The last few days it had been just me and the little man. (I hadn't advertised that, cuz you know, burglars? But the hubs was away on a leadership conference for work and the older two hooligans went to stay with their grandparents) They are all back safe and sound now, and the volume level has once again gone through the roof. As it should be around here.
We didn't do much. We snuggled and slept, went to a SuperBowl party (Where I ate lots of bad food and J was passed around and snuggled until his heart's content. Because he can't not be held. Or he screams. Loud.) and we also went grocery shopping before the Superbowl party. This was not the smartest thing I've ever done. Apparently everyone and their football-loving uncle go shopping right before the Superbowl starts. This is proven by the fact that the chip aisle was missing all the chips.
He slept pretty good (and in his own bed!) while it was just us. I think he knows he has his daddy wrapped around his finger and can get into our bed just by making those cute little squeaky noises in the wee-hours of the morning. Mommy is a little bit meaner. (Or maybe it's just that I slept with that kiddo in my belly for 38 weeks, and it's daddy's turn?)
Either way, we had a good few days together. Some fun bonding time just the two of us. But I'm glad to have my whole bunch back together. I've learned from the past few days quiet that as much as I like quiet...I don't really like when it's quiet for but so long. :)
The first shot is for Tones on Tuesday, Communal Global,
The last is for Sweet Shot.
20 Thoughts:
I so know how you feel. The little ones here have been sleeping over at their grandparents only a couple of times, but when they did, oh my. I was so looking forward to all the things I wanted to do with all that time I woudl have on my hands, but then, when they were gone, the house just felt awefully quiet en their rooms looked so empty. I am a big wuss. Motherhood revealed that without mercy :D
what a cutie! <3
You are so brave - I can't tell you how much I admire you. Up and about so soon after baby. And he's adorable!
Oh my he is so sweet...those little fingers and toes are so cute!
A little quiet is always good...coming and going.

Jocelyn loves to be held and she hasn't slept in her own bed yet! :)
What an absolute doll! I bet you did enjoy your alone time with him. I had a screamer-when-you-don't-hold-him baby too. It can be tough to deal with!
He is adorable. glad you two had a good time together.
Oh my- these totally give me baby fever!!! So cute! I hear you about shopping before the game- my hubs went out at 7am to get it done- it was even busy then.
Gosh, your little fellow is just too cute!!! Aren't all mommy's mean enough so as to not share their bed?? :D You have company my friend!!!
