Mommy and Me Monday

Yesterday was quite eventful (and a bit stressful too). I went to a "Mommy and Me" event at the Dallas Arboretum with of course, my two little ones (2 year old and 7 month old) and my other mom friend Cathy and her 4 month old daughter. This was another event for our moms group. I really wanted to check out this famous Dallas nature spot so I was very excited to go.

I could say, we really enjoyed the event. It was held in an outdoor grassy area with grown trees all around. The place is part of the arboretum called the Pecan Grove. My two year old Gabriel enjoyed running all over the place and enjoyed all the pumpkins. There were lots of mommies with their kids also. We participated in a Kindermusik class while we were there and took lots of cool pictures with our kids.

The only minus to this event was that the air was too humid and we were all sweating like crazy so we had to cut the outing short. We then went to have lunch at a nearby Filipino restaurant afterwards. My 2 year old was already tired and cranky by this time and didn't like being strapped in the high chair, so we had to leave sooner too..ugh!

I told my friend Cathy that I usually don't go out to outdoor events or restaurants by myself with my little ones. I always do these types of actvities with my hubby. So yeah, I could say I enjoyed these activities but just it was a little stressful for me. I was soooooooo tired I went to sleep real early last night--at about 10:30 PM..which is rare. I usually go around midnight or 1AM. But I guess, I'm not complaining. We still went home tired, but happy. :)
