A Tale of Two Kids: Guys night out (with a 4 year-old)

A Tale of Two Kids

A quick introduction for those stray non-family members that might find this blog. I'm a working mom with two kids, Jordan who is five and Kaitlyn (aka Katie) who is three. My children are the only set of grandchildren for three sets of grandparents and also have four dotting uncles. Can we say spoiled!! Despite my best efforts, the kids have actually turned out to be great kids and an endless source of amusement.

Guys night out (with a 4 year-old)

So Jordan and I decided to go out on the town on Friday night....prowling about town for Dinosours and Big Trucks......We decided to hit the movies for some Guy-Flicks.......Wallace and Grommit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit......(quite funny actually!)....We then continued on to the local watering hole (Boston Pizza)...We had beers (apple juice for him)....My picky eating son (just like Dad!) decided on a Pepperoni pizza, thinking "great, he'll eat two pieces and I'll get a midnight snack too!" Nope. He inhaled the whole thing in about 12 mins. He then promply informed me that it was time for dessert. Chocolate Fudge Caramel Cake. Biggest piece of cake I've ever seen. Krista and I usually share one and don't finish. He ate 3/4 of it himself. Me being exhausted at this point wanted to go home. Jordan on the other hand was just getting started. He dragged me to Chapters (or as he calls it...the Library) and spent 45 minutes reading every Dinosaur book in the store. Finally deciding on the one with "only T-Rex". At 10:30pm, we finally headed home. He was still hungry when he got home and once again I relented and we ate chocolate chip cookies while reading his new book, and we promptly fell asleep midway through the story......
