Time Together

Daniel had this Saturday off. It's extremely rare that we get a day off together. Daniel usually works Saturday and Sunday and I work Monday through Friday. It's really hard to find time to do stuff together because one of us is either rushing off to work or exhausted after a full days work. We're both okay with this situation for now because it means Morgan is only in daycare at most 2 and half days a week.

Surprisingly, Daniel got this Saturday off without asking. At first I thought we should make the most of that time by visiting the zoo or doing something we normally don't have the time to do but then we realized that it would be nice to have the whole day to relax together without having strict time lines to adhere to.

We were able to wake up slowly, have breakfast around 10 am, lounge around the house until about 4 pm when we finally made it out of the house. Our first stop was to this really nice area in Fresno that has a play area, restaurants, movies, shopping, etc. We only let Morgan play for a while before heading to dinner.

We didn't stay too long because it was really hot and Morgan has extremely fair skin!

Daniel and I shower Morgan with attention and often times we'll even find ourselves staring at her during meals, etc. I enjoyed the fact that during our dinner out I actually kept forgetting Morgan was there because Daniel and I were so engrossed in good conversation and good food. I know it's good that Morgan isn't always the center of attention and she's able to witness her mom and dad enjoying each other's company.

Sunday, Daniel didn't go to work until 4 pm so we made the best of that time too with more fun in the sun. We're getting good use out of our $5 pool.
