Thanks everyone. The BBQ wasn’t too bad. I got there at 12:30pm and was home by 5:00pm. Honestly the other folks there were all about the infant and the 7 year old just played outside most of the time with water balloons. (Though in my part of the world it wasn’t warm enough for that.)
LT- I think it’s probably pretty normal that you aren’t necessarily interested in hanging around your friends kids. Most people I met in life with kids aren’t all “goo goo gaga” over other peoples kids.
