Recently we've been going out with friends a lot.
"Let's have dinner before you have the baby." Our friends said.
AND not only one set of friends, but so many have said that.
Do they think we're never going to go out again after Critter arrives.
Maybe they think as soon as we come home from the hospital, Critter is going to leap out of the car seat, run to the front door and bolt it shut. It turns around and with an evil grin on its face says:
BWWAAAAAAA! You're trapped now! I will destroy your social life. You ain't never getting out now!
We don't expect you to ever leave the house now.
ReplyDeleteOkay as you know I am a father with a 1 year old son named Jaice and a 6 year old son named Jaiden. And to be honest "Your Party Days are over!" Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! I mean at least for the 1 year of motherhood.
ReplyDeleteI mean I'm a guy I still went out and partied, while Wifey stayed home and took care of the kids. Well of course that all stop when she hit me over the head with a frying pan!
Now I share with parenting duties. But if you pace yourself,you will still be able to have a social life while being a good mother. But everything is planned to the T. Can't be spontaneous no more.
Okay...
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is that your life will cease to exist and it is really going to suck! That being said, your focus will change 100%, and that little person will be the center of your universe. A new chapter and a new experience, and yes like that new car smell the new baby smell does go away after a while; sooner than later actually. In some ways you'd have been better off buying a car, wait until the diaper changes start! Oh great fun!
Don't you know as soon as you have the baby, you cease to exist. You're no longer in control of your schedule. The baby rules you.
