Boyz Day

Missy and some of her friends where having a girls day today so Jayden and I decided to have a boyz day!

He is not quite old enough to go to many places. I checked out the Family Fun Center up here but all the rides are for kids over 40inches tall so he's not quite there yet. I don't think he's quite ready for a movie yet either or it would have been Kung Fu Panda (would have been a second time for Dad. That movie rocks, go see it!).

So I decided we would start by hitting up the mall and letting Jayden flirt with all the girls in the play area. He had a blast and was sliding all over the place. Took a couple tumbles but the ground is some kind of bouncy astro-turf cuz he just sort of bounced off it and kept on going! After that we needed some breakfast/lunch so we went to the food court. I decided to try and take him to the Ruby restaurant at the mall. This could have been very stupid. I have never taken him to a restaurant by myself before so I was a little scared and he currently does not like sitting for more than 2 minutes. He did really good. He flirted with all the waitresses. They kept coming over and talking to him and he just laughed and laughed. They also have 2 trains that run around the whole place, he loved those. He also got 3 cardboard cars and sticker packs to play with so that helped a lot too. The food took for EVER to get to us. I was running out of ideas to entertain him and thought table dancing was going to be next! But thankfully he did not freek out and the food came and he was happy to munch on that.


Here he is looking at the train.

After we ate we headed back home. Side story - Heading for the car I noticed a car following me back to my spot (a very nice looking BMW). This is a real pet-peeve of mine. Mostly since we have had Jayden because it make me feel rushed because the person is waiting for my spot. I did have a sweet spot cuz I got there before the mall opened. But its not like the guy saw my parking lights coming on and stopped, he stalked me from the walk way all the way back to my car, with my son. So I took as long as I possibly could to put the little guy in his seat, get his stuff in the car and fold up his stroller. That took about 5-7 minutes and the guy just sat there waiting. Once it was all done I looked at him and said "Oh, I'm not leaving yet, sorry" *tee-hee* some times I can be so mean, but that felt good.

When we got home he took a nice long 3 hour nap and dad took a few winks too.

It was a rather warm day, even though it was overcast, so when he got up and we headed for the park. Ball, blanket, bubbles and a Kung Fu Panda Happy Meal in hand we headed for the big grassy plains of Silverlake Park. He had a blast kicking his ball around, chasing cotton from the trees and eating his french fries. There were lots of people at the park and lots of dogs. He tried to chase down the dogs and feed them french fries but they were a bit to quick for him.


Fry-guy

After a bit we left and shared a sunday from DQ. Then we came home, snuggled up and watched some toons before bed time.

A good day.
