No joke! My wife and I took a vacation of just us for the first time when she got her parents to babysit for a weekend during our 2 year wedding anniversary. It was such an amazing (and weird without our son) weekend!

We remembered what it was like without an infant (and missed that life about as much as we missed him)!

In any case, we still had an amazing weekend, and to top it off, when we got back, he was taking steps on his own thanks to grandma's encouragement (at barely 11 months olds)!!

That is awesome! Sound like you were a big winner all around that weekend!
