Friday, January 13—A Night Out with a Little Gentleman

Ian has been off track since Christmas break and once again we all got sick while he was home.  Instead of spending the week crossing items off of our “off-track to do list”  we spent the week doing laundry, napping, watching TV, and cleaning the bathroom.  Last time he was off track we spent it at Instacare, Primary Children’s, and the doctor’s office.  So, I told him we would go on a date Friday night just the two of us.  His date night choices were mini-golfing, bowling, and a movie.  He chose the movie because “that way I can spend more time with you (he’s already a ladies man). 

We started the evening at Applebee’s armed with a gift card courtesy of the PTA.  We played games on my cell phone, watched the basketball game, and did all of the puzzles on the kids menu.  He discussed his Reflection winning photo with our waitress, commented on the basketball game loud enough for those around us to ask him questions about who he wanted to win, and laughed at the servers singing Happy Birthday.  After dinner we went to see “We Bought a Zoo” which was actually really good and we both liked it.  We decided our favorite character was the little girl and Ian’s favorite part was were they tell everyone there is no Easter Bunny (so be prepared parents).  Ian is still trying to figure it out, he keeps asking me every few days if there is an Easter Bunny. 

Miles is already planning his date night.  Bowling and McDonalds.
