The magic of booth seats

Digging into our dinner ...

The things that we find ourselves doing, now that we're parents ...

I am constantly amused by how Johan and I have morphed into parents since the arrival of Sera. Following our very successful dinner at the fast food joint, where Sera happily stood on the booth seat while we ate dinner, we have now gone as far as to make a list of restaurants in Doha (that we know of) that have similar seating booths. Now that has to seem ridiculous to some, especially those who don't have children, but trust me it isn't. Eating at home together can be a challenge ... going out for a meal, now that is near to impossible.

However, that has somehow changed since we discovered booth seating. Ha ha. I forget to mention that Sera doesn't like to sit in baby chairs. I think it's a bit too restrictive for her ... hmm, she really is my daughter!

Yesterday, we found ourselves going out for dinner, just because we had to run an errand prior to dinner so there wasn't time for me to cook. Ahem, I do cook on a regular basis, don't assume otherwise. We went to our favourite Indian restaurant near our house. And what do you know, they had booth seats! You should have seen Sera, she was just beside herself ... could barely hide her excitement. Not only did she stand throughout dinner, she had some naan and cottage cheese! That girl never ceases to amuse us!

And as always, I had my camera with me to catch little moments like this.
