Family night

We went out for Thai food last night.  Esme loves it.  She's a pretty picky eater right now, but it's perfect because we order her a side of white rice and a side of steamed chicken and she is thrilled.  Eats it right up!  Believe it or not, she even eats Jalapeno poppers with us.  If you don't know what they are, they're cream cheese wantons with jalapenos in them.  Only the best thing ever.

Before we ate, we ran to REI to pick up a couple of things and Esme found a new hat that she picked out herself and loves.  It just happened to match her outfit. Despite our best efforts (j/k) she's kind of turning into a little fashionista.

The next pictures are my favorites.  Please ignore their blurriness.  It was dark in the restaurant and for whatever reason, I have the one iphone in the world that takes crappy pictures.  Esme decided that she wanted to try chopsticks.  They have little "helpers" for kids that hold the chopsticks together.  She didn't do too bad for her first time.

 

She starts off great with the chopsticks, but ultimately the hands still work the best. :)  She did great though and didn't even get any food on her outfit!  And since Thai is Aaron's and my favorite, she will have plenty of time to practice with those chopsticks in the future, possibly with a new hat on.
