Dinner Out....Gone Bad

We rarely dare anymore to go out to dinner with Emmi these days. First of all you never know if it will be the time she eats well, or when she takes a bite and says, "all done" and fights you until you let her down and then she roams the restaurant and begs for everyones attention around her.

So tonight was the night we dared to go out. Now, we didn't set our expectations too high. We went fast food thinking how can you go wrong? We walked into "Eat a Burger" with high hopes it would be an enjoyable meal. Boy were we mistaken.

First of all, we ordered her a kids meal....why do we ever do that? She never eats it. Second, all she would do is dip her fry in the sauce and then lick the sauce. There's a point when you call that quits. When you look over and she is still working on the same fry and the sauce is gone. We told her to bite the dang fry. So she does. Somehow she doesn't chew it and tries to swallow it whole. She starts choking. Finally she got the fry back up with several blows to the back. Nevermind the sound effects here people. Then she starts coughing with her smokers cough that she can't kick. All of sudden everything comes back up. I mean fountain of throw-up. All over our food, down her, and all over the seat. We just sit there looking at each other. Emmi says, "I throw up" No???????? really??????

The sweet girls helped us clean everything up. Appetites are now gone and we kinda just slither ourselves out of the place with Emmi's clothes in a garbage sack and a naked girl. Fun Saturday night out eh???

I seriously haven't been able to stop laughing about your dinner disaster and I've read it three times. You painted a really good picture. Emmi is so dang cute. What are the chances she would choke on the one bite she takes. Hilarious

Funny story now, but I'm sure it was not so funny at the moment. I hope that everything is going o.k. with your pregnancy. I miss seeing you at work. I feel like I haven't seen you in forever. Send me your e-mail address, please, so that I can invite you to our blog.

Eating out is always an adventure! It sounds like Emmi, throwing up, and eating out go hand in hand. Remember when we went out to eat last summer. I think Emmi got sick on the way to dinner. What a silly little girl!

You guys are so brave! I couldn't help but laugh, but I am sure it wasn't funny at the time. She is lucky she is so cute huh?

The dreaded eating out! That sounds pretty miserable. Last time we went out Brady decided to poop his pants, and of course we had no spare pants. Don't you love the looks you get taking a naked kid out in this kind of weather:)

You guys really know how to party! I am glad that she got the fry up! Minus the other stuff!
