Ah. The good news and the bad news. Let`s start with the good news. We are all back from Mexico, and fairly healthy. It was H-O-T. That`s the summary. Anyways. Safe travels, and good times. R started a camp today, put on by the local swim club. She was a little nervous, but the good news was she came out with a huge smile, and “Mummy, I had a great time!!” That was wonderful to hear. I made her have a nap, with the hour time change and late bed time yesterday (plus an 8:30 start time!) and while getting her to quiet down was NASTY, when she woke she was sin such a good mood, and we had a lovely cuddle session. Also, this evening I so very much enjoyed feeding a baby J his bottle, rocking him gently. He smelled so good, fresh from a bath, smelling like Aveeno…mmm yummy. He was trying to fight sleep, so I got to watch his eyes drift close, then open, then cross slowly as they drifted shut again. Good times… Grandpa also came over for supper. I actually managed to get to the local market and cook a full dinner! The first corn on the cob of the season! J enjoyed gnawing on the cob. <\/p>\n
And the bad you ask? Well, today was the first day that daddy started back to work after his parental leave…yes, he’s been home with us since the little J-man joined our family. It was sad. We have had such good times together, and just lovely being together as a family…It was sad to see it come to an end, but I realize that we were so very privileged to be able to take that time together…<\/p>\n
I will try to post pictures from Mexico soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
