A Change in Plans

(I really need a scanner...this is a bad picture of a picture).

As some of you know, Mondo and I "celebrated" our 7 year wedding anniversary yesterday (the 23rd). Both kids and I are sick so things didn't go quite as planned. Here's the rundown.


Anniversary plans before kids:

-get a manicure and pedicure from a day spa

-have a nice juicy steak for dinner and talk for hours

-stay overnight in a nice hotel complete with a room service order of cheesecake and coffee

-sleep in then have brunch

-spend the rest of the day shopping and going to a movie


Actual Anniversary with kids:

-got flowers and donuts (not a bad start)

-Ethan and I had fever and sinus issues

-had McDonald's for lunch (Ethan's request)

-had Taco Bueno for dinner (Mondo's request)

-spent the whole day at home with sick, whiney kids

-Ethan fell asleep at 7:15p

-we attempted to watch a movie

-Ethan woke up at 9:30p with 101.7 and needed meds; wanted Daddy to sleep with him

-finally finished our movie around 11p

-we were up and down with both kids all night


Do I wish I could've gone back to the old days? Not on your life.


Happy Anniversary Mondie! Here's to 7 more years!....and hopefully Caleb will be sleeping through the night by then!! :-)

Happy Anniversary!! Maybe you could reschedule the original anniversary plans after everyone is well. Sounds nice and relaxing :)
