Tired out

The past few days have been quite emotional ones, and I think I just need a mediocre day to recover! Joelle and Kevin had their new baby, Mikka, on Wednesday so that was me sitting around, waiting for the news that the baby was born. Then Thursday I went and saw Mikka and Joelle, and I guess once you give birth, your emotions leave you high and dry because as soon as I saw Mikka, I started tearing up! Babies are so beautiful! Today is Sammy's TENTH birthday (a milestone for sure) and my Dad also called today saying he wasn't feeling well and was going to the emergency room at St. Boniface to get his chest pain checked out.

I initially went to the hospital to see how he was doing, and he was walking around all over the waiting room, leaving me to sit by myself. After about 45 minutes of this, I decided to go home since he did not seem to be agitated or in distress and his EKG was not concerning the ER staff at the time. I am still waiting for a call from him to say he is ok, though. It has been about 4 hours since I left the hospital and his cell phone is off, of course.

In the morning we are off to a busy start as I need to pack up Ava and take Alix and Sam to their bowling league. In the afternoon, I hope Marc offers to watch Ava for an hour or two so I can have a nap or just take a time out for a while! I know he also promised to take the boys toboganning tomorrow afternoon, so hopefully the weather will stay reasonable for them. We still have to give the house a quick vaccuum and clean-up as Sam's birthday party is on Sunday. Phew! I'll be glad when this weekend is over and back to boring normal!
