Matt has been at work all day. He left on time, and there wasn't even any pouting!
The world has not come to an end, both babies are alive and well, the house isn't even that messy. I don't feel overwhelmed, I know I am capable of taking care of two babies, I'm not worried about them both crying at the same time, and I'm not stressed about accomplishing 100 things and being the supermom, wonder-wife, and all that impressive stuff.
The only hitch in everything to do with Matt being at work and me being home?
I am so lonely!
Over the last 2.5 weeks I've really become accustomed to having constant company. Like, to the point where it's only been just over 3 hours since getting home from being out with my MIL, and I'm still feeling lonely. I was fully prepared to go shopping alone with 2 kids this morning, but I wanted her along just for the company.
You know, being lonely is a pretty good thing to feel, though. It's more easily overcome than other feelings I could have (and DID feel after I had Elijah and Matt went back to work then.) I can venture out to the local early years centre, go visit Farrah or Wendy, maybe even brave the library with a toddler for their wee wiggles program. It's definitely do-able, or at least it will be once I'm more relaxed about bringing Abigail out to more public places. I look forward to not being so worried about that.
Which reminds me, I need to book her 2-month shot appointment and get the flu shot.
Anyway, I've got to pack up the diaper bag so that we're ready to go once Matt gets home. It's haircut/dinner out night! AND out first real FHE with Elijah (because we've been too lazy to do them with a baby who is now more toddler than baby...) so we have a busy night ahead of us. Yay!
