Saturday morning we split up - Jon took Nate out while I stayed home with Alex. Alex and I had a blast, making banana bread and hummus and walking to the post office.
This crazy kid with his snow boots and using my reusable bag like a cape to be a super hero.... we needed some time together alone to recharge our relationship. It was a good reminder that we can give up a lot of things to save time but not these dates. We all need them.

Sounds like a great way to spend the morning. Love the boots!
He's so great! I love his personality - it shines through even just in pictures! I bet you have so much fun with him!
We had separate kid dates this weekend, too, and it really was great. I realized that we don't do that nearly enough, and it is something that we should not neglect to schedule.
You know I love me some date night (or morning) action with Ben.
When our afternoon plans got rescheduled yesterday I asked if he would go with me to run errands allowing Bill to work in peace. When he told me that my list of stops were "not fun", I asked where he would go?
"The car wash followed by Dunkin Doughnuts." Hence a quick detour for good behavior on the trips in and out.
Everyone was happy and I now have a clean car.
