Hi, it's Sam. I'm not available right now because Steve won't stop groping me. So, leave me a message after the beep.

I wouldn't want to disappoint them and have them just give up. That wouldn't be good for any of us. We'll be at your parents' house all next week and we'll be there at Christmas and New Year's, too. What if you take time in January and we'll go somewhere warm? Oh, how about we take off the day or two after Christmas and go somewhere tropical just for a few days if your parents wanna keep Noah?

[he smiles into the phone and nods his head even though he knows she cant see it] I think that would be a great idea and PLEASE ... my parents NOT wanting to keep their grandson? Have you not met them? [he laughed] Ill look online at some little getaways, maybe a little cruise or somethin', they have couples cruises that are just two or four day ones just out to somewhere like Baja and Ensenada.

[She had a big smile on her face too that he couldn't see when he liked her idea.] You really wanna do that? I know your parents will want to keep him but I just don't wanna start assuming without asking, you know? I don't care where we go as long as it's warm and it's just the two of us.

Hell yeah I really wanna do that, and my parents will INSIST on takin' 'im, hell I can just see 'em tryin' to make us stay away longer [he chuckled] Ill look and see what I can find sweetheart, itll be warm and just the two of us.

Let's toy with them and tell them he's going with us or something. [She giggled.] That's probably just mean but I can just hear your mom tell us how that's no place for a baby and how we need time alone. I can see them trying to talk us into staying away until after the first. I'm still trying to get used to staying away from him two or three days at a time. The idea of us being alone just sounds too good.

They MIGHT kill us if we play like that [he laughed] Time alone just seems so foreign, I have a hard time leavin' 'im but I honestly dont know what id do if we didnt have 'im for more than four days, I mean ... I know what we'd do but you know what I mean/

Just put Noah between us and them and we should be safe. [She laughed] Yes, I know what you mean. I'm with him ALL the time. At first, two days was hard but he's happy with them and you've been gone so much, you owe me. Now that he's pulling himself up and crawling, they can have more fun with him.

[He chuckled and knew she was right] With him between us ... we're good to go. I know, I know baby, Im so ready to be home, hold you and kiss you and just ... make up for all this damn time we lost. I cant wait to see 'im standin' and playin' and just ... growin' I feel like Ive missed so much. [He sighed]

First I was gone the last two weeks helping out mama and at least we have Thanksgiving coming up. I'm not looking forward to the next week when you go for two weeks training. They better not send you to training again this spring. I can't wait for Christmas at your parents' place after all of that and a vacation in January? He is growing like crazy and I don't think you've missed as much as you think. We were gone two weeks and then home two weeks and you'll be gone two weeks. This sucks.
