One-On-One Time

I worked from home yesterday because of a grumbly in my tumbly and hubs came home around noon because he didn't have any lessons. The little man was at preschool and we were both sitting downstairs watching TV and the house seemed so quiet.

Hubs gets up at 5:30 every morning and basically goes to bed when the little guy does, so we don't get a lot of one-on-one time. We have to plan dates and focus on spending quality time together - and sometimes it will be months before we get away together for a couple of hours. I always look forward to our dates and we have a great time, but we still rush back home and through the door to see our little man.

Today, he said, "It seems so weird being in the house and him not being here, you know?"

I said, "Yep, but at the same time, it's nice to have some us time, you know?"

Then I crawled into his lap and we snuggled and watched Law and Order together. It was good one-on-one time, you know?

  1. our son is just 8 months
    old and we aren't ready
    to have alone time yet :)

    he has been sleeping in
    his own bed in his room
    since he was 8 weeks so
    our love life isn't suffering.

    haha we miss him when he
    sleeps and the rest of that
    cliche, cheesy stuff.

  2. cute picture. and though I can't relate because hubby and I have no kids yet. I can completely understand how it would be hard to get away but still feel weird without baby boy there.

  3. I love having special unexpected one-on-one time with my hubs, too. One time Macy went on vacation with my parents for a whole weekend and we were beside ourselves cause we had no idea what to do! LOL. Hope your having a great day! = )

Star Wars Gift Bag Tags

Two years ago, for Walker's Star Wars birthday, I created Yoda tags to attach to the gift bags for the party. Little did I know these bag tags would become so popular on Pinterest! To date, these tags have been repinned almost 500 times!!! So I thought since there's so much interest, I'd add them to my Etsy shop . So now, for just $8.00 - you can receive the file electronically and print them for yourself! I jazzed them up a bit with some sliver glitter puff paint on the light saber and some silver ribbon to attach to the dollar store bags. Print as many or as few as you want! So, if you are planning a Star Wars party, check them out ! And may the force be with you!

Baby Shower Inspiration Boards

I got all excited about the baby shower inspiration board contest over at Sippycups Are for Chardonnay , but only ended up submitting this first one on time. I managed to pull the second together this weekend just for kicks and loved the colors, so thought I'd share here. The first board is call "Nesting Instincts" and the second is "Over the Rainbow". I think I could get addicted to creating these things.
