Leaving LO overnight for the first time :(

We are going to Cedar Point on our annual trip (missed it last year when I was pregnant) and I am leaving DS with my mom for the night. My mom is the only person I trust with him, but OMG! I don't know how I am going to make it through the night. I am going to miss him sooooo much! I cried last night when I packed his bag. I hope I don't cry the whole time we are gone.

Sunday we have a 3 hour drive to visit DH's family for thanksgiving and then a 3 hour drive home the same day. I hope LO sleeps in the car! He has never been in the car for that long. I am thinking we will have to stop a few times to get him out of the carseat. Thank goodness that my family is in town for Monday thanksgiving dinner. Yay for 2 turkey dinners :) But it is going to be a busy weekend!

    I love Cedar Point!!  We didn't go this year or last, but will next year.

    And don't worry, you trust your Mom so just have fun!

    I dread this, but DH will be with them. I have a conference mid-November and will be gone 2 days.

    You made me tear up reading that you cried packing his bag! Can you bring one of LO's items with you? maybe a worn onesie? Have fun!

    Good luck! It will be tough but you can do it. The first time we left Michael overnight with my sister in law who lives 20 minutes from us, I felt like I was physically missing a piece of me. I kept looking over my shoulder in the backseat expecting him to be there. We ended up having a good and much needed time alone together and you will too!

    I've left Silas overnight with my aunt 3 times. I don't like leaving him overnight at all. I miss him way too much.

    I find it was easier if you have the person watching LO text you pictures throughout the night :)

    i feel like a crappy mom. jack spends the night at grandma and grandpas at least 4 times a month. they love having him there and he spends the day there when im at work anyway so he is comfortable there. i miss him like hell when hes gone but i sure love the sleep i get.
