We Went To The Store

Last Friday, Effie (my sister, Julie) stayed over and helped me out while Bubby went back to work for the first time since Squid was born. She spent the night on Thursday so that she'd be here when Bub left at 6:30 a.m., and since I hadn't been out of the house in four days and was getting a bit stir crazy, we had her babysit that night while we ran out to Whole Foods.

It was THE first babysitting adventure. I was a nervous wreck and had a tiny meltdown in the car when it really hit me that Roman wasn't near by. I knew that his auntie loved him dearly though and wouldn't let anything happen to him.


As Bubby and I were strolling past the dairy case, I suddenly had the urge to text her and make sure things were okay.

 

She had the same idea at the same exact time.
That's sisters for ya!

When we got home (I had to get a piece of chocolate cake from the bakery department to calm myself down), we found the two of them like this:

 

She loves him so much.

Aww! How wonderful for Roman to have so many people who love him!
My friend had a baby boy at the weekend and I met him yesterday. I held him and he slept in my arms. I fell in love!

Ohh what a sweet picture of Roman and his Aunty. I remember leaving my chickie with a babysitter for the first time, and it was unnerving and also a relief. I had been in the house for a week, and having a baby as your only company can drive a person a little crazy :)
