Little Guy and Mommy Date

On Saturday, the Little Guy and I went on a date to the mall. It was so fun to spend some times just the two of us. We stared with some dinner at Chick-fil-A siting on the small kids tables at the food court. We then walked all over the mall looking at things (and stopping at Bath and Body Works for a free travel size lotion I had). He was just a little prince going through all of the stores and he held my hand the entire time. It is nice that I am so pregnant and slow, we keep pace perfectly with each other. It took as a while to make it all the way to the deserted part of the mall to the dinosaur-themed playground, but it was well worth it. The Little Guy knew exactly what he was doing and stared playing right away (making sure that Mommy was watching of course). Side Note: I have been working so hard on teaching the Little Guy to take turns and he does really well with it. That being said, it is so frustrating when he is patiently waiting his turn on the slide and an other kid will just come and cut in front of him. Gosh! Teach your kids to wait their turns!!!! 

The only thing that dragged the Little Guy away from that playground was the prospect of chocolate ice cream (he was very insistent that it in fact had to be chocolate). We went to a frozen yogurt place right across the mall called Farr's Fresh. Spencer and I were first introduced to it years ago and it is perfect for us because it is not only frozen yogurt (which neither one of us likes) but custard as well. Best thing of all it is really inexpensive (way cheaper than Cold Stone) and because they charge by the ounce the Little Guy gets his own cup at no extra charge than sharing mine (with all his own toppings). Chocolate faces at no extra charge at all :)

The last part of our date, was a much needed shopping trip to Walmart, and man, were we tired at the end. As we were getting close to our house the Little Guy randomly said "Mom, we go home please?"

I love my Little Guy
