Has anyone ever seen that commercial where the dad takes the kids back-to-school shopping at Office Depot (or is it Staples??) and the song playing in it goes, "It's the most wonderful time of the year..."??!!!
S9 and S5 are now in school for the year ....and speaking of school, I'm still waiting on my supplies to get here. I can't hardly wait to begin!!
Anyway, I don't know if anyone remembers the post where I expressed concern about H watching all 3 boys when it was his time to have them for visitation. I was afraid he thought he was only going to be watching S9 and S5 during those visits and not the baby......well, I was right .
H called Monday morning to make arrangements with me for picking up the kids, and when I mentioned something that had to do with the baby, he said, "Oh....I'm taking (baby), too?" I told him yes then he said ok.
H had them from Monday night through yesterday afternoon, and all I got were phone calls from H that whole time....griping and complaining about having to watch the baby and not being able to spend real quality time with S9 and S5..... .....Doesn't he understand? This is a package deal. Whether he wanted the little one or not, he is his son, and H needs to bond with him just as much as he does with the other two.
This weekend is H's weekend to have them again, and all I heard yesterday when I went to pick them up was, "I don't know how I'm going to make it through the weekend with him, JV. I want to do XYZ with (S9) and (S5), and I can't do that when I have (baby).".....I think he was trying to get me to say, "Oh, ok, H. You don't have to worry about (baby) then. He can stay with me."....UH UH! NO WAY! H has to do this. This is how it is, but I did suggest that he talk with MIL about watching the baby Friday night for him so he can have that time with just the other two. H called me later last night to tell me he did just that.
Sooo.....what am I going to do this weekend?? Hmmm.....I'm not sure yet, but whatever I do, I will have fun doing it!! Maybe I'll go out and pamper myself with a manicure, pedicure, and some window-shopping ! Fun, fun, fun!!!!
Everyone, have a lovely weekend! Thanks for listening.
