So, we've made it past the birthday rush consisting of Richie's thirty-fifth and Maddy's first. Richie's, as always, was low key. Dinner and dessert. UM brought over cheesecake and we all over indulged for a week. Maddy's party was immense to us because we're not used being around so many people. It was friends and family totaling close to forty people and we felt like neglectful hosts because of the large number and the multitude of duties we had to do. Richie and I both got all dear-in-the-headlights because we were so overwhelmed. It wasn't even a huge party-no pinatas or pinning things onto other things. It was just a glorified barbecue in the name of our daughter's birth. But that's how we like it. The simpler the better. I'm not looking forward to when she wants to invite half the class list from her school and we have to do the stop and chat. We're not those kinds of people.
Aside from that, we've been looking at houses. Tonight, we're looking at three, maybe four and three out of four have pools. One thing we haven't considered thoroughly is the upkeep (is that two words?)of a pool. It's seriously exciting and scary because it's an investment. What we choose now will affect our lives later. That's a lot to take in.
I have to go, but I just wanted to keep this semi-up-to-date. It's hard since Maddy's teething and hasn't been enjoying her naps like she used to. I love her nonetheless. As well as Sasa and Daddy.
