Well we all made a huge step as a family Sunday night... Steven Kaeden and I let Kailer go stay the night with Grandpa Olivas and his girlfriend Lupe. MAN was that tough~!! I didn't want him to go... Kaeden was bawling and just freaking out in general about please dont' let him leave us... I'm glad that Kaeden was freaking out so much because it helped me and forced me to be the "strong" one.... Or I would have been a basket case LOL
It all started when they were getting ready to go home after bbq'ing at our house and Lupe asked Kai if he wanted to go with them. She said she'd get him ice cream and popcorn and they had toys etc. I was thinking NO NO NO but didn't say anything. Kailer decided that YES he wanted to go! I figured Daddy would say no and if he didn't then I would... but next thing I know Daddy is packing pj's for Kai and he's super excited. I told Steven I didn't like this one bit and he told me to step up and say something. So I took Kai aside while Kaeden and him were in my room and he asked if we were going bye bye with him. I explained that no Mommy, Daddy, Kaeden, Tatum and Triniti were all going to stay here at our house, and if he went it would be him going all by himself, none of us were going. He looks at me and says "I KNOW, I'm going bye bye though".... How do you inform your excited 3yr old that he can't go cause you're overprotective and don't wanna give him up? lol I had to let him go at this point. Daddy went and installed the carseat in the car and then asked me to help finish it up and check it. While checking it Kai just sat there so ready to go. I buckled him in and then he gave Daddy a kiss and hug and then gave Mommy a kiss and hug. I went in for a 2nd kiss and he tells me "Mommy I already kissed you".... ARGH Where did my baby go????
After they left Kaeden and I snuggled on the couch for an hour or so and I couldn't help but tear up and cry a bit. Kaeden was sniffling himself.
About 4-5 hours after he was gone we all adjusted and were doing much better LOL He of course was doing great and having a blast at Grandpa's as they had called to check in. Steven and I decided to watch our last movie in the quiet and silence and then off to bed we went.. Steven fell asleep with Kaeden and I dozed on the couch until I was totally uncomfortable and had to go into bed alone..... I LOVE being in bed alone when everyone is home, but it was a tad empty knowing Kai wasn't in the house at all.
I must admit it was nice getting ready for work kid free Monday morning... Grandpa and Lupe brought Kai back around 2:30 after I got off work and he was happy to be home. He was grumpy cause he was tired and just snuggled me a bit. That was nice. I did find out that Sunday night at bedtime he at least asked "Where is my Mommy?" Of course once they told him I was at home and he was staying there he was perfectly content and fell asleep on Grandpa's shoulder, but it was nice to know that I was not completely forgotten that evening ;) lol
