vacation anxiety

As our planned vacation fast approaches the excitement is building, but so is the anxiety. This will be the first time we leave Z-Dub in someone else's care as we jet off to enjoy some grown-up fun. I completely trust the family members we're leaving him with and I'm confident that everything will go well, but something deep inside makes me uneasy about it. I don't know specifically what it is though. Perhaps the thought of him missing us or vice versa, or if something were to happen. Or perhaps it's a little of everything. It's hard to pinpoint.

Part of me wants Z-Dub to come with us so he can add another destination to his list of places visited during childhood. But HotMomma and I both agree that he won't remember the trip anyways, so there's no point in subjecting him to a long flight. Also, we really, really need some "romantical" time to ourselves. This vacation will probably be our final opportunity to take a "parents" vacation for quite some time as The Fetus will will be arriving before we know it. I still can't believe that next week HotMomma will be 20 weeks pregnant. Time sure flies.

At least during our trip my Blackberry will keep us connected to Z-Dub. That provides me some peace of mind.

I also want to thank Gail at Squared Off for my award. I will be bestowing the award upon others, as is customary, but at another time. I have a lot of work to accomplish before leaving on our trip. Thanks again.
