I totally get what you’re saying. I think some people without kids (okay, almost all of them) have no idea what the nitty-gritty of parenting is really like. How could they? I’m sure 10,000 years ago before I had kids, I was the same way.

That said, I hope you two can eke out whatever grown-up time you can. And I know all too well the special hell that is taking a toddler and a preschooler out to dinner…at least my two! Have a fantastic time!!!

Oh my god! I’m envious. I have to literally force myself to avoid the Apple store and the campus bookstore, because I get carried away with the iPad fondling. Aren’t they gorgeous? My brother-in-law works for Apple and brought his with him while visiting last month…which definitely did not help.

But! I’m holding out for v2. I’m hoping there will be more RAM. Let’s see if I have the willpower.

I totally understand & I would totally take advantage of having adult only dinner time on the cruise! The kids will be having fun w/you all day at port like you say…taking those dinner “breaks” will rejuvenate you for the next day at port. If one of the other adults wants to have dinner w/the kids tell them to go sit at the kid table in camp, lol! Can’t wait to see Zoe’s hair too!

Emily,
I as confident as I can be that he is getting great care at the sitters. His younger sister goes full-time there and Noah just goes on school breaks. I am trying to get to the heart of the matter as best as I can, but he’s four and while a smart 4, I don’t think he quite has the presence to articulate what he is feeling. I am slowly getting to it and I think part of it is that the sitter’s son–who is 7 now isn’t as interested in playing with Noah (whose only 4) and that bums him out a bit as he is the oldest kid. I also think another part of it is that the new school year is starting and he is getting nervous/anxious about it. I just have to weather this and hope it’s just a phase as he has been really clingy to me at bedtime too. His dad and I usually alternate nights, but Noah has cried for me every night that I haven’t taken him up.

How positive are you that he’s getting the best care while he’s at the sitters? As a child I had some very neglectful sitters (every one of them, and I had SEVERAL) but never knew how to tell my mom. And, quite frankly, I usually forgot to mention it because I was 5 and my short term memory was pretty close to that of a goldfish. Maybe if you ask him about why he gets so upset lately, he will just tell you.

That looks absolutely amazing!! I’ve just turned on to quinoa and love it. One question. Did you cook it in broth or water? Think I’m going to start making up a huge batch of it on the weekends and then using it in place of pasta, rice, and bread all week.
