The company started pouring through the door by 11:00am. First came my Grandparents :) They wanted to see the kiddo's and to bring them their Valentines. My mom was hot on their heels and everyone was bustling around our tiny farmhouse by the time I exited the bathroom. I took a full sledged hot shower and did not feel bad whatsoever. It is Sunday, and this is my day to pamper myself with an extra hot, solo, extended shower. No guilt.
So we all visit and the kids play their little hearts out! They show everyone how cute and naughty they are, and perform their cool tricks. My Grandparents needed to leave after about an hour, but have no fear, Keith's parents were there about 30 minutes later. They brought lunch and dessert! Lunch issue saved!!! My mom changes Bo and Cote as I make them a sippy and bottle, and she sits down to help me feed them. Gage is pounding away at the PS3, Keith is visiting, and I am getting intensely drowsy.
Afterwards, we have lunch and I eat mostly the dessert! Is is this orange cream thing with like a crumbly crust. Gage calls it Heaven. Keith calls it Angelic. I call it The Devil... I cannot leave it alone. A bit later, my mom keeps telling me to lay down. I do not want to though because we have all this company. No lie, I pass out about 15 minutes later. All of a sudden, someone is saying goodbye to me and I realize what I have done!!! I feel like a jerk and a rotten hostess, and then I pass back out. After I wake up, I find out my father-in-law was passed out on the floor behind the couch I was sleeping on. Maybe he had too much dessert as well, lol.
At this point, Cote is passed out and Gage and Bo are going strong! Neither has taken a nap and both are wired!!! I get Gage to drink a glass of milk and I send him outside to run. since my mom is still here though, he only lasts about five minutes before heading back inside. I think my poor mom is starting to get fried, and I offer for her to head on home. She gets a twinkle in her eye and asks if I am sure. Lol. Oh course I am sure. She is now not only "Grandma" but our second PCA. She is doing really well, but it is I who is struggling. She is my mom so I always worry about her burning out. She works full-time at Polaris, and now she is our PCA to give me a hand.
So mom takes off and Keith and I get everyone fresh drinks.
Sunday, Crazy Sunday...
