You have a right to feel how you feel because they are your feeling. You dont want to feel left out you want to feel like you are all a family. It has been eight years in a relationship. You should not be left out of any plans. You need to talk about how you feel. Explain how would he feel if you planned a trip without him. Sometimes people do not realize they are excluding someone. Your feeling should be know and expressed. You could even get involve by saying you woukd like to plan a trip with him and the girls. It would be a nice family trip. He needs to let you in this part of his lufe, this is a eight year relationship, he needs to include you in these trips. Tell him how you feel.
