Jay and I decided that we needed to get out of the house last night and being that it was a nice night, we decided to go out to eat somewhere walkable. We walked to Matt's Rancho Martinez last Friday and Molly seemed to enjoy the stagnant Dallas July air, so we thought "why not?". We went to the same Thai food restaurant (see first post). She was quite pleasant during the ride over there and we had several comments from neighbors wanting to stop and look at her as we stolled by. However, as soon as we got inside the restaurant and parked the buggy at the table...small whimpers. The small whimpers turned into big wails by the end of the meal and we found ourselves jogging home with her in the stroller to get her to calm down (which she did after about a block of jogging). East Dallas sidewalks can make for a perilous journey after dark, so we really had to slow down to navigate the minefield on the way back home. This was a 2nd trip with her (not counting the pre-natal visit) and both times she has found the experience unpleasant. It's almost as if she remembers the trauma that ensued the day after her first visit there in May.
