Ha, ha, now I’m quadrilingual. (Is that even a wor
d? Actually it is, I totally googled it.
:))
We had a good night…a night out with (sort of) no baby.
A couple weeks ago we decided to go
to a fundraiser at our church
that benefits their school. A five course Italian dinner, entertainment, and FREE babysitting.
Really, what’s not to love
?
And then last night I looked at the time the event was scheduled to begin.
7:30 p.m.
Really?
I. almost. cried.
Instead, I called a friend for some help.
(You can tell I’m still new at this mommy thing.)
How on earth were we going to leave Maelie in the nursery for a few hours that lat
e? Um, no. We know our daughter…this could not even possibly end well. She just doesn’t do evenings…and is almost always in bed by 8:15.
Thankfully we came up with a plan that actually worked.
I love it when that happens.
So Maelie got to hang out in the nursery long enough to play a little and have a bottle, and then she went to sleep in our friend’s office at church. It took her awhile to fall asleep, but once she was out, she was out.
😀 And we got to have a date. 😀 Complete with Mel singing cheesy love songs to Tobin.
So, five courses and way too much Diet Pepsi and decaf coffee later, we are home.
And happy. (And really, really full, but that’s a given. ;))
Every couple needs a night out without kids once in awhile.
Bella Notte…and Good Night.
