first time out


Last night we went out to dinner with Michael's godparents. Without Michael. It was really a fun time; we had such a good laugh! But, the poor babysitter who kept Michael didn't have as much fun. My friend Kim's daughter Sebrina (along with Emily and the girls) listened to Michael scream for the better part of 2 hours. I'm sure they were miserable. The poor girls, and poor Michael! I hate those first few times you have a sitter for your baby. Both mom and baby are miserable (even though mommy is laughing on the outside...inside she knows what's going on at home!) But he finally wore himself out and passed out. Whew! Today we're hanging out at home rearranging stuff and catching up on laundry. Gramp is doing better the last 2 days, not sleeping quite as much, and more interested in his developing room as I try and re-create his old apt. He really loves Michael and even reached out not only to grab his chub hand today, but to actually hold him. Cool!

Sebrina said it was totally worth every minute of it! She will be happy to do it again! And this time she will keep all the phones in eyesight so no one will call you unless there is a real emergency!
