1. My little boys are seriously super effing cute. Like, super cute. Gray is just so smart already. He's stringing two to three words together. It's so crazy to realize that he knows words that I didn't think we taught him. When he calls my mom "Grandma" it's basically the cutest word I've ever heard anyone say. They are such sponges at this age.
Carter got to go to a movie with my parents this afternoon. What a lucky little boy to get his own afternoon date with his Mother (what he calls my mom) and NanaPe (what he calls my dad). I kept picturing them sitting there, Carter in the middle, snacking on their popcorn, sneaking peeks at their grandson to see how much he was enjoying the movie. He loved it, by the way.
2. Jeff and I had a day date. He dropped the kids off at my parents' at 11:00 and we had a double date with friends. We did one of those escape rooms (SO fun) (we didn't win, but we were really close) and then went out for lunch and a coffee. Then Jeff and I got groceries, ran some errands, tidied up the house, and went back to pick up the munchkins.
It was really nice to have some time to ourselves. It has been a while. Like... a long while. And it's pretty great to have a conversation without being interrupted a hundred times.
3. After we got the kids to bed, we started watching the new Ghostbusters, which I liked and Jeff hated (add this to the long list of things that Jeff dislikes). I gave him permission to bow out and go do something he actually enjoys, which he did, so it was just me. It was nice to sit together and watch a movie for a bit, and then it was nice to hang out with my own kick-ass self and watch a movie for a bit.
You'd think laughing alone would be sad; turns out, not so much.
