Life has been busy, hectic, crazy. I feel like I’ve been writing that a lot
lately. I didn’t even have time for a
weekend recap yesterday. It went
something like this: Saturday – errands with W(bank, Target, shoe store), lunch
at Sweet Tomatoes, haircut for W, and a date with A to end the day. By Saturday evening, it was becoming apparent
that W was coming down with a cold and by Sunday morning he was congested. We still went to church because W was still acting
like himself. But then at Starbucks, W did
his spit up thing. As you can imagine,
that was loads of fun. I never realized
kids did this with colds, but W does it any time there is extra mucous. Sorry to be gross. But this is completely new territory for me. Yuck.
We had planned to go grocery shopping after breakfast, but we never made
it.
Yesterday, S came down with the same cold. As you can imagine, it was a super long day
for Nani. Both boys have been really
cranky and not sleeping well. And the
icing on the cake is that I have a business trip this week. I fly to Texas tomorrow. And I’m sure the cold will hit me while I’m
on the plane and A while he’s attempting to care for two cranky boys because
that just seems to be our luck. We’re in
survival mode.
BUT I do want to highlight our date night because that was
so fun and very much needed. A and I don’t
get out much, which is to be expected with two littles. Our moms watch the boys during the week and
we don’t really know anyone (or trust anyone) to watch them during the weekends. Family and friends are busy with their own
kiddos. That means we never go out. So as an anniversary gift, my mom offered to
watch the boys and gave us a certificate to a new local restaurant. A and I LOVED it. I ordered wine. A ordered a fancy cocktail that I can’t seem
to remember the name of. I had the brick
oven mole chicken and A had a filet. So
so yummy. Then we ordered the chocolate
fountain for dessert. It was so great to
be able to relax and talk to one another without being interrupted 50393
times. It was also great to be
surrounded by adults and normal conversation (versus yelling). I can’t even remember the last time the two
of us went out for dinner. And I’m not
saying I don’t love the constant toddler chatter and baby babble – this was
just a nice change of pace. I’m happy we
got some quality time together.
