Night Out

1. Jack is 2 months old

We have all survived another month.  We are starting to be in a routine and I am able to figure out a bit better what Jack needs.  This morning as I type I feel refreshed and hopeful.  It is such a different feeling than I had as I typed up a report when he turned a month old.  He is still a sweet, easy baby who loves to be held.  

2. First night out
This was our first official night out alone.  It was so great to reconnect with Mike.  It was much needed and well worth the day long hangover.  With Mike on the road the past 5 months I find myself getting into my own grove.  I tackle the week and then hand Jack over on the weekend.  It starts to wear on the soul.  It started to feel like our relationship was all business.  On Saturday we headed out.  We talked for hours and it was wonderful.  We took Uber to Blend, walked to Harry and Izzy's, walked back to Blend, and then took Uber home.  Yes--we went all out.  I feel so grateful to have such a fun man in my life.   We are going through some family changes in the next few months/years so I don't think we will have a big night out like this again for awhile.

Also - the reason we picked Blend was because Mike won the NCAA bracket bet AGAIN.  We bet every year on our brackets and his win included a trip to Blend.

3. Twins are coming home
It has been a nice spring break to spend some time with Jack alone but goodness it will be wonderful to feel the little arms of Cameron and Owen around my neck.

4. New Tire
This weekend my tire went all the way flat.  Right now my unbelievable mother in law is getting it fixed for me as I stay at home with Jack.

5. Hair Stylist
I have had a hard time finding someone to do my hair who I enjoy.  I was spoiled for years because Emily did my hair.  Once she stopped I eventually found someone at Lifetime.  That was awesome because of the free childcare.  Then she moved to Kansas so I tried to find someone new again.  Now I am back at Ciao Bella and with someone who I think is great.  She is so easy to talk to and I love my hair.
