John and I had another opportunity to head out into the world "on our own" yesterday thanks to our dear friends, Peggy and Art. How novel a "date" has become around here, and after a decade of going out fairly often and certainly whenever we pleased. At the same time, it amazes me that after only five months it feels strange to get out of the car sans diaper bag, without having to half-crawl into the backseat to unclip the hefty carseat, pull down the little sun-visor, and head out all together. Regardless of this, we were happy to leave O.K. in the capable arms of the Kaplans and head out to enjoy a carseat-less evening...
Oscar's first non-family babysitters AND his first time being "baby-sat" at someone else's house.
So we didn't go all high-class, so what? They were some tasty burgers, that's for sure...
Our post-Oscar dates have so far all included a movie at our now favorite "vintage" theater. We promise to branch out, but for now anyway, when we've had the chance, this has been our first choice.
Afterward, we stopped for a Guinness at an Irish Pub and, wouldn't you know, this cool thing was sitting in the basement. We also posed with one of our favorite local statues, but I'll save those pictures for another time...
