first post-baby date

Troy and I went on our first post-baby date last night, while his mom and step-dad (Ewan's Nanas and Papa Rog) babysat. We decided to go see the Santa Cruz Derby Girls because I thought it was about the only thing that could sufficiently distract me from the fact that I was away from my baby. It turned out it worked. We had a blast, and while Ewan was always somewhere in the back of my mind, I found I was able to completely focus on the game. (It helped to have wonderful, loving grandparents as babysitters.) The SCDG Boardwalk Bombshells lost, but barely. It was a really close, really exciting bout, and we had front row seats!

Turns out Ewan did just fine without us, too. He cheered on the Girls from home:Here he is imitating the tough face of his favorite Derby Girl, Brawley Parton:
Do you think he got enough love and attention from his grandparents?

Thanks Marsha and Roger! When can we get out to the movies? (Guaranteed response from Marsha, Ewan's doting Nanas: How's tomorrow?) Aren't we lucky?!
