Morning Out

After the wonderful morning I have had I would be remiss to not blog about it... My kind and generous friend, Corinne, babysat Benjamin AND Nina this morning for me to get a little time to myself. Ahhh, it was wonderful. Thanks Corinne!!! :) This would be the first time that I have left Nina awake with anyone (well except Adrian of course, but he doesn't count :)). Last time she had a babysitter she was asleep for the night, but sadly woke up and screamed until we got home hours later. BUT today was not that bad at all. Corinne said she was sad for a little while, but she calmed down and even crawled around and played with toys! Yay!! I am so excited that maybe she will start being a little less clingy. I can hope. I haven't even said where I went. I went to a local French bakery and had their petite dejeuner which was an assortment of little pastries (I had mini croissants) with butter, jam, and orange juice. I sat in a comfy chair, ate my croissants, sipped my oj, read my book, and loved every minute of it. A litte break does a mommy good. My shirt and hair actually still smell like the bakery - a nice reminder of my morning out. After I had my breakfast I strolled through a crafty shop near by with papers and stamping stuff and bought a couple of sheets of neat paper with vintage cookbooks and postcards on the them. I think I'm going to use them on a giant journal page about my morning. In fact, I think I'll go work on it now. :)
