A monumental occasion occured this last Friday night that we have failed to acknowledge on our blog. Allison and I were able to spend some time with our friends!!! That's it. Now to some of you this may not sound like such an occasion to be considered "monumental", while to those of you who have also recently become parents you surely understand.
A little over three weeks ago Allison and I became "Caleb's parents" and no longer "Allison and Chris". Don't get me wrong, we absolutely love being "Caleb's parents" and are overjoyed with the opportunity to introduce him to everyone. We have enjoyed spending every minute possible with our little man and have honestly found it difficult to make time for anything else.
I know that as much as I enjoyed the time out, this occasion was made especially joyous for Allison who has dealt with pregnancy for many months and now a new mother. I know that she truly appreciated being able to talk about things other than dirty diapers and doctor visits.
So thank you Wesley and Allison for having us over. It was great to be "Allison and Chris"... even if for a few hours. I have mentioned before how proud I am to watch Allison as a mother but it was so nice to see her as just Allison again. We will eagerly look forward to next time.
Our growing boy!

I am so proud of you guys! So many new parents are afraid to go anywhere! Did you take Caleb with you? Good job and you are sweet husband Chris to realize Allison's needs to be a "girl" for a little while! I love those time! Saturday is my day with my girl friends for a big birthday dinner for all of us April Bddays! Woo hoo!
As a side note, we did take Caleb with us for a few hours. Once he got tired I took him over to Allison's mom's house.
