Ahhh Adventures...

Well it's been about 2 months since some slight computer problems sidetracked the tales of the Boykos.  I have to say that some interesting events have definitely occurred.  Ashley and I got to experience single life when Nana and Aunt Neen took the girls up 4 days early to New York.  And let me tell you, non-child rearing folk have it so easy.  What did our days and nights consist of?  Well I can tell you what they didn't consist of Spongebob Squarepants, diapers, chocolate milk sippy cups, constant and random chatter, fights over bedtime, fights over the doing of hair and countless other things related to a 3 year old and 21 month old.  One night, Ashley and I got home changed, made a shopping list, went to Walmart and then decided to eat dinner at 8 o'clock at Moes and we got home and we still had 3 hours of lounging around with not a whole lot to do.  This is sharp break from all other nights which seem like a constant hustle to have dinner ready by 5:45 in order to avoid an apocalyptic, food-starved meltdown from the M and M's.  Having experienced the DINK lifestyle, I can honestly say that I wouldn't trade my kids for the world.  No amount of 8 o'clock dinners or spontaneous trips to go see the latest Harry Potter can replace the sippy cups, pacifiers and bath times of my little "angels".
