Bye Bye Mommy and Daddy

Late last year my parents volunteered to babysit 1 weekend night per month until baby #2 arrives. It has been great. We have gone to nice dinners, movies, coffee.....adult dates. Last night was another one. Usually we have just snuck out of the house while my mom has Hunter occupied in the kitchen getting his dinner ready. This way we avoid the waterworks. He usually asks where we went a while after we have left and my mom just says we went to dinner and will be back soon.

Last night as we are quietly walking down the stairs I hear Hunter ask if mommy and daddy will be eating dinner with them. My mom says no, we were going to dinner on our own. Hunter runs to the top of the stairs and yells, "by, by mommy and daddy have a good dinner. See you later." A major step. He was totally fine with us leaving, no tears....yeah!
