Tomorrow: splash park, all by myself, with Dino. Sigh.
I swear I might as well be a single mom. My husband is never around for things like this. It's a shame, really.
Stupid hospitality business!
I made my DH take our two oldest swimming while the trips were napping. I mowed the lawn while they were sleeping.
Nothing exciting.
That bites Allie, I'm sorry....
I know it's tough when you have to do so much by yourself. I've been there myself too. My DH used to be an over the road truck driver and I was basically raising my two oldest boys by myself. I was SOOO ready to walk, so many times. Thank God he does not do it anymore. I told him never again, or I was outta there.
Quoting Leobaby2007:Dairy Queen and The Dollar Tree lol. My son is so easily satisfied.

OMG, Ann, sometimes I am SO ready to WALK! And it's not even like he gets paid big bucks or anything! UGH.
I know THIS is not his fault, though. It just stinks. Ideally, tomorrow, being a holiday and all, my husband should have the day off and he should be able to accompany us to the splash park.
I'm not going to insert myself into someone else's family outing and be a 5th wheel, unless they asked, which they never do- they're busy with their own families.
It happened last year over 4th of July weekend. My husband was working, and my parents and brother and SIL were on a cruise together, so I took D by myself to a splash park and somehow (I swear I must have an sign on my head that only kids can see that reads : COME TALK TO ME), because I was suddenly surrounded by 4 children, ages 2-5 and all but the 2 year old talked my ear off- I didn't even know where to look first lol. Telling me about their birthday party themes, where they lived, if they did not live in Scottsdale. A 4 year girl informed she was from Tampa and that "there were dolphins there"- so cute. The 5 year old couldn't stop talking about his Captain Jack Sparrow themed brithday party so much so that the 4 year old girl (unrelated to him) kept rolling her eyes, and the 3 year old girl was getting some commentary in as well. The 2 year old girl just stood and watched, taking it all in, and was very interested in all the hooplah, and my son just sat there, on my lap, looking around, not saying a word, acting as if the children were not even there. How could have noticed this before? When did the kids get so verbal and social? I'm so used to him that I never really bothered to look at other kids anymore because it became too painful.
I knew then and there that we'd get an autism dx for sure in September. It was so obvious- the lack of social interaction on his part.
Heartbreaking, but I survived. I'll survive this too. :-) It's just lonely. That's all.
Happy Memorial Day, everyone!!!
