Playdates, swimdates and drinking dates

This is exactly what our summer has consisted of. Playdates/swimdates for the kiddos and drinking dates with our friends.
I feel like every weekend and some weekdays we have gotten together with one or more friends that have kids and either gone swimming or done some other form of a playdate. Don't get me wrong, I love it. I love having my kids socialize with other kids while I talk to my friends. Really it is a win win situation. The kids run around and have fun, not to mention get worn out, and I get to have some adult conversation. Of course that conversation usually consists of talking about kids and husbands but it is still good.
I just feel like every weekend we are on the move from this place to that place meeting people and running errands and trying not to go insane or forget a kid somewhere. ( that only happened once, and my dad was at the house when Rob forgot Addie. Luckily Alex reminded us about her before we drove off to far)
And I do look forward to our drinking dates. I love having friends over or going out on a Saturday night and having a drink or 2 or 10 :) and unwinding. I love that Sarah has Elle and her and Zach are only 19 days apart so they play so well together. It makes everything so easy because her and Aaron can just come over on a Saturday night, kids can play than pass out and we can hang out. I love that my friends have kids around the same age as mine and hopefully the will be able to grow up together. Its so nice when all wives/girlfriends, husbands/boyfriends, and kids get along so everyone enjoys themselves.
With fall coming the swimming will be over soon but the playdates and drinking dates will last forever! :)
