Dinner Party - New Parent Style
BYOB now means Bring Your Own Baby.
The other night our good friends Amanda and Bryan were over for dinner. We grilled some steaks, threw together a salad, opened a bottle of wine and called it a meal. Evan (15 mths) sat at the table so nice and politely dropped his EasyMac on the floor piece by piece. Maia sat in her highchair and made continuous buzzing/spitting noises. (Pbbbbtttthhhh - pbbbthhhhhh-ba ba ba- pbbbbth) The meal ended when Evan started throwing the EasyMac against the wall (SPLAT) and Maia's shirt was soaked with spit.
We then moved to the living room where we let the kids have free reign with toys. The best toy, is clearly Sophie Kitty. Poor Soph couldn't walk past the room without Evan yelling, "Kitty!" and Maia making her "ah ah ah - I'm so excited" noise.
Later that evening, we decided to give both the kids a bath. Bryan was pleased that his son was finally having a bath with a girl (apparently, Evan's only bathed with boys in the past). Brian/Doogie was mildly concerned that Evan would get the wrong idea about Maia and think that she's easy. Evan learned quickly why you don't bend over in the tub in front of a girl. No worries folks, we took pictures. We now have blackmail pictures of our children.
