Dinner Dates

Olivia is the sweetest thing. She loves the idea of weddings, marriage, dancing, princes...fairy tales. She likes to dance with Daddy and calls it "getting married." Well, she really wanted to go on a date with Daddy and Mommy go on a date with Ethan. So the couples went out to dinner and then to the grocery store - separately. Really, it was very exciting for them. Sasha (my Aunt Cheryl) had sent them gift cards to our local grocery store so they could pick out their "favorites." Ethan and Mommy went to McDonald's then at the store Ethan chose juice boxes, fruit snacks, donuts (one for every one on the family - such a sweetheart), and gummy savers. Olivia and Daddy went to Burger King and at the store Olivia chose a Hello Kitty coloring book, a teeny tiny diary key chain with stickers, and rainbow Twizzlers. They were so cute and had so much fun on our little excursions. I think in later years our dates are going to want more say in where we go and what we do, but until then...

How cute! I call it a date, too, when I take Isaac somewhere or Matt takes him. :) It is so important giving them attention one-on-one isn't it?
