I think about how much I have changed through the years and the things that use to seem so important just aren't anymore. Dave and I were laughing last night as we were headed home from having dinner at a friend's house and was just completely looking forward to going home and watching a movie(and it was 8pm). Four years ago we would have just been getting our night started! Weekends that were spent hanging out at the river all day and going to the bars at night are now spent hanging out with friends depending on everyone's child nap/sleep schedule. I wouldn't change it for the world. I can honestly say I have never been happier in my life. It just amazes me however how fast life changes. I was looking at old pictures and I just had that "Wow" moment where I realized what seemed like yesterday was so long ago. I reflected over how I have changed as a person and thought about where I have been, where I am now and where I want to go. I looked to see if I am on the path I want to be on rather than just the path life has led me to.
Visiting friends in the hospital as they had their babies was such a surreal experience this past couple of weeks. It felt like yesterday that Dave and I was there with Anna and now she is 9 months old. It is amazing to me how much she alone has changed in these 9 months. She went from a cranky, screaming, never sleeping baby with all this dark black hair to a happy, always smiling, sleeping through the night blonde haired child! It is going to be so much fun watching Anna and all her new friends grow up together. Hopefully Anna won't be too bad of an influence! :)
