Because I have the best in-laws, they have taken ARR for the weekend. (It's been a trying week. There's been the snow, and the let's-do-a-proposal-that-we-usually-would-spend-a-month-and-a-half-on-but-this-time-they-only-gave-us-12-days-including-the-weekend, and another ear infection, and more vomit. Oh, and it turns out ARR is allergic to eggs as well as milk. We're supposed to continue to give him trace amounts, but the kid gets to go to school with an EpiPen now. Six days and counting down to ear surgery.)

Last night, we played video games. And then slept through the whole night. And slept in until 8:30. And then didn't have to immediately jump out of bed. This is huge, guys. I made breakfast without anyone whining at me and then ate breakfast without getting covered in cereal to my elbows. Later, we're going to go out to lunch and then maybe play some more video games and I'm going to write and maybe if I'm feeling really indulgent, I'll take a nap.

Glorious.

(So grateful to my mother-in-law and my mom. MIL stayed overnight on Wednesday and Thursday so we could actually go to work despite daycare being closed and ARR having a fever. My mom's taking a shift this week, since there's probably a pretty good chance one of these two things will happen again. You never appreciate the ability to make it through a full week of work until it's gone...)
