IYB weekend-- Penn State class of 2032-34

What a weekend.  I miss my Penn State girls... my IYBs.  I can't believe we are almost a decade out of school, because it seems like just yesterday we were trying on outfits for a Saturday night out, cheering on the Penn State football team, and taking about spring break.  This weekend though, the conversations were a little different.  Which brand of clothing fits our skinny boys best, how to get them to eat veggies, how to get them sleeping longer and whining less.







It is quite a shift from just a few years ago, but it feel natural, and it feel good.  I love these girls and I love their kids.  This weekend we stopped to celebrate the newest anointed member of PSU 2.0.  Amelia bravely joined the clan of all boys, breaking with tradition, and shining some mighty girl power for such a little thing. 



The three "C" musketeers of Chase, Colin, and Carter, stopped to admire their newest member, if only for a few fleeting seconds before continuing their path of toddler destruction! We also celebrated a few IYBs that couldn't make it, including Katie who is working on the 5th little member due to arrive in a few months. 




We sat around in yoga pants and PSU T-shirts, not unlike many Saturday's at PSU, but this time we played with duplos, sang songs, and made funny faces.  Life is good and my batteries are re-charged after a weekend of overflowing love, good memories, and making news ones with the second generation.  I love that life keeps surprising us when were didn't know it could get better.
