Lee and I went to some friends' house last week for a barbecue. (Just the fact that we got out with the baby for an evening was a MAJOR success.) There were lots of people, many of whom had children. A sweet girl and I had a conversation about how your twenties are really a difficult decade. There's just so much change. I mean, think about it, you go from college, so carefree and fun, to finding a career, getting married, and having children. It's like going from zero to sixty in ten years, less really.
On the way home, Lee and I talked about what a good time we had, and we laughed about how life is just so different than it was even a few months ago. Conversations at get-togethers are now full of things like breastfeeding, pumping, poop, height and weight percentiles. It's just so funny what we consider a good time now.
It's also pretty amazing, and I wouldn't want it any other way. I'd much rather discuss my breast milk supply than who I think is the cutest boy in my statistics class. :)

Ha! This is so true, glad you guys got out and had a good time!
I was at a party this weekend with lots of kids there, and the moms and the moms to be were all discussing baby stuff. A lot does happen in the 20's!
I know exactly what you mean! Glad you had a fun weekend!
I can SO relate to you! It's amazing isn't it? Saw you on Taylor's blog and had to say hi. Cute blog :)
I agree about things changing... we put together a PUZZLE on girls weekend for crying out loud...and it was actually HILARIOUSLY FUN! I love it, too, though. A lot. :)
Things do change, but in such a good way! It's fun to sit back and think about how things used to be sometimes, not that you would change anything of course, but looking back is always fun! Cute blog and I love your doggie! Reminds me of my Yorki I used to have! oh and I love that grey rug!! Is that from Pottery Barn? Think I've seen one in yellow like that before
The 20s are definitely a whirlwind - but fantastic, and seem to be going by very quickly! But there is nothing better than being happy at exactly the place you are in your life, you sound like a lucky gal :)
