Scott was out of town for almost a whole work week at the beginning of November. He had initially planned to be gone Monday-Friday, but ended up coming home Thursday night, which was great! I think the hardest part when Scott is gone is the evenings...Laurel is a night owl (like her parents!), and even when I get her ready and sit her down with me at 8 or 8:30pm, she rarely falls asleep before 9:30 or 10pm. Don't ask what happens when I just stick her in her bed--hours of crying throughout the night just isn't worth it! So when Scott is gone, I am home alone with Laurel all day, and then all evening as well...when I don't get any alone time, it is hard to feel refreshed! And since I usually fall asleep earlier while pregnant, that was the whole day! I did get a little break on Tuesday when I spent the afternoon in Pella at my parent's house.
On Friday my friend Sara and her son Eli came over for lunch and some play time. Sara and I were roommates before each getting married, and she is a great friend! Eli is a little shy, but Laurel did her best to make sure he always had a toy in his hand!
