Dining Out

We went out to dinner recently at one of our favorite restaurants, The Pit.  Dining out is practically an Olympic sport based on how much preparation we have to do before we head out. We have to make sure there is something on the menu that Jack will eat, we have to make sure we take his bib, and place mat, and sippy cup, and some snacks (in case the food takes too long), and something to entertain him.  We are often exhausted before we ever leave the house, but Dave and I both feel that taking Jack out to restaurants with some frequency is good for him.  We want him to be a well-behaved child when we are out to eat and the best way for him to learn those skills to practice them.

Horray! The food is here!

I can't believe I ate the whole thing!

Wipe your mouth.

All clean!
