Happy Birthday from my Husband

Yesterday was my 27th birthday and my husband made it so special for me! We actually got to go out for a very nice dinner, just the two of us which was really great! Thank you Aunt Missy for coming to watch Adi for us! But, this was still a bit rough for me! When we got to about the salads in our meal, I grabbed my phone to text Melissa to see how our little princess was doing, BUT, Nick stopped me and told me/reassured me that Melissa would call if she needed ANYTHING from me! My oh my...to run and errand here and there doesnt bother me, but for some reason for me to go out with my husband bothered me, as if I was leaving her for 3 weeks or something...it was only 3 hours! Not that being with my husband was BAD...that was very nice, but I think just leaving her for us to go have fun without her is what bothers me! Anyway...now I know the feeling I hear from moms all the time about how hard it is to leave your child.

By doing this, going out to dinner that is, raised a big huge flag in my face that I only have 2 more weeks off of work BUT am so so so so thankful that I am able to take Adi to work with me! That is until she is running around taking her clothes off and being sassy at the office! LOL :) Time will tell how well we adjust to this! But, I know so many of my co-workers are looking forward to having her there...that is a GREAT feeling!

I have also realized that I have about 100 nicknames for our child and they are kinda fun so I have to share some of them...

I am a firm believer that you can't spoil a baby under 6 months of age, BUT, you can get them in a routine and unfortunately this "routine" we have at night is beginning to take its toll on Daddy! Little Miss Adi seems to ONLY want to go to sleep for Daddy at night and that is only if he is holding her in the rocking chair SNORING HIS BUTT OFF!!! I am telling you...I have no idea how she sleeps through it, or for that matter, WHY she wants to sleep through it, but it does the trick! It must be that he snores SO loud that the vibrations put her to sleep! Only she knows I guess! But hey, if it works, I'm game! Now Daddy...not so much! :) And, as I type this I wish you all could hear him sawing logs and Miss Adi is sound asleep, mouth WIDE open!!!! :)

On that note...I love my husband and baby girl so much...GOOD NIGHT! :)
