Fathers Day week!

Well, its was a long time coming, but my first official Fathers Day finally arrived (although Shonna and I did cheat and celebrate both Mothers and Fathers Day last year). What a day! I woke up with 3 generations in the house, had brunch at Eat Bar, Dropped Nana off at Reagan, went swimming with Scarlett for the first time, then had pizza and beer. Thanks mom and Scarlett! I received awesome sunglasses, and some fun family swimming toys as well. Scarlett was her usual self. Smiling, playing, grinning for strangers, and of course not sleeping. Scarlett would rather perform for a crowd than take a nap. On top of that, she considers ANY amount of sleep a full nap. For example, she slept for 10 minutes in the car yesterday, woke when we returned home, and acted as if she slept for 2 hrs. She did the same thing today after brunch (5 min), but we REALLY wanted a nap as well, so waited her out and she finally went down again after an hour. She was up 45 min later... Regardless, she is fantastic. I've said it before but we are soooo lucky with Scarlett. We can take her anywhere and she just goes along with it. No fuss, lots of smiles. I hope all Fathers Days will be as good as today was.

Was it all perfect? Heck no! Eat Bar (bar/restaurant) HAD the greatest brunch meal I've ever tasted, pastrami hash, and they cut it from their menu. If it doesn't sound good to you then you haven't tried it. Eat Bar has a habit of dropping great dishes from their menu. Shonna's favorite used to be their grilled cheese and tomato soup. According to Shonna, its the best grilled cheese she has ever had, and believe me she is an expert. I'm sure Scarlett will get Shonna's grilled cheese lover genes, and fully expect to stock the house with Campbell's tomato soup and Kraft. The only other issue today was that IT WAS 97 DEGREES and we wanted to spend the day outside. We would have sucked it up, but I read somewhere that scorching sun isn't very good for 7 month olds, especially those with mommy and daddy's pigmentation.

As for the rest of the week, Nana wrote a blog so you know my mom was in town. We had a great time, and we couldn't have appreciated her help more. Our day care provider was out of town, and Nana allowed us to work, interview, and go out on a date. A DATE! I believe it was our 2nd one this year... and at least this time we chose a good movie this time. "Get Him to the Greek" is pretty entertaining, much better than "Hot Tub Time Machine". Its possible that the movie was funnier due to the wine, but we will let you know when it comes out on video.

Thanks Nana!
