I think this past weekend was just what we needed. DH, DS and I were able to get out of town for a little "vacation" to NM. Granted, it was because FIL was having surgery but luckily the surgery ended up only being a day surgery proceedure. He had his ankle pinned a while back and one of the pins broke last winter. The surgery on Monday was to take the broken pin out. OK, so it only took them a year to admit it needed to come out.
DH was able to reconnect with some of his buddies from NM and I think that did him a world of good.
It was also great for DS to be able to spend time with Grandpa J and Grandma J, as well as me and DH. We did all the fun things we could find to do, including the Balloon Fiesta in Albuquerque. Absolutely beautiful. I highly recommend it if you are looking for something to do next fall.
Best of all, we were able to spend most of the weekend not thinking about last week. Until the very end of the visit with the IL when my FIL commented that he would like another grandchild. He doesn't know about the baby. We chose not to tell anyone beyond my sister and the sister DH is closest to. All I could do was smile and say "I know." And at that moment reality came crashing back in on me. Just for a moment or two. I don't know if DH heard the comment. If he did he didn't say anything to me about it.
