weaned.
My baby boy has officially weaned himself. I tried to do it on my schedule, and he wasn't having it, but he is now finished on his terms! Lesson learned: this little guy is going to do things his way! It is bittersweet, surprisingly, but my little guy is growing up and as much as I don't want to see him grow so fast, it is amazing to see him grow into a sweet little boy! I'll miss our time together but we'll have to find something else to do so we can spend those few moments together everyday.

just the two of us
Life has been busy. I don't even really have anything to show for all this time that has flown by, well maybe a brand spankin' new bathroom that looks freaking awesome, but other than that I think life is just rushing past and we're along for the ride.
For the first time in months (?), I had 24 hours of just me and my guy. We dropped the kids off with my parents and took off to do infinate errands. It was sooo overdue.
We just hung out, ran around in the unmarked white van, picked out stuff for the bathroom, went grocery shopping, sang ridiculously off key to ridiculous songs, took an unexpected roadtrip out of town to a store that was just "5 minutes away". To finish the day we prettied ourselves up and went for a fancy schmancy dinner, although we still felt somebody would come over at any moment and escort us back to Montana's where we belong. We had a grown up dinner with adult conversation (maybe...) and wine, manners, the whole fam damily. It was awesome. From there we ditched our movie plans for some stand up comedy. I've gone to stand up more in the past month than I have ever gone, but what a good time- getting drunk and laughing your ass off! Needless to say the rest of the evening was faaaaantastic and we slept in, and then slept in again, cooked breakfast together and sat in peace and talked. Yeah we did, for real. We were like, single, you know- those couples who have no children? Yes, they are single. That was us this morning. In about 20 minutes however, we will have 2 children again, and go back to the craziness that is the most fantastic and enjoyable times of our life. The real stuff- Saturday dance parties, apples and cheese, ball popper action, and gorgeous little faces who think we are the coooolest people on the planet.
Our time out refreshed us, and we're jumping back into real life. It was nice to pretend, for a day :) We are pretty awesome together.
