And Quinn is adorable. The thing I didn't learn about until all four of my kids were old enough to make eating out a little easier (and Raven really prefers eating out) is that there is a certain kind of restaurant, maybe not Red Robin, but like the neighborhood Thai restaurant where they get to know you and love to see you and your kid come in for whatever reason, but if you take home the menu, you can call them before coming in and have food ordered before you get to the restaurant so that you don't have that long stretch of time to entertain the child while you wait for them to bring food out to you.
