Last night, Ryan, Charley, and myself spent an awesome night out. First, Ryan took his girls to Nakato. What Fun! Actually, it didn't start out to fun. Charley is going through a really bad phase of not wanting to sit in a high chair. I was worried about this little situation before we ever left the house. Sure enough, as soon as we arrived and put Charley in her high chair, she began screaming and yelling. She even chucked TiTi (her most favorite stuffed animal that we CANNOT leave home without) clear across the place. Next, she started throwing raisins and crackers. Thank goodness we were the only ones sitting at the table at the time! We were finally able to keep her from throwing things off the table, but she continued to scream and make a big fuss. By this time, other people were showing up at our table and if there is one thing I can't stand it's having MY KID screaming in a restaurant disturbing others. After about 2 more seconds of that, Ryan declared "That's enough" and he grabbed Charley out of her chair and took off to an undisclosed location. After a few minutes Ryan and Charley returned. He sat Charley down in her high chair and she never made another peep. Actually, I take that back. She did get a little fussy once more, but when Ryan asked her if she wanted to go back to the bathroom, she replied with a little innocent "No." I'm not sure what went down in that bathroom between Ryan and Charley, but whatever it was, it worked.
After dinner we made our way downtown to the Little Theater where we saw Seussical the Musical. One of my good friends, Rachel, works at the theater and was kind enough to give us three tickets. Thank you so much Rachel! The show was awesome!! I would highly recommend going to see it whether you have children or not. Ryan thinks it is one of the best shows he has ever seen! Charley loved it! It was just a great evening!
Finally, yesterday morning our family had pictures taken. Jessica Oatman was the photographer. She is so amazing! She has posted a sneak peek of some of the pictures she took on her blog. If your interested, you can check them out at http://www.jessicaoatman.blogspot.com/.
