It was loud, but it's descent food. Not long after we ordered our meal a group of ladies arrived all dressed up. And by dressed up, I mean, not wearing very many clothes. They were celebrating a "Hen" night- something like a bachelorette party for us in the States. They were loud and crude...and not even drunk yet. I was embarrassed for them.

We quickly ate our meal and were trying to decide what to do next...go somewhere else for dessert or just go get coffee. Well, it was still pouring down rain and the Starbucks in town closes at 7pm. I know, I have no idea why! So coffee was out and we are now standing under a bus stop to keep dry. Marc's mobile rings- uh-oh! It's one of our team members that is babysitting our girls. All I can hear is Addison SCREAMING and something about "won't take the bottle."

Grrr-eat. I told her to try another bottle I had there at the house and call me back if it not does work. We swam our way to the car, by this point both of us are totally soaked up to our calves. We got in the car and the phone rings again, she ain't having any of it! So back home we went, to feed that little stinker! I felt so bad, especially since I was all "oh ya, she's had one bottle before, she'll be fine, no big deal!" That one bottle she had was with my parents on our visit to Dallas when she was 7 weeks old.

Anyway, once we got home and got on dry clothes I nursed her and when I sat her up to burp her, she gave me the biggest, gummiest grin ever and my heart melted. Then I told her what a little stinker she was! We put the girls to bed (we'd only been gone about an hour, so they were still up) and were able to have some good conversations on the couch. We laughed about the whole night and promised that next year, when we are stateside we will be going on vacation alone. I can't wait!

Before we left the house for our date, the girls wanted to take pictures of us, so here they are!

And to close this post, I will tell you what Cerys said to me yesterday after she was on an all day field trip with her Nursery class- "Mom, since when do I start doing what you tell me to do? I'll just do what I want to do!"

I don't think so.
