Out & About

Thursday night Danny and I went on a date... without the Blobster (aka Gage). Danny's parents watched him for us and we used a gift certificate we had to go to Texas Roadhouse. We would probably not go there regularly, but since we had a GC it was an easy choice. It was just really nice to get out and have good conversation without being interrupted by the child. We have had way too few date nights and we plan to do it more often.

Last night (Friday) we went to La Unica for Beth's birthday. It is a good mexican restaurant on the west-side. There were about 20 people there to celebrate Beth and we had a really good time. Then I was able to go out with Kerry while Danny took Gage home to bed. The last time that I was out without Gage was middle of November. That was a really long time ago. It was good to have a night out with a good friend.

Today for lunch, Danny and I walked to Poor Richard's. It is about 5 blocks away, and it was nice enough weather today to get out. It was so nice to go for a short walk, and it reminded us that this is one of the reasons we love living downtown. Since Gage is crawling now he was able to play in their play area in the back for the first time. It will be fun to take him there as he gets older.

Then, tonight we went to Slayton's BBQ for dinner with Lucas and Jaime. It was really good food and there was a good Blues singer that started shortly before we left. He had a beautiful guitar and we could have stayed and listened to him all night, but I needed to get Gage home and in bed.

FYI - we are still having some sleeping issues with Gage, but it is hopefully getting better.
