A new baby in the family
One of our nieces had a baby right before Christmas. A beautiful, healthy baby girl. It’s hard to realize that she’s two months old already! Before you know it we are going to have to worry about baby proofing our house for the many visits we will be getting from them. It just seems like a few days ago that we put away our old baby gates! Funny how life sneaks up on you that way. All of our kids are grown up now, and some are having kids of their own. I’m not sure I’m ready for a newest generation! I don’t feel old enough to be worrying about the newest child safety tips - I was just starting to get used to (and enjoying) knowing that the kids were past that point in life!
Ahh… the circle of life. I think maybe we should just suggest that we go visit them at their house instead, so we don’t have to go all nuts and fortify our house with all the newest safety equipment! Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see them, but if we go to them, then they are the ones who have to make sure the baby is safe. And, we can decide when the visit is over and leave to come home when the baby is cranky! I think I’ll suggest that to my wife!
