Family Celebration & Allergic

Last night as a family we did something we haven't done in forever!!
A local resturant offered "kids eat free" coupons, so we decided to go celebrate Jestin's new job as a family by going out to dinner together! :)
We called ahead and they told us 20 minutes wait time.
We drove over and "checked in".
They said it would be just a few more minutes, 20 tops!
(we were in large family/"deal" addict land after all LOL)
We waited over 40 minutes more.
Finally Jes went and asked.
Yep. They totally skipped us.
We finally got seated and it took 15 minutes to get our orders taken, and another 30 minutes to get our food!
(and really...there were empty tables! They just didn't have enough help for such a promotion!)
It took us almost 3 hours to go out to eat! Sheesh!
And then, everyone of our meals had something missing that they had to be reminded about. *sigh*
We won't be doing that again ANY TIME SOON!!
I could have cooked, served, cleaned up AND watched half a movie with my family for that amount of time and with better food! LOL
(see how I am?)
My little Caleb insisted he wanted the side of fresh pineapple with his dinner.
We didn't think anything of it.
He took one bite and said that he couldn't swallow it, it hurt his throat.
He tried to eat some of his other food after spitting out the pineapple, but within 10 minutes time he was crying that his mouth and throat hurt and he felt like he was going to puke.
Jes took him to the bathroom, where he did throw up the small amount of food he had eaten.
His tounge looked a little swollen, but it was mostly his throat.
We gathered up our dinner and headed out.
What a fun time! ha ha

No more fresh pineapple for Caleb!
(my poor baby!)

On a cute side note, before he got sick, I offered him a fried mozarella stick. He looked doubting so I told him it was just a melted cheese stick (one of his favs). His reply?
"No tanks... I don't like mine wif upgrades"

Bwahahahaha!!
