Four more days. I only have to survive four more days at work and I get NINE WHOLE DAYS with my son. We're leaving for our annual trip to San Diego next Tuesday but starting Friday night I get to be a full time Mama for a while. I am SO EXCITED!
Some things I'm looking forward to:
- We discovered last weekend that Alex will actually let us sleep in until 8am. I am very much looking forward to 9 days of sleeping in.
- A big giant hot dog at Petco Park. They have the best hot dogs at any baseball stadium I've ever been to.
- Showing Alex off to my family. Everyone here only talks about how much he looks like John, but I suspect, with my family, people will talk about how he looks like I did when I was his age.
- The beach. I am a total beach bum. Like Superman can recharge his batteries with the sun, I recharge my soul with the smells and sounds of the ocean. I am so excited to show Alex my favorite place in the world. The Pacific.
- Alex gets to see his cousins Vincent and Raquel again. He hasn't seen them since Thanksgiving and since Raquel is his age, I'm hoping they'll get a chance to play a bit. Alex doesn't get to play with kids his age often.
- Going to my grandma's house feels like going home. It's strange because she's only lived there the last 10 years or so, but it feels so comfortable and familiar to me.
- As always I'm secretly hoping we never come back. We'll accidentally miss our flight home and have no choice but to live in San Diego forever. I know this won't happen, but a girl can dream can't she?
