Mercy Making Her Way in the World

Okay guys... we'll go through this one more time: eat, sleep, THEN poop. Seriously I think my parents are making this waaaay too complicated.

Mercy had a couple of firsts today. I suppose that will be the case for a while. She had her first trip to downtown Los Angeles to enjoy our beautiful government bureaucracy. Actually they were surprisingly helpful and kind at the birth records counter.

After that she had her first trip to a restaurant. Fortunately it was just after 11am and at Carrow's where the score of senior citizens didn't mind her bellowing for her share of lunch. I'm not sure which was more comical, the 88 year old lady at the next table who said she couldn't even remember her children being babies or the lady who remarked to her friend as they passed our table as if finishing a long lunch conversation, "This world is so tragic." Hey, at least they beat the lunch rush if nothing else.
