Feeling ignored

Chasity
We just found out 2 weeks ago that I'm pregnant. This one was planned. It seems like ever since then my husband wants to be anywhere I'm not. He'll spend lots of money to go nearly 3 hours away to see his family and spend all day there, sometimes the whole weekend. Then he'll want to take any opportunity to go down the block to my parents house and cookout or 10 minutes to the next town and spend all day with his dad. He leaves our house at 6:30 AM and comes home around 6 PM, monday though Friday for work. Then a half day of Saturdays. I understand he's probably exhausted from those long hours, but at the same time he seems to have a boost of energy whenever other people invite him over or ask him to come hang out. I just want to feel like more than a house wife or mom and actually feel wanted and loved by my husband. I guess my question is, should I be asking for dates, or a weekend with just him and I, or should I just wait for him to initiate things? I don't want to seem like a nagging wife either. Please be nice with your opinions and don't just put me down!
