This week was a big one in our house. Wait for it.....Lance and I went on TWO dates this week. This may not seem like a big deal to most of the world. But ask any adoptive mama who has spent the past 4 months in the throws of doing everything humanly possible to win the heart of a little human who is now your precious child, but until recently didn't know it. Yeah, that's a full time, 24/7 job. And one that just doesn't allow for much "me time". But lately when we put Sena down for bed she stays asleep all night. Which is a far cry from the waking up every hour all night that she was doing. So, we decided to have my sister come over after her bedtime this week and we snuck out for a solo dinner. It was heaven on earth. Then we got really crazy and went to a Christmas party last night and left all three girls with my parents. Sena did wonderfully. It doesn't hurt that she adores my mom! So not a big surprise there.
So, not that I'll be leaving her all the time or anything, but now knowing we will all survive a little separation is a pretty good feeling!
Date 1: Mexican food, margaritas, ice cream, no high chair, no epi pen, no diapers. Yes please!!
Date 2: A fancy ALL adult party! So fun! Maybe a tiny bit too much fun for this early to rise mama! 🍾🌲❤️
