The boys are back in town
Last night was Girls' Night Out - which automatically means that it was Guys' Night Watching TV. Jessica went out for the first time since Hannes was born, and she somehow talked herself into leaving Hannes for more than two hours. I think the record stood at two hours and 12 minutes. That was the longest Jessica had been away from Hannes. But, as all records, that one was meant to be broken.
So, Jessica left at 7.30. Hannes fell asleep at 8.20. At 8.35, I lifted Hannes into his trolley and we walked down to the restaurant Jessica was at. Basically, if Mom is eating out, so is Hannes. I waited by the Trivial Pursuit machine (entered the top 10 at #7). It was the girls' night out, after all.
Then Hannes and I walked home (you know what I mean) and watched Superman II for a while. Hannes got bored pretty soon (the opening flashback IS way too long) so I got to do my Elvis impersonation again. Opened with a medley: Don't Be Cruel - Heartbreak Hotel - Teddy Bear - All Shook Up. Closed with a medley: Don't Be Cruel - Heartbreak Hotel - Teddy Bear - All Shook Up. Encore: Finnish folk song.
Gently laid Hannes in his bed.
Watched Superman II some more.
Woke up and went to bed all male bonded for the night. Woke up to Jessica coming home, setting the new record at 4 hours.
