Saturday night fun!

Its amazing to see how much a twenty-somethings Saturday nights change after having a baby. Our best friends had a baby a month after we had Cameron. We spent most of our weekend nights with them, and although we weren't all heavy partiers before the babies, we did have fun! We could make last minute plans and go out to dinner. We could go into the city to have drinks and stay out late. If we were bored, we still had the freedom to say, "lets have pizza on the beach" and be out the door 2 minutes later.

It doesn't happen that way anymore! Now we have to plan things and pack things and prepare. For the most part we stay put, either at our house or at their house. Our Saturday "nights" usually start around 5 and end around 8:30, just in time for the babies to go to bed. Tonight wasn't much different. We went to Steph and Justin's house where they made us dinner and then we spent the rest of the night letting Cameron and Ashlyn play together. Cameron even got to spend some alone time with his "Auntie" after Ashlyn went to bed.

Now I will be the first to admit that our Saturday nights aren't the same kind of fun that they used to be. They are a whole different fun, a better fun. We talk more, we play more and we laugh more. Nothing can compare to the fun that we are having now. The babies have changed our Saturday nights for sure, but I wouldn't take the old ones back for anything. Sleeping in Sunday mornings? Now, I wouldn't mind taking that back! :)
