I'm thinking of leaving LO with a friend this evening for a few hours so H and I can have some time together. I've never left her that long before but she starts daycare next week and I feel like I try time away before then. I'm nervous
Definitely go! DH and I have gone on a couple dates, luckily LO goes to bed early (~530) so it wasn't hard since she was already in her crib (she woke up the first time and I am glad we got back at a reasonable time because the sitter had picked her up so she thought it was time to eat - made it very clear the second time that if she woke to just give her the paci but don't pick her up!)
Have you left LO with just DH for a few hours? I've gone to a few ladies' nights/game nights without DH so he stayed with the kids.
Has anyone used simple syrups? I had some basil leftover from the farmers market, and saw a recipe for simple syrup. But I have no idea what to use it in/on. Anyone have a suggestion?

I have only used a simple syrup to make fresh lemonade.

H and I make simple syrup when we want to do Vodka Gimlets. Not sure how a basil simply syrup would work with it
1.5 ounces vodka 1 ounce lime juice 1 ounce simple syrup Shake over ice
I think lime and basil would work really well together! And the basil simple syrup I made turned out freaking delicious!
Soccer is the worst. I don't like outside sports much and soccer has the extra treasure of time added at the end. I get that the clock doesn't stop like in football but it feels like a punishment that they add more time at the end.

Haha! I made basil simple syrup 2 days ago. I was making a gin + juice (orange & pineapple) with basil syrup. My orange juice was too bitter/sour though so it wasn't fantastic. I love simple syrups!

And I'm screwed. Football (soccer for you guys) is like a religion in our house. My SS plays 5 days a week and my DH is an ex semi-pro so talks, watches, coaches blah blah blah football all day long. And now he's encouraging DD to get involved already!!
And on that note, good luck with your week Courtniko ! I told DH he couldn't go away for 4 days for a football (soccer) tournament because I'm not ready to do 2 kids on my own for that long yet. I felt bad but not bad enough to change my mind.

My kids tag teamed me last night meaning between the two of them I was up every hour on the hour.
LO seems to be back to waking every 2 hours after a 4 hour first stretch which is a bit rough after he was doing 6 hours then 3 and 3. Hoping its just part of the 3 month growth spurt. As for DD, don't know what the hell her problem is!!!
I love track and field and the marathon the most, but I also love swimming and gymnastics. Running might be hard to watch this year since I am not in shape and not training for anything.

Actually my friend bailed which sucks but we brought her and still had a good time. I've left her with him on several short occasions and one time for 2 hours with my grandmother. It's gone well so far. Guess we will see how daycare goes next week
Is it bad if I take benedryl in attempt to get some sleep tonight? I've only slept a couple hours of the last 48 and the blisters in my throat and fever are going to keep me up. IDK. I'm just so damn tired I'll try anything at this point.
