[Bug-n-Bears-Mommy]

Lets see, I have not read a book that actually has chapters and pages that are not hard and chew resistant in over a year. Earrings, I was just thinking about how I can't even remember the last time I wore them. The last movie I saw in the theater was Phantom Menace...Mommies went to the first showing than sat with the babies while Daddies went. (my best friend had her first baby a month after Bug was placed with us) I traded in my car for a mini van, and can almost talk exactly like Elmo when my babies REALLY need a pick me up. The last CD I bought was A child's Gift of Lullabyes, and I don't know if I will ever be able to walk thru my family room again without maneuvering over a million toys!I even asked my DH at one time...I think it was before Christmas..."Do you even remember what our life was like before Bug came?" Try as we might, it was pretty difficult to remember what we USED to do for fun. I mean that in a good way though.

BUT, I know what you mean. There are many times I TOTALLY take advantage of NOT having the boys with me. For example, when I can just run in and out of the grocery store and not have to worry about dragging out the double stroller, or HOPING that they have one of those carts with the little truck in front that holds both of them already sitting in the parking lot! When I think about needing to go get a hair cut...but there is NO way I am dragging them along! I do miss the ease of that.
