first time in a long time

Kevin and I went out to dinner by OURSELVES for the first time since Seth was born. We have gone out a couple times in the last year (literally only a couple times in a year), but it was never just the two of us. Tonight it was. It was so fun! And we had great food!

One of the high school girls babysat. Seth is beginning to experience the "separation anxiety" I think. He has had trouble at church and had trouble at our retreat. I hope this stage doesn't last too long. And it's kind of hard to get a babysitter, not because we are lacking good choices but just because everyone wants to babysit him. I don't want to hurt any of the girls' feelings for not choosing them. Leah babysat tonight, and I know we'll have her again!

Oh, fantastic! Sounds like you had a great time. :) Ah, eight years of love.

Wow, you are so laid back. I can't believe you left your kid with a high schooler to babysit, I mean what kind of parents are you?

Just kidding. That's so great to have close, convenient sitters that you trust!

And for anyone who reads this comments, I am very sarcastic!

Zach and I went out kidless last night too, where did you go? Downtown?

Don't worry about hurting the girls feelings, they are resilient! (I am sure I spelled that wrong) Go out and have FUN!

I am glad that you and Kevin were able to go out alone

I'm laughing out loud at Stef's first comment - CLASSIC! :) Glad you guys were able to get out and enjoy some alone time. Give that baby hugs and kisses from us! And I echo all the comments about your new layout - very cute!
