Wow, those days were a long time ago. I get exhausted just thinking about them. It just gets better as they get older, although juggling the schedules can be more of a challenge. Enjoy this new stage!

I love that my older boys (9 and 11) have started connecting the dots from our travels. They excitedly remember places we've been when they're doing a project at school or reading a book. When we go somewhere that has a connection to a previous place, they make it on their own. We've been going to more state and national parks. I remember when they were littler I had to give them ideas of what to do, go play cowboys and Indians, see if there are fish in the lake, etc. Now they have their own ideas of what they want to do and where fun might be hiding. Even my home body is starting to look for places he'd like to visit and telling me what he wants to see when he gets there. .-= sue rodman´s last blog ..Big Weekend of Fun in Atlanta =-.

I love it! I am sooo looking forward to that. I am almost there. I see the light. I have a 7 year old and a 2 1/2 year old. Another year or so and I will be set. I loved the trips this summer with no crib, although we do still have the diapers and sippie cups. Any step forward is great. .-= Heidi´s last blog ..Mom misses the point... =-.

I know exactly what you mean…I’m vacationing right now in Southern California with my kids and my sister and her almost-one-year-old. Suddenly we’re cast back into the world of twice-daily naps, walkers, and high chairs. It’s fun…because it’s not MY baby! *g*

I'm looking forward to hearing more stories from you as we are in the same phase. It's nice to be able to go places without stroller and diaper bags. But I have to admit that sometimes we do miss stroller especially at the end of the day when they don't wanna walk by themselves. .-= Amy @ The Q Family´s last blog ..5 Tips for Family Backyard Camping from First Time Camper =-.

What a bitter-sweet moment of awareness. I’m entering the “we’ll probably never all travel together again” place — I’m with you on the change!!

I LOVE the hanging out in the bathroom. The things we parents do. I’ve been feeling the same way lately with my two – all of sudden I don’t have babies! Can’t wait to read your upcoming “growing up” posts.
