. Just curious, how come you haven't been to the ocean ? I feel like a day at the beach is very kid friendly.

I take them all of the time to the bay by myself. I won't go to the ocean without dh. Every time dh gets off during the week we always end up doing something else. This summer I plan to get them to the ocean.

Get 8 hours of uninterupted sleep. DD will wake up from time to time still or have a big 'ol conversation with herself in her sleep and it jolts me awake. (Hear it through the monitor)

Get through at least one day without having to watch Mickey Mouse, Barbie, Strawberry Shortcake, Frozen, etc.

See a movie in the theatre

DS is only 3 months old, but run... I'm not even allowed to run yet post c-section. Mini vaca is being planned for a long weekend next month, my mom, aunt and grandparents were setting up baby-sitting plans the moment they heard we were TTC. We're EXTREMELY lucky to have so much family locally, and family that are willing and able to watch DS. We are going to the Isle's-Sabres game in April and my brother already said he'd watch DS.

Only thing I can think of is I haven't gotten drunk since having DD 11.5 months ago. Not out of lack of chance either but just bc I haven't wanted to.

We go out by ourselves at least once a month, have been to the movies, been away. Pretty much our lives have remained the same except we have a little person with us more often lol.

Re: What haven't you done since having kids?

The first two years, there was a LOT that I stopped doing.

But eventually, I found the time to incorporate just about everything back into my life.

The one thing I haven't really done in the last 3 years is read a book.

I started reading a few years after my DS was born, but since DD, I just don't have the luxury of sitting on the couch and reading. By end of the work day, after dinner, homework, baths and bedtime, I'm wiped out and want to go to sleep. And some nights I even get a solid 7 hours! (But not tonight, because I'm sure I just jinxed myself!)

Sleep in.

Had a real lounge around day. Every now and again DH and I would have a weekend day where he played Xbox and I would read a book cover to cover all day and that's ALL we did. I miss that a little. They were lazy and boring and all our own.

Re: What haven't you done since having kids?

Can I ask why movies has been out for many people? I just ask as we went out to a movie 6 weeks after our first child.
