A day that didn't go as planned...

Well today was a day that, well, wasn't exactly as we thought.


We went to church. Got Eli all handsome and I got the guts to take him to the nursery. He gets so bored sitting with us for an hour. So I figured I'd give it a shot and it might help with my separation anxiety. Yes, you heard that right. I am having a hard time letting go. But what first time mama doesn't?! So I took him in and he was so excited he didn't even give me a big kiss. Which kinda broke my heart :(


So as I was sitting next door (literally) I decided to go check in on him. Poor buddy, it broke my heart. He was crying. And I mean crying hard. They have a window you can look in on the babies, but the babies can't see you. So I gave it a lil' while and watched. But Eli just continued to cry. So of course I came in to rescue my poor baby from that evil, evil woman. (as Eli would say if he could.) But she was actually absolutely sweet. She tried so hard to help him out, but all he wanted was to see a familiar face. Eli was the only kid crying the whole time. Ya catch in on that? I stayed the whole time. Eli would NOT let me leave his sight. But I figure it could possibly stir this way. As Eli has only stayed with family. And Gymboree I stay with him. But I think it'll take some time. I know he'll come around. It just hurt to see him cry in fear. It was a different cry. I honestly wanted to just fly through those doors with a cape and rescue my baby from her arms. I was looking in and thinking they weren't holding him right. Or he doesn't like those kind of toys. What can I say, other than I'm totally guilty of spoiling that booger :) So end result, it took a lot out of  Eli and he ended up passed out for three hours.     


So once Eli woke and ate, Me and Moi decided to go shooting. I need to start learning how to shoot a gun cuz it's just something good to know. But the range was an hour and half wait and I had no milk on reserve :), so we went on a lil' date. 


I felt like a teen again. We did a lil' game of lazer tag and then went back to a place that had so many memories. We went mini golfing. I even got some lil' flutters in my tummy, like it was our first date. I can't tell you how much we needed that. And how much I thought I didn't need it. With Moi working a lot I go out a lot with just me and Eli and in my mind I always think, oh I don't need Moi. I'm good by myself. But I didn't realize how much I enjoy Moi being around. I miss him. A lot. And having him around this weekend when we visited the Wild Animal Park, or just going to church I realized I do need Moi more than I think. It's a good reminder. And this weekend couldn't have been better!!!
