Ok. So we survived the beach trip… and managed to enjoy ourselves (which included something fantastic called Rita’s frozen custard) while we were at it. Despite the lack of sleep, which I’m not even going to discuss. Because it was not pretty. But we E did manage to talk Jack into taking a three hour nap (I’m not exaggerating the “talking him into it part,” this kid is easily brainwashed by his father) on Saturday, so that I could spend some time alone at the beach, reading and sunning the parts of my body that didn’t get covered by my new continuous spray spf lotion, no rub! no mess! Yeah, I love it. But I recommend rubbing, no matter what they say. Anyway, it was absolutely luxurious to be alone, reading, on a beach, by myself, on a beach, reading, all alone by myself. Luxurious. Honestly, I’m thinking of taking a trip, for my birthday, by myself. Sure I love and miss my husband and never get to see him and I love my kid and totally dig spending time with him, but we are rapidly approaching a time when I am not sure I will ever pee alone again. Let alone read. Or eat. And it’s funny, because I hate being lonely. I just really like my “ME” time. Call me selfish. Don’t care. It makes me sane and gives me some peace. Anyway, so enough about that. Here are a few pictures. Hope all of you mothers out there had a great day. Jack got me some chocolate, belly lotion, and a pedicure. Just what I needed.
I’m glad you got some serious YOU time! We all (especially us busy moms) really need that sometimes. That’s actually a very major part of why I love to scrapbook (don’t tell your brother)! Because I get time for me and my girls… Maybe someday I can convince you to come too! And by the way, no you will never, ever pee or take a shower alone again…. at least not for several years.
Cute pictures, we miss you guys. I hope you had a wonderful mother’s day!
Great pictures. That first one you can tell Jack’s smiling even though you can’t see his face! And I LOVE the flip flops. Can’t believe he keeps them on his tiny feet. He’s a hoot!
Seriously considering traveling east just for some frozen custard. You are no longer allowed to write about food unless I can access it here on the west coast!
Glad you got the R&R you needed. Thinking a few days at the beach would do us all a little good. Thankfully we are looking at some summer weather coming our way this weekend, so I might just make a beach in the backyard.
sounds heavenly….you deserve it.
love the bathing suit btw- funny looks like the one I have and I’m not even pregnant ;
It looks like a ton of fun! Maybe we can go tomorrow to the beach or go shopping!
Real nice…glad it was so luxurious. :)
