    We are busy, busy, busy...

    The house is far from quiet and I like it. I'm in the kitchen a lot preparing food but get help cleaning up and putting things away. Probably half the time in the kitchen though is for the extra things that I just don't do frequently for just the four of us... dips, cookies, other desserts.

    Sunday was a zoo day. We had a picnic lunch and saw many of the animals. By the end of the day, Lauren and Faith were walking around holding hands. :) Oh, and Eric waved and said "Hi" to the kangaroos.

    Bun treated us to Cold Stone last night. Yum! When she got home from picking it up, I find that wasn't all she went out for. She and Steph ran to the grocery store again for some things they needed and also picked up roses for me as a thank you. How nice!

    Lauren stayed home from daycare yesterday and had a blast. They spent most of the day at the mall. One of the items she and Faith got were matching nightgowns. I've never seen Lauren take a bath so quickly so she could get some extra play time in with Faith last night. She went down in her new duds and Faith got hers on too. Way too cute!! I have a feeling Lauren is going to be a little depressed when Faith goes home tomorrow.

    Oh, and I received the most comical line yet from my dear daughter after I got home from work yesterday... "Why are you here?" I expected a hi mommy, a smile, a hug, something other than that. I could only laugh. After all, it was proof of what a wonderful day she had.

    Change of Plans
    [info]twench just called. Faith asked if Lauren can go downtown with them. Oh dear. I'm not ready for this. We're going to let her go. She is in good hands and they said she behaved really well yesterday. I know she is going to have a blast. I just hope they make the 9:00 train now. Lauren was still sleeping when [info]twench called at 8:30...

    I think I'll be nervous all day today. I wasn't yesterday when they were trotting around our area. But this is downtown.

    Gosh. I always thought we would be the ones to take her to Chicago for the first time. Be the ones to share her first train ride...

    I keep telling myself this is fine. We'll have other train rides and other trips downtown. I know. I'm just adjusting my expectations.
