Viva Las Vegas
In less than 24 hours, Adam and I are going to Las Vegas for 3 nights and 4 days. This is the longest we have been away from Charlie...ever. I am nervous, as all mom's are, about leaving my precious pumpkin, but I know he is in the best hands possible (Grandma and Papa Sayre). I don't worry about his care, they are excellent grandparents, but I worry about them getting "tired" of him. I realize this is not that long of a time, but I remember seeing my parents and how tiring it was with a little one after a certain amount of time. There is a reason we can't "reproduce" at the age of 60 anymore....energy isn't there like it was at age 30.
I bought Charlie a present (something small) for each day that we are gone. Stuff to keep him "occupied" while we are gone. I am going to try to limit my calling to once or twice a day, max. And I am probably going to have Adam do it so that I don't cry at the sound of his little voice "talking" over the phone.
We definitely need this time as a couple to reconnect, renew, and relax together. But, when life has changed so much, with just the two of us on vacation, it will feel as though someone is missing from our family.
"To-Do" list for Vegas:
-Stay up past midnight (at least one night!)
-Bet more than $5 at the craps table
-Visit with my lovely Aunt on her 85th Birthday
-Have a few margaritas at "Margaritaville" with Bob/Gene, JM/G, and Doug/Sandi.
-Eat at the Grand Lux Cafe (especially for dessert)
-Try "one" food that I have never tried (thanks facebook stupid survey...)
-Walk A LOT and enjoy the beautiful sunny 60 degree weather
-Enjoy lots of laughs with my husband and family!
-Not wear sweat pants for 4 days :)
