My son is now 16 months and 10 days old. Unbelievable! And it has been 16 months and 17 days since my wife and I went out on a date! So yesterday we decided to go out for dinner. We asked our neighbour's daughter to baby sit J, decided on a restaurant and were so excited like it was our first date. I was talking about the whole day. Then I got home, played with J a lil' bit and Tessa came @ around 6:45 PM. And soon we were on our way after giving her a few instructions. But guess what from the minute I left home I started talking about J. When D asked to shut up and stop worrying, I said ok, but that didnt stop me. Will he be ok? Did he eat? Maybe he is crying a lot! What if he hates us for the rest of his life? Boy it was driving me nuts. I was so sure Tessa is going to call any minute asking us to come back. But the call never came. And through all this my wife remained so calm. I was suprised and super jealous. So anywas we had great Thai food. The waitress was so that nice she gave us a free entree even though we did'nt have the coupon. Elated, we decided to go to target to get a Console table that D had her eye on for a year now. We found it and it was on sale and was almost $20 less. Wow! Amazing! Picked it up. Then we decided to go to the clothes store. Found the pair of shoes I was looking for for half the price. Man, everything was just perfect. Then we decided to go home a little early cos I couldnt take it anymore. Got home as fast as we could to find my sweet little son already asleep . And Tessa told that he was perfect. Apparently, it took her just a few minutes to put him to sleep, the task that takes us almost an hour each day. So everything was perfect. But guess who was upset now. The strong mommy who asked me to shut up earlier that evening when I was freaking out. She didnt expect him to be asleep already. Now she was upset that she had left him behind. But now that I was home, I could care less, I happily settled down on our couch with the remote in hand to watch history being made in world politics. Interesting eh? Anyways thats how our first date since J was born, went about.
Peace!
