Saturday was the day that i was supposed to go to the MU game with scott, ryan, and uncle matt. After work 12 hour shifts on thursday and friday, all i wanted to do was run some errands and just be at home. Friday night, i broke the news to scott. yep, once upon a time, when we did not have kids, i would have jumped at the chance to go. But saturday was not my day to go. Grandma cathy was in town and i saw what oppourtunity i had! i send the boys on to columbia and have grandma cathy watch owen while i ran errands all by myself. It felt so good driving out to legends with only me in the car! No kids in the back, no strollers to take out of the car, and i could spend more than 5 minutes in a store. Yes, sad thing is that i did not do any shopping for myself, it was all for ryan and owen. After legends, i made it to kohl's, oak park mall (so i could return a shirt for me), then on to michael's to look for frames so we can hang owen's 1 year pictures. gosh, i got so much stuff done.
After lunch, grandma cathy left and it was naptime. OH MY GOSH! Forgot what it was like when only one child is at home....and they take naps! I had 2 1/2 hours all to myself. cleaned the floors, did 2 loads of laundry, surfed the web, took a nap, and finally showered. it was amazing!!!! when Owen woke up, we played for a little while then met up with the boys at Macaroni Grill. It was a great day! And Owen and i had some good one on one time. Scott said ryan enjoyed the mu game just as much. I guess i should enjoy the afternoons with my boys b/c before long, both boys will be jumping in the car with daddy to go to columbia for a game and i will be left at home all alone. i haven't decided if that is a good or bad thing!
