time

Monday afternoon Joe insisted I take Sydney out for supper for some Mommy and Sydney time. I jumped at the opportunity! I haven't had a chance to just spend time with Sydney...just the two of us....alone...together since before Gavin arrived. We went and ate pizza, shared a salad, and enjoyed some ice cream before coming home. It was wonderful. I have felt guilty all summer long about not being able to spend the amount of time with her that I wanted or that I was used to before having Gavin. Of course I wouldn't change a thing about having him with us--that isn't my point at all. I have just struggled most with balancing the time I need to spend with him and the time I want/need to spend with Sydney. Anyhow, it was great just to enjoy Sydney at dinner and afterwards and get to have some lovely uninterrupted time with her. Now that we know Joe and Gavin survived each other maybe we can do this more often! Thank you Daddy/Joe for making our night possible!

  2. I wondered if you had been able to have time with just him yet! I definitely want to do it again and I hope you can too with Noah!

  3. I told Ed about it and he said..no I want to do that! :) However, our school has a skate night coming up and I think I'll take him to that. It will be a little later of a night but I think Noah would have fun!

  4. See you guys can take turns! Can you imagine how Noah would feel-both parents to himself on different occasions?! :) The skate night sounds like a blast!
