Public embarrasment: you'd think that I would be used to it...

Of course, they HAD to seat us in the middle of the restaurant... Sara and I had our first bout of public embarrassment Sunday night when Charlotte decided to have her first major inconsolable public crying fit. I know that this is just going to have to be something that I get used to (and I am actually surprised that it took 3 months to get that notch in our belts) but never before have I had that feeling of being such a public nuisance; at least not since my insensitive and raucous Junior High School days.

Additionally, have I never had the thought of going up to another table, apologizing, and offering to pay their tip. I did seriously think about it though. Then I came to my senses and realized that it's likely not their first, and it won't be their (or our) last. Besides, paying other people's gratuities is not a habit that I have any interest in getting into.

Realistically, we are probably being too hard on ourselves seeing as most every other party in our section came by noting how cute they thought our 3-monther was... they may have just been trying to be nice though.

Funny though, the table of four who were doing sign-language all evening didn't say anything... hmmmm....
