A Quiet Fondu Dinner...

Maddie eyeing the blanket situation - see more below...

A quiet Fondu dinner with three 17 month olds??? Yes, we were slightly crazy, but it actually worked out and we had a wonderful dinner with some good friends a couple weeks ago. We fed the little people dinner first and then tried to get them to watch a Baby Einstein movie. Our plan looks like it worked from the pictures, but as soon as we took the picture, Maddie decided she was cold and needed more of the blanket. That led to her brother Luke being cold and telling us about it. We got Luke his own blanket, but then Maddie decided she was freezing and needed even more of the blanket. Zayne wasn't happy about that, so he let us know. Eventually, we got them each their own blankets and put pillows between them. We thought we were brilliant and would have at least the 20 minutes left of the movie to eat. Two minutes later they were all up and wanting to play. We ended up just letting them play with whatever they wanted and having a nice dinner with very few interruptions. It is so nice to have friends with kids the same ages because you can just relax knowing that whatever your child does, theirs has or probably will do within a couple weeks as well. We loved just talking about our kids and the fun, silly, sweet, and naughty things they have each been doing. It was such a fun, memorable night. We are blessed to know these friends!
