I'm in Port St. Lucie, near Stuart and Fort Pierce. Leaving Tuesday to go back to the frozen north. I may just down and entire bottle of hot sauce when I get there.
My aunt and uncle live there. My parents are there for the month. Jealous their missing the snow
Ok. I need help being convinced this is ok. My sister wants to take DS to their home so he can spend more time with his cousins and stay overnight. We'd go pick him up tomorrow (they live ~90 min away). We've never let him go anywhere without us. We've spent weekends away from him but ILs watch him at our house. He's 1 mo shy of 5yo. I'm ridiculous for being nervous about this, yes? He'll be fine. I'll be fine. Yes?
MIL took the older kids for the day so I took advantage this morning and did a toy purge. I was thinking I'd have some down time this afternoon but the baby napped for a half hour and is now basically laughing in my face.
It's gorgeous out. DS is running around the backyard with a sword while DD naps. We're going to run some errands after she wakes up, including going to the fancy butcher shop for something to grill later.
My kid is so dirty because all the toys that have been in the yard/on the porch are so dirty. I wasn't anticipating this weather so I didn't hose everything off. Oh well.

I wouldn't say ridiculous because my kid is 5 and the only reason I'm hesitant for a sleep over is I don't want to have to go get her in the middle of the night. And we'd only be driving 25 mins.

Do you have any specific concerns? How does he feel about it?
He said he wants to go. I'm mostly worried that he will burn himself out. He's so excited when he's with them he forgets to tell us when he's hungry, thirsty, has to potty, etc. All of which I can ask my sister to look out for. Then there's just the irrational anxiety about my baby being away from me.
