Well, my camera broke...

so I don't have any pictures from this weekend. And of course, yesterday it just magically starts working again. GRRR! Nice timing. Anyway, we had a great day w/David, Danielle and Chloe. She is so much bigger, and I swear she looks like a different baby. She SMILES now, which just makes me fall in love with her even more (didn't know that was possible!).
I always kind of thought that kids were not for me. You know...you go out to eat and there's a screaming kid at the table next to you. Or, you're on a plane stuck next to the baby that won't stop crying for 4 hours. Or, my personal favorite, the kid in the grocery store that has a complete meltdown because they can't get what they want. I never ever thought I would have the patience to deal with that. And in my opinion, that's the easy stuff! What in the world would I do with a some sassy rebellious teenager? I mean, there should be a guide or a manual or something for raising kids. And this is all assuming the BEST. The worst case scenarios are just terrifing.
Anyway, my point was going to be that it kind of changes when your brothers/sisters start having kids. At least it has for me. It's different when you love them so much that you'd do anything for them. Chloe's not even my kid, and I can't think of anything I wouldn't do for her. So I guess I get it. Maybe people aren't "stuck" with kids.
Maybe I could have one.
When I'm 50 or something.
