Margarita Time!

Tuesday, May 6, 2008

So yesterday was a fairly uneventful day in itself because my little guy has been suffering from a cold. I decided to keep him in from our usual Monday morning activities and we spent most of the afternoon just playing around the house. On Monday nights I usually do a water boot camp class but a girl in my mom's group came up with the idea that us mom's just get together last night for margaritas at the Earl's in Sherwood Park. I must say after last night, I love those girls even more. It was 3 and a half hours of some of the best conversation I've ever had. I can honestly say that joining the New Mom's Network after I had Liam was one of the best decisions I've ever made. We moved down to Edmonton from Fort McMurray 3 years ago now and the only friends I really had were previous friends that had also moved down from Fort Mac. Since I work in a predominantly male surrounded profession (industrial safety) meeting some nice female friends at work was never really an option. I came to realize quick making friends was much easier when I was 5! So when I had Liam I decided that I would join every and anything to try and meet some new mom friends and I definitely hit the jack pot with my new mom's group. They are tremendous support and just all around a great time!

The downfall of last night was I didn't get home until close to 12 and Liam decided to wake up at 1:00. He was then awake until close to 4:30!!! and decided to wake up for the day at 7:30. My word of the day is exhaustion. The positive of it is his cold seems to be going away and he is in an incredibly chipper mood for a kid that hasn't slept much. Here's to hoping we both can get a good nap in this afternoon.

No nap for me. He went to sleep at 4:00 for 20 minutes. The kid is like the energizer bunny.... way too much energy.
