Musical Babysitters

Gigi was so kind to have stayed until today to watch Paxton so that Susanne could get on the road to NC for her youngest sister's bachelorette party weekend. Gigi was going to get on the road herself once Moppy was able to relieve her after she got off of work.

Moppy would be having a slumber party with Paxton because Scott wasn't able to come home until tomorrow due to previous plans he had made a long time ago. Moppy, of course, did not mind one bit that she had to stay overnight with the baby. The more time she could have with her grandson the better. She had actually missed seeing him so much since her duties had been relieved over this last week.

This evening, Scott had an end of the year party for his internship that he didn't want to miss out on. It would be the perfect way to end a wonderful experience and give him the opportunity to say a proper goodbye to all. There was a fun evening planned for everyone that was full of food, drinks, and...kickball. May the best man win.

Scott was hoping to get a good night's sleep so that he would be well rested for the drive home in the morning. He needed to be able to put his game face on to take over the bug's care. He knew from his talks with Susanne that once he does Paxton's schedule for more than 24 hours by himself, the exhaustion kicks in.

Susanne was able to leave for Asheville at a decent hour. She was excited to see everybody and eager to help celebrate this wonderful occasion. She was a little anxious to leave Paxton for the entire weekend, but she knew he was in good hands. Despite knowing that, it was still difficult to let go because she had been with him everyday of his life thus far. When she thought through it a little more, she realized that it truly would only be one full day without seeing him since she kissed him goodbye this morning and would return on Sunday night. She would still need to muster up the strength to push through, but she knew that her sisters would do a great job of keeping her mind busy with other things.
