at an alarming pace!
My Mom is on her way here right now. I should be overjoyed, yet there’s a feeling of trepidation. Why you ask?
She’s on her way for a babysitting job. Hubs and I are heading out tomorrow afternoon for our first vacation WITHOUT Bear. I’m thrilled and nervous at the same time.
We’re heading about 40 minutes away to a Bed and Breakfast for some quality adult time. We’ll cook dinner together and eat (hopefully not in awkward-we-don’t-know-what-to-talk-about-besides-Bear silence) and just relax. We have a few visits planned for Saturday and just some relaxing downtime.
Yesterday was a rough day. Bear refused to nap and the only thing I needed was one hour to lay down. I hadn’t slept much the night before (my knee was bugging me, stupid humidity) and all I wanted was to lay down.
I finally called Hubs and cried/vented to him, made myself a cup of coffee and dusted myself off.
We started over. We went to the bank and I had to sing scream “Skinnamarink” and “This Old Man” to keep him awake on the 4 mile drive. We abandoned our trip to Target because of his heavy eyes, came home and got ready for bed. I pajama’d him, gave him a bottle and medicine, rocked him, and laid him down. 45 minutes later he was still awake.
I surrendered. Hubs came home and I went and finished mowing the lawn. He played with Bear until about 7 (2 hours after I put him down, 13 hours since he awoke for the day) and he finally went to bed.
Pictures to come after this weekend. I need it.
