Embarrassing Moments...

Oh I'm sure this is is just one of MANY more embarrassing moments to come...
It was a beautiful day that I had a play date with Nate so off we went to North Van for shoe shopping and we hit the jackpot, $50 frigin dollars later! Man I haven't even spent that on my shoes, ROFL. But he didn't complain and was running around the store like a freak so it was a done deal.
Next we headed down to Lonsdale Quay for lunch and some playtime. Had a very nice lunch of Fish n Chips which Nate's newest achievement is using a fork and he's very good at it. That was until this happened... he was trying to get a french fry on the fork with a skill full slow motion stab but the french fry had other ideas. It was launched into the air with a force that I didn't even know a fry could have!!! I look at the table behind Nate right in my view as one of the women sitting there looks at me and I ask sheepishly... "did you see that?" She nods her head and says "yes, what was it?" The other lady says "what?" I giggle as I feel my cheeks light up a crimson red and say "my son just launched a french fry into the air and I don't know where it landed..." A few seconds later the second lady announces "here it is!" as she pulls it out of her salad. OMFG! I wanted to die but I couldn't help but laugh cause it was pretty funny. I apologized and she was all good with it but deep down inside I was crawling under a rock dragging Nate behind me, HA HA HA! Oh the joys of kids.
We checked out the play area upstairs and all it is is a ball pit with one spiral slide. Well off came the new shoes and mommy throws Nate into the balls. He sat there throwing balls and enjoying himself when I decide he should try the slide, hee hee hee. So not age appropriate but hey he'll learn fast right? Well we make our way up the stairs and get to the top and I look into the slide which is completely dark as it's a tube of death to a toddlers, I'm sure of it, hee hee hee. I figure Nate would balk and not go in but he sits down and scoots forward and down he goes! There is a weird noise and I think he's gotten stuck and I bolt down the stairs only to hit my head on a low beams cause I'm about 3.5 feet too tall for this play area, HA HA HA... As I look at the bottom of the slide Nate pops out face first on his stomach o_O !!! Oh my, I guess that noise was him spinning around in the spiral, ha ha ha. Well he didn't cry and he even went for a second ride but this time he was sitting up when he came out the bottom so he did learn. We played for a little while but I got bored fast so off we went for a walk outside in the beautiful sunshine before we had to come home.
I love my playdates with Nate.
