Today was my day of our "split" weekend, and yes, it did include some shopping. It also included eating and lots and lots of laughing. I spent my day with one of my oldest friends, who is a first-time mommy to a handsome two month old boy, and her mother, who I adore.
We were so excited to leave the house with our purses instead of diaper bags, to be able to sit through a whole meal, at a restaurant, without a child in a lap or a bottle on the table. To be able to browse through a store without pushing a stroller into a rack of clothes. While all of these things were nice, we spent a lot of the time talking about our babies, calling or texting to check up on our babies and shopping for our babies.
Don't get me wrong, we had a fabulous time spending the day together, but as hard as we may try to get a day "away", our children are never far from our minds. It's part of the job description.
This is who greeted me when I got home
This "day out" ended with a dip in the pool and my family who I am thankful to come home to.
