we had a late night last night.  Dean’s co-worker, wife, sister and their baby came over to play games.   Their baby is just a week or so older than Zeke.  Zeke had only had a half hour nap so we put him to bed right before they arrived, so they didnt get to play together.  but their baby stayed up and played while we played.  she was adorable!!  I love getting to enjoy little girls sometimes!  we played with our new WII for a bit, taking turns playing elebits and tennis.   then we played some “real” games.   they were here til about midnight!  it was fun!

Last week I was telling Dean I was hoping we’d move here and I’d be able to make friends and not have to mention my health.  that I’d be healthy and wouldnt have to worry about it, but as we were playing the pain got really bad again and I mentioned it to Dean and they heard me so I had to tell them about it.  I guess there’s no use hiding things, not the best way to start a new friendship huh?   but I would have loved to have that not be a part of my life.  I dont want people to feel sorry for me.

I felt bad but I really needed a social night, and having two ladies around helped!  last time I met his co-workers wife I told Dean how much I’d like to get to know her, we’d have a lot to talk about so it was pretty easy to talk to her again last night.   that makes things easier.   she’s a stay at home mom too so that’s cool.

today we are going to sign caleb up for soccer this spring, the options are volleyball, baseball or soccer.  Dean and I want him to play soccer but let him choose between baseball and soccer and the other day he told me he’d think about it.  this morning when I got up he told me he wanted to play soccer.

well I’m in the midst of a ton of things, the kids are keeping me busy, I’m tired and miserable but I’m letting Dean sleep in so he can be energized for later, plus I’ll take a nap when the kids do later and he doesnt take naps!  we’re going out to dinner and a show tonight at the theater we used to work with.  I’m really looking forward to it.  yesterday after my drs appt. I met w/ Dean for lunch then went to his office for a little bit to hang out.  it was so nice just to be me again, not mommy.  I need some more ME or ME and Dean time instead of always being on Mommy duty.   well I gotta run…bo’s getting into trouble.  what was I thinking, getting ME time to write while being on Mommy duty!?!?
