Kaelyn's 1st date

I think it is really important for Kaelyn and Sadie to have a special relationship with their daddy. It is not only important for their self esteem, but also to help them realize when the get older (much, much older) what type of boy or man they should be with. And how a man should treat a woman. The importance of respect, love and communication in a relationship.

I had some family friends from back home do this with their daughters and I thought what a great idea.
And so a new tradition has started. Daddy Date night. Kaelyn (and eventually Sadie) will get all dressed up once a month and go on a special date with Daddy. They will get to choose where they go to dinner and any extra special activity they will do.

Kaelyn was so excited to go. She picked out a very special dress, which she told me was "Daddy's favorite." And yes it is her Christmas dress. And she even had to put on jewelry. Today's choice a lei!! Perfect.
The Restaurant: Panda Express
The Food: Chinese noodles, vegetables, pink lemonade, fortune cookie and a chocolate chip cookie.
Special activity: Shopping at Ross, where she picked out a new dress and a shirt for Jack. (got to love my little shopper)

They both had so much fun!

And yes, Jack will get to do "Boys night out" with Daddy once a month too!!
