Daddy Daughter Double Date

The usual Sunday routine is: church, home for lunch and nap and hanging out, small group, then home for dinner and bed.  It's a little tough on me because church usually interferes with my morning nap and then small group interferes with my evening cat nap.  Plus, it's hard for me to go the full two hours of small group without interrupting mama.  So, we decided as a family to change it up a bit.  Every other week either mommy or daddy will go to small group and the other will stay home with me.  On the weeks that daddy goes to small group it's not really different than any other evening: mama and me hanging out, fixing dinner, waiting for daddy.  On the weeks where mama goes though... it's so fun and so special!  I get daddy/daughter date night and mama comes home looking SO refreshed after a couple of hours of adult conversation without the entertainment... fine, distraction of me.

Two Sundays ago daddy and I went to Lowes together and that was definitely fun... being daddy's little partner.  This Sunday though, daddy and I met up with Haven and her daddy for a daddy daughter double date!  

This arrangement is probably temporary and driven by my current needs as a somewhat attached 8-month old, but I'm going to appreciate it while it lasts.
