life without kids

I sometimes wonder where Alex and I's life would be if we didn't have kids. I have some friends who have no kids but are married. I often wonder what they do with there time. Alex and i love every moment we get to ourselves, but what would we do if it was always us? I imagine my house would always be clean. I would have no one sneaking in my bed at 2am. No one yelling at me when they don't get there way. No constant crying over silly things. When i think about that....life might just be boring! My day is filled with being the referee between Ethan and Brooklynn. Kissing little boo boos, reading storys, pretending to be a monster and chasing them around. If i didn't have them, i imagine i would be at work for 8 hours a day and then come home cook dinner or probably eat out a lot. Alex and i would probably stay up way to late watching TV since we didn't have to worry about anyone having a bad dream and waking us. We would probably spend the weekends out shopping spending way to much money. I have no clue what we would talk about, lol. We spend so much time talking about the kids, without them how do you have anything new to discuss. So, while a spotless house seems like a nice thing, i don't know that i would trade it all for a 9-5 job. I think i will keep my whinning, laughing, loud and spoiled kids. Life would really be way to boring without them.

Awwww, this post is so sweet! You posted about what I've been thinking lately.

I wouldn't know how to act if I didn't trip over toys, have dirty diapers to change, and little hands grabbing at me wanting my undivided attention.
