A couple of weeks ago Mikey and I spent our first night AWAY from the kids. It was actually easier than I expected it to be. Don't get me wrong, I definitely missed them, but I guess they are old enough now that I didn't have any worries or concerns. They stayed with my parents over night, and Mikey's parents came over and helped with them. I was confident they were in the best hands!
We left around 2:00 on a Saturday and went to Atlanta. We drove around, did some shopping, ate dinner, found another place for dessert, walked through a tattoo parlor (ha!), drove from little five points, to buckhead, to downtown to atlantic station...and then it was 7:00. :) We've officially forgotten how to take our time doing these things, as we've had about 9 months of practice rushing through stores, scarfing down food and wasting no time.
Later we checked into the hotel and got to watch some uninterrupted TV and R.E.L.A.X. It was glorious.
My only complaint is that I was WIDE AWAKE at 7:55am (the babies usually eat at 8). I had big plans of sleeping in until 10. Not this time, maybe next time.
We ended up coming home a couple of hours early because I couldn't stand being away from the kiddos much longer, but all-in-all, it was a great experience and so nice to just focus on my amazing husband for almost 24 hours. :)
