During the sleep depravation time in our lives (the first three months with our little one) Ale and I planned our entire week around what we called “nap dates.” We would drop off the baby at one of our parent’s house and instead of going on our usual fancy shmancy date, we would stay in, crank the AC, pull out the down comforter and sleep! Four hours of uninterrupted sleep! It was better than sitting at any restaurant (I mean who needs food when you can’t keep your eyes open… right??)
A couple of weeks ago this florida family headed over to the west side and drove till we hit the water for an extended “nap date.” My oh my was it refreshing!!! It was the perfect mini-vacation. Far enough to feel like we were on a real vacation but close enough to run home incase of an emergency.
Here’s a little clip of our extended nap date…
That is great that you are taking out some time for yourselves…so important to help you both keep connected to each other. Thank you again for sharing your experiences xo
Love it, glad you both get time off like that. Seems so refreshing and peaceful! =) love you sharing little moments like that!
