Reality check...


Last weekend we took the little one to visit Uncle Ricky, Autie M, and the boyz. This was Kenna's first outing to the cousin's house and we all had a great time!

Enz & I were just talking about how things have changed over the years. The both of us used to go over to Rick & Merr's house to hang out, and we would have a few drinks, play some games, or listen to music until the wee hours of the morning. Once they started having kids, that all changed, for obvious reasons! Then on our end, it turned into, "let's go to Rick & Merr's & play with the kids." That was fun too, just that there were probably fewer drinks, less games, the music was a little quieter, and we wouldn't hang out until really late. And just after this weekend, we realized that our little visits have evolved into the next phase! Now both families have kids, and it was fun just passing them around and sharing the attention with each and every one of them!!

I guess the biggest reality check for me was when the girls were in the room with Elliott, getting him ready for bed. Rick was playing with Wesley, and I had Makenna. Sure, we had the tv on, and we were chatting it up on whatever we talk about. The only difference was that we had kids in our laps. What a trip! Made me feel like such an adult! Hahaha...
