No Margaritas?

So, because I've spent the last 2 years being pregnant, giving birth and recovering...I've rarely had that "night out on the town" time with friends (shoot, one date with Esteban last November, pretty sad). I am often invited but usually have to turn my gal pals down. This is one of the reasons we are anxious to be closer to family. We just don't have the ability to lend the kiddies to someone else for a couple of hours so that we can do something for ourselves on a regular basis. And no...I'm not forgetting the handful of you that have offered - it's just hard to ask for time, even from really good friends.

Anyway, so while nothing has been set in stone, my buddies have mentioned a farewell gathering during Happy Hour at one of the regular spots. All but one of the get-togethers over the last 24 months, I've been prego and unable to indulge in a cocktail. Not that I'm a big drinker or anything. It’s just nice to have a little bit of a buzz now and again with friends while toasting good news. Earlier this morning. I learned that one of my gals is expecting and so now we'll be teasing her about having to sip on virgin drinks and water.

Not terribly interesting, but I thought it was funny!

About Me

My photo
I am a 30-something year old mother of three. My eldest is about to complete his first year of school...Kindergarten! I thought that was going to be the most difficult challenge this year. I was wrong. I am also mom to Two in Diapers (hence the name of this blog). Balancing life is a struggle, and most often, I have had to put many of my passions on hold. My husband is an angel, and if it weren't for him (he being who he is), I don't know how I would survive. Little by little, I am trying to put everything back in order. The last 24 months have been very rocky. It started with my baby sister being diagnosed with cancer, shortly followed by my father's death. Over the months, we have been slammed time after time by devastating news, but we are surviving as a family. I hope you will join me as I try to piece the story together, both past and present.
