Groggy Love

Last night M and I had a date. The first year MBAers hosted a party for the second year students. The minute we found out about the party, I booked our favorite babysitters in order to secure them for the night. :) I left knowing the boys would be in good hands. We've had the twins over since Austin was born so they are very familiar with the routine - no notes needed.

I explained to Z that it would only be Courtney for the night because Chrissy would be with his friend Connor. He seemed to understand, even though they are both known as CourChrissy around here. So Courtney showed up, I chatted and finished getting ready, then left the house - no tears, no drama - so excellent!

I picked M up after his class and we drove to the bar, had a great night out and came home.

This morning around 6 we had a little visitor. I didn't move so M pulled Z into bed with us. He fell back asleep but I happened to be awake when he started stirring. He stretched, blinked a few times and looked over at me. His eyes got wide and then his groggy little voice said, "MAMA! Wasn't that sooo fun?!" I asked, "What was fun?" He said, "Playing with Courtney!"

That kid is in love with those girls! It's not just him though, it's A too. The girls will walk in the door and M and I instantly become chopped liver. I'm really ok with that. If it's been a while since we've seen them, Z will bust out with, "I miss CourChrissy".

What are we going to do when they graduate and go to college?! So glad they have a younger sister - her name is also very well known around here. ;)
