Yesterday was our fourth anniversary! It's always nice to reach
another milestone, and we had a wonderful time being together with our
little Bobo. It's so great that I work from home so I can have little
visits from them both throughout the day, and sometimes have a little
coworker while The Wife has a nap or does some of her own things.
We
didn't have a big fancy celebration this year, but we did reach another
milestone: Leaving the CAG with a great pair of babysitters so we
could enjoy a nice dinner alone at Chef's Table (by the way, check the
expiration dates on your LivingSocial deals for that place... sometimes
the window of time to use them is pretty narrow). The food was
delicious as usual, and partway through dinner, after regularly checking
our phones for messages from the sitters, we realized we have
definitely become Those Parents who go out to have a little private time
and then proceed to think and talk about their offspring pretty much
the entire time (I guess all parents do, really). But we did have a
nice time for an hour or two, and although it would have been a little
easier if the baby hadn't started very uncharacteristically crying right
before we left (his outburst even warranted the full-first-and-middle-name treatment from me), he seemed to do all right for Lacie and Leland, who
were so nice to come over and watch him for us. I'm sure he loved his
first babysitters!!! Next time will be easier, I'm sure. He was
probably just still hungry, or maybe gassy. I know that always makes ME
cranky. Ha. Gross.

| Yes, maybe I AM wearing the same thing I wore to that restaurant on a previous anniversary. Try to forgive me. |
 |
| These were the updates that were periodically sent to us throughout dinner. My boy already has a love for Asian peoples. |
 |
| First babysitters! Christmas jammies FTW! |
And then we all watched a so-so episode of Project
Runway together. And a fun time was had by all, including the little
one who finally calmed down once he had his second dinner and a little
rock.
Happy anniversary, Wife!!! I'm sorry I dropped
the
dozen-per-year tradish, but by this point I think that would become a
little bit much. I figured you would be quite happy with a dozen from
me and a dozen from The Boy. I love you!!!
And why not end with a few beautiful photos from our reception?

| An extra P.S. :* |
Aww, you two are so cute! And it's good that you talk about your boy, he's an important part of your life! I spend all day with my kids, they don't magically stop existing when I'm not around them. I do talk about other things too, but family is where it's at. :)
