Vacation.

Me and the hubby are taking to kids to Niagara Falls to some waterpark for 3 days.  I’m excited because I’m getting the HELL out of my cave for 3 days….I won’t have to cook…clean…make the bed or worry about where on earth N has hidden all the little goldfish this time NOT MY COUCH!

Sure D is going to cry as usual (I swear he’s colic or teething) and I’ll spend most of the time watching from the sidelines while N and Daddy play – cause I’m holding the baby BUT OMG IT’S A CHANGE OF LIFE…for just a little but anyway.

Vacations for us will be with the kids for a couple years, I don’t trust anyone enough to leave them somewhere.  (Actually I do but this person lives too far from my house) Plus adding 2 kids to someones family for 1 week is a huge burden if you ask me. I would feel like I owe them the world after that, and that’s a lot of pressure cause I dont’ have the world to give (cheeseball). 

We have a friend that lives in Europe and he wants to meet up in Cuba this winter sans kids because of course he is single and has no little monkies. As much as I’d like to go down south and drink my face off for the first time in 3 years it won’t happen because I’m just not ready to leave the babies.  I don’t think vacationing with a single person (well he has a gf) would be any fun because we don’t have much to talk about other than our kids (well I don’t being the brain-dead house-mom that I am). I’ll save that vacation for when our friends with kids want to go away – that way it’s the same experience, not me being sent to bed with the kids so hubby and single friends can stay down on the beach and get drunk.

And then there’s the whole -bathingsuit- issue.  If you haven’t had a baby or you have but didn’t get any stretch marks…I can’t be friends with you. Is that wrong?
