A Date with Griffin

Griffin and I had our own special date yesterday! My dear friend, Angie, had emailed me a couple of weeks ago asking if she could get a "baby fix" and watch Grayson. She suggested she come over and play with Grayson while I did something special with just Griffin. (Did I mention I have incredible friends?) Our original plan was to go to the pool for a couple of hours, but the weather didn't quite cooperate. So, off to the Como Zoo.

Neither one of us had ever been to the Como Zoo, but I am so glad we went. (Thanks Jill!) I had so much fun giving Griffin my undivided attention, and I am sure he was psyched too. He can't stop talking about riding rides and watching the lions fight. (By the way, seeing the male and female lion go at it was kind of cool:) For young children, the zoo is perfect in size, and a must see attraction.

So, thanks to Angie, I had a wonderful date with my first-born son, and we created memories that I will always cherish. I look forward to having individual time with both boys in the future. To all you mothers of multiple children...I definitely recommend scheduling time for each individual child. Yesterday was priceless!
