Julian and I went to Breckenridge, CO for a triathlon reunion over Memorial Day weekend. The whole family was supposed to go but when we got tired just thinking about the flight, car ride and other details of going with the whole family we decided Jeff and Leana would stay home for some quality father-daughter bonding time. This was a great choice in the end, because for the first time I got to focus 100% on Juju for 3 full days, and I also get a break from our exhaustive 2.75 year old.
Not that traveling with a 7.5 month old is not exhausting too. But in a different way. I was able to hold normal conversatiions with people without being interrupted, there was no whining, no battles over bedtime, no "mama, mama, mama....". Of course by the end of the 3 day weekend I couldn't wait to hear Leana say "mama" again and overall it was a great weekend. I saw lots of old friends, ran, hiked and hot tubbed. Juju got his first tooth* while we were there and that combined with the 9000+ feet of elevation and late nights all made me even more sleep deprived than usual! All well worth it, of course.
