Last night husband and I took Monkey to my Mom's work. She was taking him for the night to give husband and I a little "break". I love living close enough to my mama to where when we need/want to we can call her up and she is always SO willing to take him. Sometimes it is so we can move into our new place without worrying about him, sometimes it is so we can go to a movie, last night it was so we could go grocery shopping without him. (Although that was not the original plan)
It is always nice to be able to just worry about myself for a few moments. I always miss my little guy when he is gone, but I know he is getting SPOILED by his Nana and both of his aunts!
Husband and I were going to go to a movie and then treat ourselves to din din...but we ended up going grocery shopping, making hamburgers and were both in bed by 10.
Today we relaxed in bed, took our time getting ready, bought husband a boogy board...and spent a little bit of time lounging on the beach before coming home to nap.
I love these moments we get to be just us. I already know how important it is to make it a point to spend time just us. Some weeks our "date" consists of him, me, Smores Ice Cream, and the t.v. some nights its a movie, some nights it is whatever is "good" on t.v. We talk, we laugh, we sit and stare at the t.v. in silence. Whatever it is, it is always exactly what I/WE need.
Both of us never planned to be parents as early in our relationship as we were. We never thought we would be married by now...well maybe married just no baby. I thought we would have years of hanging out until the wee hours of the morning with our other younger friends/couples. Dropping everything to run off for the weekend/day. Being completely involved with our selves. Things are different then we had planned. Our relationship at times is still very much in that "newly wed" stage. Some of it good and some of it...not so much. But I love it. Every single minute of it.
It sometimes is crazy, and overwhelming but it is still wonderful, fantastic, and amazing, It is OUR life.
