A Weekend with Kiki and Pops

We had another first in our house over Memorial Day weekend… our first night away from Evelyn.  Pat and I went to Cedar Point for 2 days and a night and Evie stayed at home with her Kiki and Pops.   I was pretty nervous about leaving her.  I trust my parents completely, but the thought of being two hours away made me worry the entire week (ok the entire month) leading up to it.  I pre-cut most of her food, I had a medical release for notarized in case of an emergency, I showed my parents where we kept the Tylenol, and I typed out a full page list of instructions.  Luckily my parents know me and were very understanding about my over-protectiveness.  In the end, Evie did great.  According to my mom, she never cried or seemed out of sorts.  She laughed and played and was absolutely spoiled rotten by her grandparents.  They went shopping, to the park, Evie played in her tent with Pops and even went to DQ for some ice cream.  We missed her while we were gone, but it was so nice to get away and have some adult fun.  I know that I’ll always worry about my little girl, but I think my mind will be a little more at ease the next time we go away. 

I love my new sunglasses!
