Dining Out With Daddy's Friends

After attending Erik's usual UC Davis class, we jammed up east to go for a late lunch with Daddy's friends from college days. These are very cool and nice people that we've known for so many years now. A couple of them even made the 100 miles drive out East just to see and meet everyone. Everybody is at a different milestone in their lives. One is single and maybe searching, One is just single and not searching. One is married but single. Another is Dating n' Waiting. We were the only boring married couple with a child :o) hee hee. But it's good to know that even though we are all at different points in our lives, we still like to meet with each other and catch up!

We had no idea how Erik will react to restaurant dining since it was more of a 'grown-up' place, where the water glasses were just a bit fancier and cloth napkins were used instead. However, Erik did extremely well! He was such a big boy in his high chair. Daddy and Mommy were very impressed at his good behavior. The lunch lasted about 2 hours but Erik did absolutely superb (according to us)! He made noises and was curious of everything (of course) and such but didn't cry or fuss too much ....only near the end when he was absolutely too tired.

While the rest of lunch group enjoyed some awesome persian food, Erik dined on organic sweet potato and water. One cute moment was when our server picked up Mommy's glass to refill the water, Erik reached out towards the glass with both hands and looked at the server as if "Hey lady, where you taking my water glass?!" (but in a polite manner) Very cute!!

Hope this means we'll have many more Happy Dining Moments!
