Speechless...ok, so totally cracking up

Because we are INCREDIBLY lucky to have the greatest babysitter, Tina, Brian and I went away for 22 hours and it was wonderful. Where did we go? 10 minutes from our house to the Davenport Hotel. Our wonderful friends, the Prizemans, had given us a gift card to the hotel over a year ago, so we finally were able to take advantage of it. We then scheduled couples massage, never done it before, dinner at Nikos (yummy) and then back to the hotel for the night. We woke up at whatever time we wanted, which of course was still before 6am, because our bodies are used to getting up early, then to the Davenport brunch buffet (yummy again), off to the mall for a few kid items, and then back home. It was wonderful and Brian and I realized we really do still like each other and we enjoyed feeling like we were back to our prekid days, staying in hotels and eating out (we traveled A LOT before kids and enjoyed it). As for the massages, sorry but they sucked. Not to give bad press to Spa Paradiso, but our massages were not great. Brian and I were very disappointed, especially for the price. However, we both agreed that it was better than fighting with our kids to eat dinner.

As for why I titled this post Speechless, here ya go...When I called to check in with Tina she said I have to tell you what Shane said, oh brother. She said Shane was asking why mommy and daddy were going to be gone all night. Tina explained that sometimes mommies and daddies needed to get away and spend time alone. Shane's response, "Are they going to make another baby?" Tina said she had to turn away because she was laughing so hard. She said she told Shane no, not this time anyway. Shane then told Tina that God decided if the baby was a boy or girl. Tina agreed and the conversation was over. Now, I must tell you, not long ago, as described in a previous post, Shane told Brian that mommy made him all alone and daddy didn't do anything. Where did Shane get his new insight? We have no idea, and I don't think I have even used the term "make a baby". So Brian and I are very afraid that Shane is a little too wise on the world at this young age. That said, there will not be a baby anytime soon. We are still debating whether there will be a 4th and it won't be within 15 months.

Myann's cuteness in regards to our leaving...Brian was telling Myann that we were leaving. Myann said she didn't want us to leave and wanted to go with us. Brian said no she had to stay home so she said, "Then I need Tina." Brian reassured her that Tina was on the way.
