Leaving the Baby Behind

Brendan and I are going to the Crofford's lakehouse tomorrow and not coming back until Sunday afternoon. This will be the longest we have left Wright since he was born. I am assured that Wright will have no idea that we are away and will be just fine, but I would be lying if I said that I was not a little sad to leave him. The main thing I am going to miss is seeing what new things he will do.

Just yesterday, he started squeezing his hands together repeatedly like he was milking a cow. This was something he just taught himself and it means nothing to him (that I know of) or me, but he thinks it is the greatest thing he can do. Every time he does it, he starts smiling and laughing and every time I imitate it, he laughs even harder. It is cute stuff like this that makes it hard to leave him for 2 1/2 days. What if I miss another first while I am gone!?!

That all being said, Brendan and I are very excited to get out of town and have some adult time, and we know we will have a blast.
