the mama's night out

I don't mean to complain, but I have been alone a total of twice in three years, the last time being a hospital stay during my induction with Hayden. So for my 36th (YIKES) birthday, which is tomorrow, I decided to treat myself to a hotel stay. Alone.

 A big cozy bed. All to myself.

A fatty, mcfat roomservice meal of Steak Frittes and Chardonnay (Do you love my Gussy Sews diaper/wipe wristlet? No diapers tonight!)

Desert, a magazine to leisurely read and sole control of the remote control.

It's 7 p.m. now and I totally intend on sleeping really soon. REALLY soon!

My mother was super sweet and sent me a gift certificate to a fab B&B, but they didn't have a room for me tonight. So I am going to save that for my fourth night out alone, which I hope will be in the Fall.

What would you do if you had a night away from your kids?
