Explanation

First of all, thanks for all the comments on my last post. Many of them made me chuckle and it's nice to know that I'm not alone in how I feel!

We had company last weekend (Friday through Tuesday) -- one of C's college buddies was here for the weekend. It had been almost 3 years since they had seen each other so a visit was much needed. Buddy is a great guy and a ton of fun. However, when the two of them get together they tend to feed off of one another and act like pre-pubescent teenage boys. At 30 and 31 years old, this is not something that amuses me.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that the two of the got to spend some time together.
It's just different now that C and I are parents. Usually I'm fairly easy-going and can roll with the punches. Before, if plans changed mid-trip and we ended up heading towards a new destination, no biggie. Before, if it was 9:30 when we finally got around to go grab dinner, no biggie. Now that KT is here though it's impossible to be as flexible.

Suffice it to say that more than once over the course of Buddy's visit both Mandy and KT were extremely cranky.

Well, I'm glad that things are back to somewhat of normalcy there now that "Buddy" (lol) left. As I said before, keep that brother of mine in check! Or his sis will have to come out and smack him up! j/k

Glad to hear they could get together again.

Glad to hear things are going back to normal. Men just don't think like we do when it comes to kids. They think nothing of just picking up & going to do something & leaving us behind to figure out the schedule for when the kids need to be fed, bathed, etc.
