heathrowgaThanks to lemon_says and mrs__smith for inviting us to their Friday morning playgroup. The girls had so much fun, and it was nice to talk with other adults. :D Katie showed off her independence and lack of fear, while Amelia ran around and really had a blast.
On our way home, the girls fell asleep in the car which FUBARed any real nap happening in the afternoon. Oh, well. I picked up lunch with Milkshakes! from Steak and Shake for us. We were in a great but under-slept mood after that.
We spent the afternoon puttering about the house, then a lick of grocery shopping. Katie completely melted down at the end of the shopping trip, but it had been a long day. I prepared spaghetti with jarred sauce, completely unembelished. I feel zero guilt about this.
Poor Katie - she kept waking up last night. I was woken up 6 times by her throughout the night, then Amelia the early bird came into my room at 6:25. She let me doze on and off til 8:30, so I rewarded her with pancakes and bacon for breakfast.
I think Katie's room got much colder last night than I thought. She woke up this morning with a slightly purple cast to her lips. Tonight, I'll actually put on the heat upstairs. (It's been getting down into the high 40s at night, and the house doesn't get colder than 65 right now. However, if I'm freezing poor Katie at night, I'll gladly put the heat on.
Tom called at 10 this morning from outside the British Parliament. I'm glad he's getting to see the sights. He's been working hard, and being away from everyone has to be hard. I'm sure he enjoyed the first couple of nights of being able to sleep and eat without two children, but that passes.
14 days until he's home. I miss him palpably. We've found our groove here without him, but it's like my heart is missing.
