I awoke to realize that Kristy was needing some extra sleep so I jumped at the opportunity to play Mr Mom for awhile. Talk about a renewed respect for what Kristy goes through everyday. Minutes before I was to walk out the door, I had breakfast, my laptop bag, diaper bag, car seat with Savannah and a play mat in hand ready to go to work. “Don’t forget to grab some milk”—I must have said it a 6.5 times.

20 minutes later I pull into the office and the moment I opened the door to pull my little sweet snookums out of the backseat—DANGIT! I forgot the milk!!! What was I to do. Wake Kristy? I can’t just create the stuff on my own. Savannah has to eat in an hour. Thank God Kristy’s parents had a backup supply (you have no idea how many bags we have in the freezer…I’m actually thinking of selling the stuff—JUST KIDDING!). Off Savannah and I went to Keith & Sharry’s to get her mid-morning snack.

10:07am. 7 minutes past Savannah’s scheduled mealtime. I’m rushing up the stairs (with Savannah in tow) to thaw out the milk and feed my girl.

11:15am. Savannah is fed and burped but isn’t at all interested in sleeping. So I place her on the play mat and caught this on my phone…

Her first official laugh (for me anyway)!

11:45ish am. Savannah finally falls asleep…like this

12:15pm. Kristy shows up and we go to lunch.

1:30pm. I finally get to “work”

Oh, and the renewed respect for Kristy? Yeah. So after being at “work” for almost 4 hours, I finally got to “work” 5 hours later. Go figure…but I wouldn’t have traded it for anything. I got QT with my sweet Savannah and I got to hear her first laugh.

That. Is priceless.
