Leaving on a jet plane

People seriously think I am out of my mind for letting my baby go visit Mimi & Papa in Nebraska for a week. So, for all of you who think I'm crazy, here's my side... And in case you wondered, I'm OK with you thinking I'm out of my mind :)

Before there was Chloe Jane, it was just me and this handsome dude.

Met June 2006

Married July 2007

Bought our house May 2009

And had all sorts of fun in between.....

But in January 2013, the best thing happened. We welcomed our little girl home.
Neither of us would trade that for the world. With that being said, a baby in the house makes time together a little more tricky. Soooooo, while our baby girl is gone for the week, we are planning to make the best of the time together. Baseball game, sushi, Iron Man 3, Texas Roadhouse and whatever else we decide to add. We are going to miss her to death but I texted our week's motto to Luke:
"CARPE DIEM" 

In other news, Chloe hit a few of her milestones this week!!

Rolled allllll the way over - May 25

First tooth popped through - May 29

First sleepover (that happens to be a week long!) - May 30

 
 
 I'm guessing I will cry a few times. I will probably ask to Skype every other day but I'm excited that everything worked out so last minute (oh, did I mention this plan came together in less than 24 hours?!). I'll ask for lots of updates and pictures. But, before we had her, we had each other and this week, we are celebrating that!

  1. Way to go Crystal. Not letting people's gasps and comments make you feel guity. You are the best mama for Chloe and you are putting your marriage first and being selfless in letting your daughter share in her Mimi and Papa's life.
    You are an amazing person and there is no doubt you love your daughter. Certain her Mimi and Papa will smother her with love and possibly even spoil her a bit.
