September 2nd is the first day my husband and I will be going on a date for the first time since our son was born!
With his recent promotion, upcoming Birthday and my mom chomping at the bit to watch The Dude, we went to one of my Hubs favorite restaurants - The Rustic Inn, sans baby. **Insert panic here**
This place is a South Florida legend for their crabs. The waiter comes around, ties a bib on your neck (much like my son!) and hands you a mallet, for cracking crabs. He loves seafood whereas the smell alone makes me nauseated. BUT! He really wanted to go there and GO we did!
Thinking we could handle not having The Dude, we proceed in to the restaurant where a nice hostess seats us by the water (The restaurant is located of the intracostal-sort of) and we start perusing the menu. Our server comes up with waters and take our order....at this point we have only been there for 5, maybe 10 minutes. The hostess seats a family of 5 in front of us- they have two children; girls- the younger is around 2, the other is closer to 7. At this point, this "panicky first time mom, first time away for a long period of time" checks in with Nana (what he calls my mother). "We are fine! Walking around! Take your time!". OK, good. Everything is good.
Insert crying here. Yup. I get all teary eyed since The Dude is not with us, and there is a super cutie at the table in front of us. So we NOM, have dessert (Key Lime Pie!) have coffee and set off back home!
All in all, we were only gone for 2 hours. My mother in law also wants to babysit her grandson. They live quite a distance from us so we are planning an outing in their next of the woods so she can have quality baby time!
How was your Long Weekend? Did you do anything fun??
