A Day Just for Me?

So my parents are in town helping with little K.  They are doing a "trial run" in taking care of her while her daddy and I skip off to Vegas for a little R & R later this month.  I had to pretend I was not in the  house so she could think my parents were the ones there to play with her and feed her.  This was completely strange to me, yet I fully allowed myself to embrace the time alone.  As I laid in bed with my coffee and contemplated on what to do,  I thought about just staying put in my comfy p.j.'s and doing nothing, but there was so much to be done without a little one in hand, and so I quickly gathered myself together.  I took this opportunity to shop and shop I did.  I haven't shopped like that since I was a single lady and didn't have anything but time on my hands.  I tell you it was a beautiful experience. The day ended nicely at dinner with two fabulous ladies.  Thanks so much to my parents for a day to myself, but I sure did miss my little K.....I did sneak in a little time with her though....ha ha.

  1. The first time I went out without the baby, I felt like I had left my leg at home. It's both strange and wonderful at the same time.
