What a great (3 day) weekend!

Saturday we planned to take Savannah back to Cape beach with the Rice's.  We got an early start so it never got too hot.  Savannah had a lot of fun eating the sand,  at this age it's so hard to keep things out of her mouth, she'll eat anything!

I had to work Sunday but we already planned on having Tony's cousin come over to watch Savannah for a couple of hours so we could have dinner. We have finally decided that it's time for us to have some time for just each other.  Since we are on opposite schedules right now, it's been so difficult to squeeze in any alone time plus the fact that we don't really have a designated "babysitter" doesn't really help either.  So we asked Sabrina if she would like to.. and she was more than willing.  It worked out perfect! We had a great time just going out for dinner together.  We have put all of our time and focus into Savannah for her 1st year, which is exactly what we wanted to do but now I feel it's also important for us to have "our" time.  Where we can break away from baby talk and dirty diapers and just have fun.  Like we used to.  

yep, thats the real us

out to dinner

It's all a juggling and balancing act, really.  Trying to be the best and most involved parents that we can be, both having to work and also putting enough time and focus into keeping a healthy marriage. 

Who would have thought that being an adult would be this much work!!??

Thennnnn....

To my surprise, my wonderful hubby took Monday off! Just so we could spend the day together, and that's exactly what we did.  We went back to the Cape beach, this time to the pool.  Which by the way was way too warm! It was like bath water, so not refreshing at all! So we went over to the beach and hung out in the much cooler water.  After that we went to an Italian Deli and Market where we got steaks for dinner.  What a good day!

I decided not to worry about taking pictures throughout the day so I left the camera at home!
