A President's Day Surprise!

Nathan's company never gets holidays off besides the BIG ones. They work with lawyers and apparently lawyers never take vacations, so he doesn't either. He's never had President's Day off in the past, so I didn't even think for a second he'd have it off this year.

Sadie woke up at 9 and I pulled her into bed with me to feed her. Our fridge beeps if it's been open too long, and I suddenly heard it beep. My heart started pounding and my mind raced.
Nathan should have left for work and hour and a half ago. 
He doesn't even eat breakfast anyway.
Someone is in my house!!! 
Why are they in the fridge?
Shouldn't they be stealing our computer?
I haven't even gone grocery shopping in a week.

Then I started to realize that no one breaks into people's houses to eat their food. Sadie had already fallen back asleep on my chest so I didn't want to wake her, and I was still a tiny bit nervous, so I texted Nathan and asked if he was home. He said he was at work. Then I heard the sink turn on and the sound of dishes being washed. So this really nice burglar was eating my food, and doing my dishes. At that point I knew Nathan was home. I put Sadie back to bed and went out to see him doing the dishes, and making breakfast. He had actually gotten the day off and wanted to surprise me! We had breakfast and watched TV, then went shopping and out to lunch. Then we braved the movie theatre with a 4 month old and saw The Mockingjay. Sadie was pretty good! She watched the movie half the time, and slept half the time.

I love my cute husband and that he still surprises me with little things like this. And it was so fun to have him home on a weekday! We really like this guy. Best daddy ever.
