A Night Out

For the last 3.5 months my wife and I have been on baby duty 24/7. Since the boys were born, one of us has been with them pretty much at all times. If we go anywhere, its to a medical appointment or a quick trip to run errands. Either we both go, babies in tow, or one of us goes while the other stays with the boys.

Today we are going to the No.Doubt concert just her and I. My mom and mother-in-law are going to come over and watch the boys.

As expected, I am very apprehensive about leaving them. I bought the tickets before the boys were born (as a bday gift to my wife) thinking it wouldn't be an issue to have my mom watch them. I never thought I'd be so attached that I wouldn't want to leave them! Of course I trust them both, my mom has been over almost everyday and can do everything for them, but I still worry. I worry they will cry and be fussy, that they will miss us, but mostly that I will miss them.

I am hoping I can convince myself to get in the car and try and enjoy the concert and our time alone.

Its so amazing that we've spent years together, just us, and now after only 3 months as a foursome, I already forgot how to be a twosome again.
