Night on the Town


On Wednesday night we had a family date night.  The mouse was in town with his ice show and we knew we had to go.  Lucy is at such a fun age now because she likes to get dressed up and we can sit on my bed and do her hair and then my makeup together.  She's starting to figure out lip gloss and has started to give a pucker when she watches me put some on.  So the two of us got ready while we waited for Blake and then we were off.  We took Lucy to dinner at Little America and let's just say our "dream" girl at restaurants is fading fast.  She threw everything in front of her, squished mashed potatoes through the gap in her front teeth and has learned to climb out her high chair.  But she's still friendly and waved and said hi to every person in the restaurant.  This Miss also LOVED her reflection in the glass windows.  It was dark out and she loved the instant mirror.  She had on a sparkly bracelet and waved to herself to see the sparkles shimmer in the glass!  But I must admit growing up I was known to do something VERY similar in the mirror in my grandparents dining room every Sunday during dinner.  

So after dinner and dessert we headed to Disney on Ice.  It was so much fun to see Lucy enjoy the show.  She danced, waved her arms and clapped for the full two hours.  The only minor flip out was during intermission when she wanted to climb and move all around our seats.  But as soon as Blake got back with her $10. snow cone she settled in for the second act just fine.  

We love date nights - who doesn't?!  And it is so much fun with our little princess toad along for the ride.


how did she get so lucky with these eyelashes?  

yummy bug

waiting for the show to start

we love you so much Mickey - we'll see you in October!

at this point Blake was getting a tad creeped out I think

wild night!  after all of that sugar, skating and songs this girl tore out her bow and her buddha belly came out!
