How nice was it to have an extra-long weekend. That buffer day was amazing. I wish three-day weekends were a regular occurrence.
Ken and I spent ours driving up to Boston to see our new nephew, Logan Jacob Milton Kelepouris, who was born Friday May 27, 2011 at 10:25 PM. He’s an armful weighing almost 9 Pounds – and is incredibly cute.
He’s baby No. 3 for my sister-in-law and best friend since 7th grade – Katie.
Just thinking of having three little kiddos 5 and under makes my head hurt. Seriously, God bless her.
I think I could handle two – tops.
On the other hand, I am really looking forward to the chaos of having kids. Maybe not the temper tantrums at the grocery store (where everyone is staring at you to get your kid under control), or the never-ending ‘I don’t want to go to sleep’ – when all you want to do is take a hot bath, read a book and have a glass of wine... And all they want to do is watch Dora.
But all the sweet, little things in between (and I only know this from watching my two nieces Sammy and Lexi) like the pitter patter of little feet running around the house, the giggling, how they fall asleep to the rhythm of their mom or dad's heart, and their funny one-liners… especially when they repeat some swear word you said… that wasn’t meant for their ears.
I’m looking forward to it all – the good, the bad and the ugly. I just hope it happens sooner rather than later.
I love this post -- so touching and sweet. Don't worry -- someday soon you won't even remember life without a little one. It will be like he or she was there all along!
