So, last night...for the first time since Finn was born, we did something. Now, don't get me wrong. We have gone out since Finn has been here, we went to lunch once, dinner once (both with our respective families), people have been over here, we've been over to their houses...but this was the first time that people came over and we were really social. Bett & Mike came over and we talked, ordered dinner and talked some more.
Sure, we played with Finn (of course), and we gushed over him (who wouldn't?) but we really talked, and we even played Wii. It was really fun.
It made me have visions or our kids playing in their rooms, coming out for snacks, and us drinking, talking, laughing and having fun...both with and without our kids at the same time.
It was nice :)
It proved that we can have kids, and have fun, and have fun with our kids. It's nice to not have to leave him with someone else in order to "go out" and have fun.
I'm so glad you guys had a good time too! We had a blast and I had similar thoughts about what the future holds for us. I told Mike it's so good to know that one day we'll have kids running around playing while we're being adults. It also put my mind at ease about having kids. I've been freaking about losing the ability to do stuff, but it seems like that will only have to last a few months. We love you guys!
