Wow... tonight my brother and sister in law are going to babysit the boys for us and take them overnight!!!
We asked them to babysit for us for Saturday cuz we have a baby shower to go to. And they offered to take the boys from Friday night through Saturday. We said YES!
Connor is old enough now that I won't feel to bad or too worried about him being without us.
I would worry before cuz he was good with making himself sick with crying. But these days he's doing better with putting himself to sleep and sleeping for most of the night. He still cries like a mad kid when I'm not around, but after about an hour of that, he gives up and deals with the fact that I'm not. So they will have to listen to him screaming for a bit tonight when we leave, and then again when he wants to go to sleep and he knows it's not his crib that he's in to sleep. But that's ok... They offered to take them overnight.. we've warned them! So they can't say we didn't.
Glen will probably be a little upset, but once they get him playing, he won't notice too much that we are gone. I'm getting their bag together with their clothes and extra clothes, swim trunks, DVD's that calms the savage beast (a.k.a. Connor/ "Curious Buddies" and "Little Einstein"), bottles, diapers, wipes, blankies, some toys. I know I'll forget something. Oh yeah, some snacks they like, FOOD. lol.
We figure we drop the kids off, then head over to Applebee's for dinner. Maybe hit the bookstore, then come home to an apartment without children to disturb our bedroom dancing!! YeeHaaa!! (TMI? tough noogie, hehehee), Oh wait, that's if we aren't too exhausted from the long week of kids throwing up in the night, having high fevers early in the week, and coughing all freakin night longgggg. *sigh*
Who am I kidding. With toddlers you take the chance when you can get it!
