Nina & Noah

Nina (Quinn's Sister) and her son Noah (our nephew!) came to visit us the day after Thanksgiving for the weekend. Can I just say we are not ready for kids yet!

Here is a small list why:

1. Obviously #1 is the fact we've only been married for a year.
2. I'm terrified of pregnancy/delivering. Yes, I'm serious. Does that make me a terrible woman?
   
3. We enjoy sleeping through the night... aka: not getting woken up at 12am, 3am, and 5:30am.
4. When you need to use the bathroom/shower there isn't banging and screaming coming from the other side of the door.
5. All of your breakable items (ie: candles, glass decorations, vases) don't have to take up all of the counter space in your tiny kitchen to avoid being broken.
6. We've never had to clean our nice TV- until we got sticky hand prints on it...
7. Weights are for working out, not dropping off the first stair onto the tile floor.
8. Guinea pigs nibble on fingers that smell/taste like food- which ensures screaming & crying.
9. We can actually find the remote control and it isn't covered in spit...
10. We can go where we want, when we want, stay as long as we like. Yeah it sounds selfish.

Now this is not to say that the weekend wasn't fun, it completely was! When Noah took a nap, we took a nap... making up for the lost sleep at night. We took him to see Santa at Bass Pro, and then we attended a holiday market and the tree lighting show at the National Harbor. We also had a "mini-Christmas" for them, we bought Noah a Little People Nativity Set- it's SO cool, and a tonka fire station. Nina got some much needed mom-pampering items... aromatherapy candle, wise words for busy women book, and a gift card to bath & body.
