leavin...on a jet plane...

Don't know when I'll be back again. Oh wait, yes I do :)

I'm going to Stockholm, Sweden!!! What what! I'm so excited and also completely hormonal and sad to leave my baby (ok, almost 2 yr old). I know I have said before that I love morning snuggles with Zach. We have this whole morning routine that goes like this: go in Zach's room when I hear him banging on his door, he says baba first thing, I change his diaper while I promise a bottle (don't worry folks, I call sippy cups bottles if they have milk in them), we go downstairs and I make his bottle and my coffee, then we get snuggled up on the couch and wake up a bit.



Here's where I get crazy - David got Zach up this morning and made his bottle and then I cried because his bottle was almost finished and I wasn't there for our morning routine. Ha! I'm crazy. Poor David. But I am leaving the country! There's a crazy time difference of 7 hours (I think). And my cell phone won't be working for constant pic updates of my boy. What. Will. I. Do. Well, I think MF and I are sharing a room. Therefore, I will force him to snuggle with me and love on him to fill the void :) hopefully he obliges because 3 year olds aren't that into being snuggled and babied. At least not this one. He has things to do.



Anyway, I'm leaving for 8 days and know nothing about Stockholm. Anyone know any fun facts or things I must do/see there? I really should do some research but there's no time. I've been busily working on Zach's birthday invitations that I realized must be mailed out before I leave town. Ahhh! And I've been working a lot this week and in really really sick with a cold or something. If you know me, you probably know that a stuffy nose is the worst for me. I'd rather be throwing up that have a stuffy nose. Boo hoo. Poor me. Ya ya l know. Oh, and I haven't even thought about packing. It's low 60's in Stockholm which could be freezing or warm. Hard to say until I get there. First priority is invitations, second priority is spending every waking second with Zach, last priority is packing. Oh gosh. Wish me luck.

Here's a little sneak peek into Zach's birthday photo shoot by my friend, Kaleigh! (post about her and the rest of his pictures will be up closer to his big day!)

  2. Have fun Liz!!! At least you know Zach is in good hands with David! And if you just don't trust him, like I've said a million times, just send him to me! :-)
