He's leavin' on a jet plane!!!

The time has come!! Never thought it would.....but it has arrived! My hubby is leaving first thing in the morning for his first business trip.....ever! I don't know whether to be happy, excited, sad, scared or what? I think I am just more nervous of the fact of him flying. He's never flown on a commercial plane and he has definitely never been that far away from me in our 9 years together. I know it will be fun for him but maybe a little nerve wracking as well. He may not show that he is nervous but I think deep inside he must be a little. I am just glad that Logan is no younger than he is. I would hate to be alone at home with a 3 month old baby. I went to Mississippi in March without him....but with my parents and family was there.

Logan is at that age where he is into and all about everything. He is quickly becoming a very big handful and you cannot take your eyes off him for a second. He is fast as lightning. It's fun to watch but scary at the same time. I just have to let go and let him grow up and learn. He will get plenty of bumps and bruises along the way. I know I have to suck it up. He's a boy and that is what boys do.

So, Logey and I are hanging out for the next 3 days. I know I will probably spend most of the evenings at my parents house or maybe even at the in-laws. Who knows but I just don't think I want to sit at home for 3 days. I need people to keep my company and it is always nice to have help. Now, I am not saying that I am an incompetent mother who cannot take care of her child on her own. That is not the case at all. I am just used to having an extra hand and it is very nice at times. I know plenty of mother's do it all by themselves and are awesome, more power to them. I just need a break and look forward to Justin coming home in the evenings so we can tag team a little. He is great at keeping him occupied and out from under my feet while I am barefoot, but not pregnant, in the kitchen. It's quicker and easier for me to get things done in the kitchen when I don't have a 9 month old baby crawling up my legs at all times usually whaling his lungs out b/c I won't pick him up. As you know, I adore my son. But sometimes, you just gotta have some alone time!!! :)

Keep the J man in your thoughts and prayers as he embarks on this new and exciting journey of the business travel world! He is not completely alone which I must say is a big plus. He won't have to worry so much about things because his boss is an avid traveller who knows the ropes when it comes to Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson Airport. He is coming back September 11th which is also very scary but quite possibly the safest day to travel these days. They certainly do beef up security on that day so maybe I can rest more soundly knowing that. He will return Thursday night and will be welcome with an open heart and open arms. We love you, daddy!
