jer and mackenzie had some daddytime on the weekend. now i will be the first to admit i sometimes get jealous of how much mack is a daddy's girl. i can't blame her though, my hubby is a lot of fun, but sometimes i wish i was the favorite. any of you know what i mean?during the week she can't wait for the weekend so she get's her daddytime at the park or other fun places these two go on adventures to. this last weekend they hit up the baseball field. my hubby grew up playing ball and he is training mack already. i do have to say we think she already has quite the throwing arm...but then, we are her parents. she has never watched live baseball before, only on tv with him, so this was quite the treat for her. she picked up those ball players moves so fast and hasn't stopped imitating them at home. her little wiggle of the hips before she swings is priceless.
sometimes i wonder about the things these two get into when i'm not there that they aren't telling me about. jer always says, "we'll be gone an hour" and they are gone 2 and when i ask for the lowdown on their outing, he says "a little of this and a little of that". cmon now, i want in on the action. i find myself torn a lot between needing a break from the little one and then feeling sad because i miss out on all the fun.
it sure is fun hearing about their adventures though (those of which they will tell me about), and seeing the surprise photos that end up at home along with the grass stained clothes and secret giggles. ahhh, the joys of parenting :)
I totally understand about the twinge of jealousy when the kids want to spend time with dad and not you. My kids get me all the time so when daddy comes home it is like the biggest event of the year! I do appreciate some time to myself every now and again but I do hate missing out on whatever they will be doing. I often find myself cutting my me time short so I can get back and join in on the fun. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm already jealous of the countless baseball games the hubs and the dude will probably go to. I only hope they let me tag along sometimes. Ah ha.
ReplyDeleteShe is seriously SO adorable. I love her little face and attitude. CUTE CUTE CUTE!!
ReplyDeletei WISH i were not the favourite! sometimes N is asking for me 2.5 minutes after papa gets home, especially if i am trying to prepare dinner at the time. and sometimes i wonder why she wants me - i'm not always that pleasant to be around at the end of the day!
ReplyDeleteSo nice to know I am not the only one....thanks for all of your comments ladies :)
