Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy, happy Birthday Daddy!

My mother came up to take Marc out for his birthday at the Cheesecake Factory. That's one of our favorite places to eat and apparently it's everyone else's. There was about an hour wait to be seated, we decided to wait it out. While we waited Xavier remembered his favorite place...the escalators, Ugh. Well at least the escalator takes us to the coin operated cars. That took up most of time as we waited for our seats. Xavier was good for the most part. Mom suggested that Marc should go sit on a massage chair as we waited. Good idea mom! Meanwhile Xavier started to get a little cranky so we went into the five dollar store. Lollipops work wonders when he gets restless. We always try to keep them handy when we take him shopping. When the lollipop lost its super powers it was time to call in Daddy. Like a true super hero Daddy saved the day. As my mom and I went into the restaurant, Marc took Xavier to nearby toy store. Ten minutes later we were called to be seated and in walks Daddy with Xavier, perfect timing. What a long wait, Xavier wouldn't have been the only one that needed a lollipop. We had a wonderful brunch. Anytime we go out to eat Xavier always gives a big hello and smile to the waiter(ess). He's not shy at all, he lets everyone know hes happy and excited to be wherever he is. We are so proud of him. When the appertizers came to the table Xavier was showing signs that he was tired. By Sucking on his pacifier, gently laying his head and carressing my arm. Xavier didn't want to eat his mac' and cheese and instead ate my fries with ketchup. At the end of our meal Xavier and I were so tired. I'm feeling under the weather and it was past nap time. Then all the waiters came out singing happy birthday to Marc. Xavier blew out the candle, we had dessert then it was time to leave. We all thanked my mother for coming and taking Marc out for his birthday. Xavier didn't want grandma to leave. He cried and she'd give him even more kisses with hugs. Thanks grandma for coming to visit. Now it was nap time or so we thought...
