    Spontanous plans with friends! A phone call of "hey want to go bowling or want to get a drink?" is long gone and sleeping in...I miss sleeping in too. But luckily she's snuggly in the mornings!

    Going to bed late if I want to.
    Watching TV ALL DAY on Saturday or Sunday - OR BOTH!

    Going to the movies! DH and I really wanted to go to the movies for our anniversary tonight, but we couldn't find a sitter. I guess Netflix will just have to do!

    Sleeping in, down time to myself, playing video games, TV (I was sick of it in the first couple of months before DS would notice, but now I can barely get in a 1-hour show in a week), spontaneous date nights. Most of all I miss the occasional really lazy day with DH, when we could lie in bed snuggled up and do nothing for hours.

    Just being able to do whatever whenever, like going out to dinner or out with friends without having to think about getting someone to watch LO.

    Being able to make last minute plans and jumping in my car to go. SIGH.

    Going for dinner, movies and sleeping in. Also not having to clean up toys constantly.

    @Honeybee: Happy anniversary! If you want to drop off the little ones with us, we can watch them for a few hours!

    @Looch: We used to have Sunday Fundays too!

    @Mrs. Jacks: Ah, thanks! We're actually putting the kids to bed a little early so we can order Greek food, lol. I appreciate the offer, though! We have got to find a regular babysitt around here.

    @Honeybee: I have a possible person for you. Our friends are moving this month and their nanny may be looking for some part time work (though she is 23 wks pregnant!)

    Sleeping in, running by the store on my way home, doing little things without having to make major plans to make them happen.

    I miss those nice long hot showers I used to love! Now it's lugging baby monitors into the bathroom, washing my hair with one eye open. It's a good day if I can take a full 5 min shower,

    I miss "me" time! Like manis/pedis, dinner with friends, date nights! I'm used to sleeping at 3-4 hour increments already so sleep doesn't bother me as much!

    Sleeping at all and working out. I just don't have time to work out like I did pre-baby. It was a large part of my life, and I just don't know how to fit it in for the time being. And I have the worst sleeper. We've been up from 2-5am every night this week with teething.
