So I did the most un-mommy thing today (in my opinion). I went to a movie with Jess with out Jr, with out Trace & Colten and with out any spouses. Jess & I went to see The Women . The movie was hilariously funny and kept the entire audiance laughing and my mind off of feeling incredibly guilty about leaving my son home with 2 men who were out numbered 3 to 2 and only a couple bottles of pumped breast milk.
For the record the guilt only lasted till we got in the movie and it started and from the end of it till we walked in Jess' door and my son was still alive! While I realize that the guilty feeling is normal, and the more often that I leave him with someone I trust (that number is few) that feeling will go away. And for my sanity I do need the time away. I realize all of this I do. Tomorrow I have a physical therapy appointment for my back (yeah those pesky "it's all pregnancy related" issues are still here and I'm not pregant anymore!!) so Jr will be hanging out with Jess while I'm there. So two days in a row.. I'll be leaving my son - albiet with someone I trust. Either way... I'm figuring out this whole Mommy Time thing
