Saturday was my BIRTHDAY! I had a great day. R got up early with Riley who decided 6:30 was a good time to start the day. They made me pancakes for breakfast which is our normal Saturday morning meal but they were extra yummy for some reason. Our plan for the day was lunch with friends, and we had a GREAT time. Shan and Holy brought me my favorite cake, chocolate with raspberry filling, from my favorite bakery which is about an hour away from me, they are great friends. Then we met up with A, S and Griffin as well as Sally and Landon. My mom came to lunch too, she may be my mom but she is also one of my closest friends. It was blistering hot at lunch but we managed to have a good time. Riley melted down and so my mom took him back to my house early. It was so sweet of her because he really needed the nap.
That night we dropped Riley off at Shan's house, while we had dinner and then she kept him overnight! People seem to have strong reactions about me leaving my baby overnight with someone else, they either feel it is too soon or that it is a wonderful thing. My opinion: OMG it was the best gift EVER (other than my son). He did great and so did I. I knew Shan would take the best care of him, he adores her and she loves him too. He took the bottle from her with little issue, and slept very well. I only called once at the beginning of the night and texted her one time too.
Sunday R and I got us and went to get Riley, who lit up as soon as he saw us. I didn't realize how much I missed him till I saw him. We had a yummy breakfast as a family at a place near the city and then headed about 1.5 hours away to R's Aunt's house, where there was a family get together. We had a good time, and everyone loved seeing Riley. He was a very good baby given the heat and that he had never met most the people there. He tolarated being passed around as long as he came back to me or R inbetween.
Overall it was a wonderful weekend. I spent it with those I love most in the world, my friends and family. What more could a girl ask for?

Sounds like a great weekend!! Happy belated birthday!
I'm so glad you had a good weekend. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
And about leaving your son, Why not. If you truly trust the person he's with than you totally deserve a mommy and daddy night. He can enjoy a sleepover night with whatever responsible person you leave him with. :)
It sounds like you had an awesome weekend! Happy Belated Birthday!
I agree that i am one of the few you can always leave Riley with LOL. See you on Friday. XOXO, Shan
What a wonderful weekend!!! Happy birthday, fellow Taurean!
