Day 13 - Kinda dreading tomorrow...

Tomorrow night is the big game...well, ok, not really a big game since they're not even in the same conference...but it's the first time the NJ Devils have come to play the Coyotes in a few years. We have sweet seats - 5th row, next to the Devils' bench. I have been Devils' fan since they moved to NJ in '82/'83 and lived 10 minutes from their old arena when I was growing up. My uncle had season tickets so I went to many games up until I moved to AZ when I was 20. For several years after I moved here, AZ didn't even have an NHL team. Occasionally there would be exhibition games and we had non-pro leagues (the Roadrunners), but I missed my Devils :)

So why aren't I more excited? Well, it is our first "night out" without Nico. He will be with my MIL so he'll be fine, but I don't want to leave him. I already have a queasy stomach just thinking about it. I hope I can relax and have fun. We are going with DH's youngest sister and her boyfriend.

Today I tried putting Nico in his crib again for a nap. He did ok for a little while. He enjoyed looking at the mobile his Nana got him.
