Ok... have to write about our outing last night and this afternoon. They were both mostly successful! Last night we went for dinner (pasta), to the bookstore, and then ice cream. It was fun. The girls (all three) were very good! N and K loved the ice cream and were so much fun.
This afternoon we went for lunch and K was totally into her grilled cheese and french fries and it's always nice when she's eating instead of wanting to run around the restaurant. (At dinner last night, she finshed her food quickly and wanted to run around the restaurant. I distracted her by letting her play with make-up from my purse and my keys--fortunately we were far enough away from the car that the remote didn't lock/unlock it!)
T slept through both outings... I somehow think that outings right now are easier than they are going to be in a year.
One thing, both my husband and I feel, is that on our outings we are both on high alert making sure that the girls are happy and that all is going well. It's a little stressful. On the other hand, when we stay home all the time, the girls get bored and whiney. It's important to get them out of the house! Unlike their parents, the Internet just isn't enough for them.
