10 days

I SURVIVED!

Nick went to beautiful Queenstown, New Zealand for 10 days, when I stayed home 30 weeks pregnant to hold down the fort with our almost 2 year old! 

The whole week leading up to the big trip, I was terrified to do this single parenting, but I do have to say, I made it! 

Allie I filled the days with going to the park SEVERAL times, going to her 1st friend's dance birthday party, visiting Will Metzen in Minneapolis, KS, and having a visit from Grandma Davison for a few nights.


With Nick being gone, it made myself be more up on my toes, so I got up earlier made sure I had all my ducks in a line, Allie/I made a good little team.  But one thing I know, by day 10 we both missed Nick a TON!  Allie was the cutest I have seen her when Nick walked up the jet way and saw her buddy, Dad.  I was in tears, of course.  She was beaming and "talking" up a storm with him trying to fill him in on all that he missed.  This little girl of ours is turning into quite the Daddy's girl.

One thing I know...next time Nick has one of these 10 day trips, we are going to make sure I am not pregnant and it becomes a family trip!

The countdown on the arrival of #2 is becoming closer and closer.  Can't believe in 2 months, we will be a family of four!
