C’s first night at the taco
We have a local Mexican restaurant called Senor Taco; we call it the Taco. It’s not the best food in the world, but we like it. It’s the only place in town with a salsa bar, the food is relatively cheap, and it’s never too crowded. But mostly we just like it because it’s close by and we’re used to it.
Well, tonight was C’s first night at the Taco. I guess I should’ve brought a camera to commemorate the occasion. Charlotte, when you’re older and looking over these archives, know that your first visit to the Taco - a restaurant I’m sure you’ll love by then/now - was when you were three weeks old to the day. I think you liked it, although I also think you got some food dribbled on you. Sorry about that.
And now we’re back from our Taco outing and I’m exhausted. I definitely ate too much, but that’s not all. I am grateful beyond words for Katie getting up whenever C cries at night. Really, I’m not the one she wants, but I’m sure I could take some kind of shift. But Katie does all the lifting.
Just because I don’t get up, though, doesn’t mean I’m getting great sleep. C usually gets one to two good periods of rest each night. She usually sleeps for a few hours at the beginning and maybe two solid hours last thing in the morning. In between, she sleeps and wakes, sleeps and wakes. Katie gets up each time she’s needed, but even though I’m not getting up every time, I do get woken over and over again all night. I don’t think I’ve gotten any deep sleep in a month.
Anyway, the Taco was good, C. I think you’ll like it.

Oh, I miss Senor Taco! Fish tacos with plenty of lime juice and onions and whatever that weird green (not tomatillo) salsa is. And beer. Yum.
Charlotte will have to take it easy on the pickled carrots, tho. They’re hot!
gah! just dont look up their health department ratings.
Good food, but when we got home my husband started puking. I found the health department website while he was in the bathroom. Lowest rating of any resteraunt in knoxville. I believe at one point they had a score in the 60’s?
When I told him he laughed, Im sure we’ll still eat there.
Their current score is 84, which is not terrible. I’ve probably eaten there at least a hundred times in the last 10(?) years and can’t recall ever getting sick afterward.
We keep a camera in our diaper bag because we never know what events we’ll want to commemorate! It gets used a lot.
