The taxes are done and even though we owe waaay more than we’ve ever owed anybody in our lives, we can finally relax. Hubby and I haven’t done anything fun together for awhile, unless you count hanging out at the hospital the night I had my c-section. The pain meds made me pretty loopy and he got a real kick out of some of the stuff I was saying. I don’t really remember it though, so it doesn’t count.
So, since the older kids were doing overnight youth activities we took the babies and checked into a local hotel. It was inexpensive, they had a 24 hour pool that was VERY warm, and a hot breakfast was included.
Phoebe totally enjoyed the pool and then slept like a champ until she fell out of bed around 5:00. This woke up baby Hudson who had been sleeping better than he’s ever slept. But they both went back to sleep pretty quickly and we didn’t get up until 9:00. It was great! And it was a change of pace. And it was a fun thing to remember while hubby is in Belize this week. He leaves at 4:30 in the morning. I hate it when he leaves, but once he’s gone I’m okay. It’s just the leaving part that stinks.
So, we’ve got a long week ahead of us, and once again I’m hoping to get some extra things done around here. I don’t know why when hubby is out of town I think I’m going to magically accomplish more than I do when he’s here to help with the babies. I guess I’m just one of those people whose dreams can’t be squashed no matter how unrealistic.
Here a couple of pictures I took of my sweet babies last night.

Oh man! Look at that baby boy!!!! Those beautiful eyes and those luscious jowls! WOW!
