What I've Come to Realize

Grammie and Poppa graciously offered to take Presley off our hands for a night. Brandon and I didn't have any special plans, just went about our normal Saturday. That's when I realized:

Walks aren't the same without a stroller


Our house is way to quite


Getting to sit down isn't all it's cracked up to be


Only having to put myself to bed isn't near as sweet


Requesting a table for 2 just doesn't seem right


Dinner conversation will never be the same

While Brandon and I will always cherish our time as a couple, we have been forever changed. Things just aren't the same without our sweet baby girl around.

(sleeping in felt pretty darn good though)

    I am your newest follower from the Sunday blog hop. I know the feeling when just a few of our kids are missing, it is eerily quiet. I hope you can follow back at http://mylifeadventurebyme.blogspot.com/
    God Bless,

    So true! Not that we've ever had a babysitter (unfortunately!), but still, I can relate even when I'm just away from A for a few hours!

    I totally agree with you on this one!!! We went to the State Fair on Sunday and should have spent hours more there... but we missed B and had to get home to see him. My parents were surprised to see us back so soon!!! Babies change everything..but man, aren't they worth it?? :)
