Sometimes my child chooses tofu over birthday cake and I question his relation to myself.

 

Sometimes he’s extra cute, scarfing down his tofu with his Combi Chopsticks for the very first time.

 

Sometimes I get overzealous with my Hipstamatic photo taking.

Saturday evening Mercer & I shared our first date night in what seems like a real forever.  No exaggeration at least 6 months.  I’m very attached to Milo & extremely protective over whom we leave him with, so it just doesn’t seem to happen all too often for us.  The offer of his Grandparents watching him Saturday evening presented itself & we took it without batting an eyelash!  We wanted to have a nice dinner out to celebrate our seven years together.

 

After Milo was settled in at his Gigi & Papa’s we headed to the restaurant (where we were planning on using our gift card we had been saving).  We ordered a drink from the lovely bar & headed to our table where we were greeted with a bottle of Sparkling Wine & the lovely note below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mercer’s wonderful parents arranged to have our entire evening taken care of.  We were not expecting that, at all.  We were so touched by their thoughtfulness.

 

We had an amazing evening together. We talked, & talked, & talked.  It was so nice to talk about things that we usually never get to get too in depth about.  It was so, so, so needed.  I’ve had a bad past few weeks emotionally, it was a wonderful gift to get out for the evening & truly forget about anything that was previously bothering me & enjoy the evening with my Love.  (& do to unexpected emergency car repairs I had to cancel my plans with my girlfriends earlier in the day to get my car fixed. I was so bummed out about that.)

 

And so we did….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This was amazing. In the center was a Black Truffle Custard. Mmmmm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I HATE mushrooms, but these? I could’ve eaten all day. Delectable to say the least.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When we got back to the house to pick Milo up we got a very sweet & nice report from his Grandparents. Hearing your child is a pleasure to watch & was an Angel is always a wonderful thing to hear as a parent.

 

It was such a nice evening.  For all of us.

 

I can’t wait for the next date night.
