Home With The Boys – Oh For Some Estrogen in the House

WARNING MINOR PITY PARTY LOL
I just feel down in the dumps, mopy, Blah, etc. today… Twin Group is cancelled due to many reasons – one mom has an inflamed ear canal and would have to bring ALL of her 6 kids, another works tonight and then there is the Oiler’s game that it seems most people are planning to stay home and watch… me… I am just BLAH. I played WoW while Emanuel napped (the little angel is on his floor toy right now playing – he already squiggling around and pulling at toys), I tidied a little, checked my email… wow does that sound BORING! And, truth… it is.
I guess it comes down to a lack of opportunity, just ONCE I would LOVE to have someone invite me out instead of my usual planning and inviting. I know it is difficult since A. I do NOT drive, B. I have a wee baby who goes where I go, C. I have 2 other children who need to be watched and who, out on an outing, take the majority of my attention, D. Naptime is basically the WHOLE afternoon and finally E. well no one has asked lately (ok F. not many people live within invite distance). After years of planning events/get togethers/visits/etc I would just LOVE someone to plan an event FOR me/invite ME out/etc… course I am tired from breastfeeding at night and such so I may just be overly emotional and tired… ok so I AM overly emotional and tired, but I may be right too – who knows??
I don’t remember mentioning this but Emanuel is now 14lbs 12.5oz and almost 24" long… he is getting so big so fast, but now that he is moving around more we should see a slower weight gain.
My dad will be here on Thursday for the first time in TWO YEARS!!! YAY. Emanuel’s baptism is this Sunday… we are keeping it rather small but if I have not mentioned it to you, you are welcome to come. I have just been really caught up in, well, LIFE. I am hoping Ken can get off early on Friday and have Monday off, my dad leaves for Edmonton Monday night to fly out Tuesday morning. So short a visit but still… we are planning on leaving the twins with my mom and going with dad to eat. I miss him so much…
So, after whining about something that in the grand scheme of things is minor and probably just my need for sleep and adult conversation coming out in a negative way – the weather is pleasant, the kids healthy and Ken and I still very much in love. Add to that Ken’s job, a roof over our heads and food in the ‘fridge and we are rather blessed. Of course what are BLOGS for but whining and bemoaning your fate? LOL I promise this will not become the norm, I do have a rather lovely life/family/friends/etc! and I promise I realize that – most days HEHE
