well it must be a good day as I don't have a whole lot to say but didn't like seeing myself sitting on pg 2.
h fell asleep on the couch last night (he was tired from having been out plowing) as he walked in the door last evening the kiddos running to him with hugs...the phone rang our neighbor had moved her car to the street and hoped that h could come back and give the drive another pass...I stayed on the phone with her for a few as she broke down in tears...her h had to leave the state to get work and has been there since...well months anyway..he was able to be home over christmas and for the birth of their third child but had to go back yesterday...so now she is home with 3 young children alone..I offered to go over and help her out or just be there after h plowed the drive...she said she'd be ok...so i offered to watch the older of the babies so she could get some rest or just spend some quiet time with the newborn and also offered anything even if she just wanted me to cook dinner for them or something... she seemed more upbeat as the conversation went on (the two youngest are just 2 years apart, something I am familiar with as my two are 2 yrs 4 months apart) so I let her go knowing that I'm here if she needs anything, stressed the anything..so went back to h who was looking like he'd like to just crash..and let him know of the conversation...told him I like to be needed...he said you are needed!
that was that...h came back...took shower with son while I bathed dd. then h was sitting at table to eat...I thought he might like to spend that time with son so I offered for him to have a picnic in the family room so h and son sat on a blanket watching tv and eating ravioli's and garlic bread. too cute. then son went off to bed. I lit a fire and chilled h soon fell asleep on the couch. I tried to wake him but he was too gone so I left him there (to many nights of me draggin him up to bed with him getting irritated with me have made me to just leave him there, if he wakes in the night he knows where his bed is) son woke this am to find daddy on the couch, a silly sight for son, so they sat on the couch together while dd played in her playpen. when h did awake I was making toast...he came over an put his hands around my waist (ooooh boy now that's what I'm talkin about! not a sex thing just a nice thing)
I decided to take the kids to the gym today and try out the daycare and workout...so h helped me pack them in the car...off we went...off h went to work.
the gym went well, I sweat my but off for 20 min on a machine (an oliptical glider) and then did the circut (I'll feel that tommorow) took a quick shower and picked up the kids... they seemed to have been having fun but another little girl asked me where her mommy was.
came home made lunch and then son helped me bake another batch of chocolate chip cookies....I don't know it seems a batch a week lately...over the summer a batch would last months...h must be home.
