One thing that I know we should do more of is for D and I to take turns spending one-on-one time with k and n. Saturday night we had that chance because D took k to an Angels game with her girl scout troop. I ended up taking n to IHOP to redeem a coupon for a free “Rooty Tooty Fresh & Fruity” (“RTF&F”).
We had the place pretty much to ourselves. I guess no one really goes to IHOP at 5 p.m. on a Saturday night.
Sorry for the blurry picture. Did you know that they actually took the RTF&F off the menu? I thought that was their signature item?! It is still available as a secret off the menu special. I was surprised at the boatload of bacon they gave us. Maybe I am just too used to IKEA breakfasts!
As an added surprise, I took n to Yogurtland afterward. n was elated—it is not difficult to make him happy! We ended our night at home by reading tons of books on a bed of blankets on our living room floor. We fell asleep, and D and k joined us when they returned home after 11 p.m.! It was a nice night of mother-son bonding.
