Daddy Dates

3 days a week, different areas within a 5 min drive of our house have concert series during the summer. Last night it was raining though, so it was moved indoors. Joel knew Liam would like the music, so he took him to the concert on a little "daddy date", giving me a break of only having to watch Aiden, and letting me have a free evening to hull strawberries and make jam all night long. I think they had more fun... :)

I was worried that Liam would get bored, but apparently not. This is only a short version. I'll try to remember (for my parents) to put the long version up as soon as Joel puts it on the comp. I guess he pretty much did this the full hour+ they were there. And he melted the hearts of all the old people around- they didn't realize they'd get to hear AND see entertainment that night!

Afterwards, the daddy date took them to walgreens, where Joel wanted to quick print off a picture. While they were waiting they browsed the card section. Apparently Liam liked one of the cards and kept opening up that card (a hoops and yoyo talking card about bff's). Joel bought it figuring he'd give it to me sometime. Well, when they came in the house and Joel shut the garage door, Liam freaked out and kept saying "B" over and over. We could not figure out what he wanted, and finally Joel said "show me". Well, Liam took him out into the garage, and indicated he wanted Joel to open the garage door and go out to his car. Then Liam climbed in and got the "B"FF card that he figured Joel forgot! So I got my card a little earlier then planned :)

Joel's hoping to have more "daddy dates" with the boys (Liam for now), so hopefully with the start of a new year next week, we will have more free evenings!
