Going Out

We are still trying to figure out how we maintain going out and "partying" with our friends. We are just tired enough that staying up past 11 pm is really quite difficult. Last night we went over to celebrate the "cheese" graduating from college. Skyler is such a champ. He was quite drowsy on the way over, stayed up a little bit longer and hung out with some people, then John put him down in his car seat in the cheeses room. I stayed until about 11 pm, then I was just too pooped to have a conversation. Ah well. I feel like at least we are getting out a little bit. And thinking about it, there is a point in the not-too-distant future when I am no longer breastfeeding, that we can go out late and have some fun. I guess I should just appreciate these moments and try not to get anxious. It's sill to think that you don't have to change your lifestyle when you have a baby, when you have the sort of lifestyle that we did. When most parties don't even start until 11:00 pm, you simply can't force your baby to be on super late-night sleep cycle. They have their own cycle and it is probably in your best interest to adhere to it.
