This weekend my bestie (Hanny) and I traveled to Vegas. The much needed girls weekend was planned so we could see the Backstreet Boys residency at Planet Hollywood. In our 15 year friendship we have seen them every time they tour so this was a no-brainer and a great excuse to get away. Before leaving I wrote about my nerves and thought a post-trip interview with Hanny would be fun!
Did you read my letter to you blog post?
Duh! It made me tear up and I’m so happy I’m the first person I went on your trip with after babies.
Were you nervous to travel with me as a mom?
Honestly no. I knew it would be hard for you the first day and then you’d ease into it. But I knew you were really excited and needed the break so it would be great.
How’d I do?
Amazing.
Did I sleep too much or talk about the babies too much?
Definitely didn’t sleep too much I slept more than you (Note from momlando – this is true. I was usually up at least an hour before her which gave me amazing alone time and I even took a bath one morning in our giant tub!) Didn’t talk about the babies too much at all. I welcomed it when you did. I love talking about them with you.
What’s your best memory from the weekend?
So many! The show was amazing. I love seeing the Backstreet Boys with you but this was next level. The after party was great, I loved dancing the night away with you. I’ll never forget sneaking our way into their VIP section to the point where we were sitting on a couch with Nick Carter!
Would you travel with me again? Where should we go next?
Charleston? Anywhere we go is amazing and we have the best time.
What’s changed about our friendship since I had kids?
I don’t see you as much but I don’t think our actual relationship has changed. If anything our friendship is even better now because I love your kids. I get to see you in a different light seeing how they love you. Violet has warmed up to me so much recently. She loves me and that’s an amazing feeling. Last week when you told me she thought she looked like me, even though she’s obviously your clone, it made my whole day!
What do you miss of pre-mommy Dana?
We don’t get to spontaneously do things that often. We have to plan in advance now.
What surprised you most about me as a mom?
This is a hard one. I don’t think anything has really surprised me. I always knew you’d be a really good mom. You were born to be a mom.
How amazing is my bff? We had a great trip and she was a huge support to me the whole weekend. My mind is already buzzing ready to plan our next adventure. Stay tuned for more on our Vegas trip and a wrap-up of all the fun things we did!
