Anniversary Getaway

Mike and I will be celebrating our 5 year wedding anniversary next month. Craziness! Things really start to move in double time once a child is in the picture. Mike took vacation during our anniversary, so we decided to plan a short getaway. Thanks to an old friend of mine, I found Fort Lewis Lodge. I can't tell you how excited I am...this place looks amazing. It's 3200 acres of mountains, rivers, bike trails AND of course cozy rooms and yummy food. My family owned a bed and breakfast while I was growing up, so I know how special these places can be :)

So back to the short part of our getaway. The longest I have been away from Henry EVER has been 5 hours. I have always been there when he wakes up in the morning (and the middle of the night...every night). I'm having some anxiety as I think about leaving him for 2 nights. I hope I can really enjoy myself with Mike and not be totally distracted with worry. I know he will be fine and I know this is much more a mom issue than a Henry issue. He will also be staying with my sister, which means he might not realize I'm gone...until he wants to nurse :) Henry has been around my sister ALOT lately and has actually started crying for her at times when we are home. Hmm...maybe things will be just fine.
