Mama and Papa first date

After almost 5 months of being home with our son we decided to go out and left him with my sister at our house.  We wanted it to be at our house so he has a familiar surrounding, toys, etc.  Fortunately we live near a movie theatre so we walked down to see a movie.  We saw catching fire and it was great.

We left the house telling our son we would be back after.  He understands that word so we use it often.  He said mama and papa as we left, but no tears or panic.  He seemed calm as he knows my sister and has seen many times.  When we came back home he saw us walk to the front stairs through the window and we can hear him saying hi. As soon as walked in he went to mama and was very affectionate giving lots of hugs and kisses.  Papa didn't get much love.

My sister said he was really good.  He played with various toys all over the house and was his usual busy self.  Shortly after arriving home we started the night routine and put him to bed.  We thought he may be up often to make sure we are here, but he didn't.  He slept all night.  Only waking up around 7 to lie down for a bit in the main bed with us which is something he always does.

We were very pleased with how it turned out and feel confident how well he has adapted to life here.  What a great kid I have.
