I’ve been busy with work this week and this morning I left the house at 6 am to go to work and didn’t return until 6:30 pm, which means I got hang out with Shane in the morning because he wakes up super early but I didn’t get to see Ms. Chloe all day. So after putting Shane down for the night, I took Chloe out for a little quality time. We went to Crewcuts in River Side and bought a couple of shirts and hairbands for Chloe, then we went to the Cheese Cake factory for dinner. The place was packed and we couldn’t get a table right away and of course, Chloe saw big cheese cakes while waiting, so I decided to take a slice to go. We set down at one of those comfy chairs in the mall and had mozzarella sandwich and also had the piece of strawberry cheese cake for dessert. I have to say Chloe behaved very well throughout the night. When we went into stores, she pointed out different things and named each of them like, pink boots! pretty necklace! oh so pretty bag! this is mommy’s dress! oh i want this shoes, etc… She was so excited that she got to see so many pretty things but did not once try to take them. We also went on the escalators SIX times and she would scream with excitement every time she got on which drew other people’s attention. Some parents gave me ‘i understand…how cute…’ smiles.

We were having so much fun that I lost track of the time and we ended up coming home around 9:30 pm which is way past her bed time. When I got into the car and checked my cell phone I had 12 missed calls from home. Andrew on the other hand was worried sick at home because he thought Chloe and I went for a walk and did not know where we were. So I told Chloe to tell dad not to be mad when we got home. She gave me the ‘don’t worry mom, I got this one’ nod. Amazingly enough, as soon as Andrew opened the door Chloe went, "Daddy, don’t be mad, we are home now." with a huge smile and hug… I was SO impressed and very proud… 🙂
