Weekend time! I’m am pretty excited for this weekend because Matt and I are getting a little 24-hour staycation in the city. Without L. This is actually going to be my very first night without him since he was born over 16 months ago. Kind of crazy! I know I’ll miss him a lot but it will be really nice to have a little adult time, especially since that means sleeping in on Sunday. And by sleeping in, I mean waking up a 5:30 anyway but not moving until I feel like it. Ha! Our agenda consists mainly of eating and eating. Oh yeah, some shopping and walking around sans stroller, too.
L loves to give hugs to his friends
Any good stories for me about the first time you spent a night away from your children (if you have)? In a few months I’ll be away for two nights (I know, crazy talk) for my sister’s bachelorette party so this will be good practice.

awww L and his friiiends!
And I hope you and Matt had a great night-I hope you enjoyed it and didn’t stress too much about being away from L!
L with his friends is too cute! My little one is scared of stuffed animals. I have been away a couple times since she was born about 12 months ago. The first time was a work trip and I didn’t know what to do with myself. Nothing to clean and no one to take care of!
it’s ALWAYS difficult to be away from them! the first time I had to leave P overnight was for 4 whole nights when she was only 5 months old. I cried the entire way from pre-daycare drop-off through getting through airport security. Luckily FaceTime helps, and also knowing that it’s good for you, him, and your husband to get away once in a while :) Hope you had a blast – I LOVE that idea!!
