What Did We Do Before Kids?


Jared and I had our first "real" date about a month ago to celebrate a belated Valentine's Day. Before that, we made brief appearances at a couple of holiday parties but really it has been four months since we spent any time alone together. It's amazing what it feels like to drive away from the house and have the inside of the car completely silent. As we drove downtown, Jared said to me, "it feels like we're on vacation". It's sad that this is all it takes to show a Slosberg a good time, but I completely agreed.


Thinking back to my single days, I felt like I worked so much and had such little time to do anything fun. Then I had Peanut and thought, this is soooo hard. Now, I have two and realize I had it easy with one. I literally have no free time. Once I get one settled, the other one needs me. Jared and I usually don't get a break until past 9:30 PM when we're both exhausted from a long day.


We've reinstated the standing two date nights a month where we can go out, have a complete conversation, and actually taste our food.
