Sarah Jane is Here!


Mmmm, Zwieback Toast.



I get sad sometimes when it is all gone :(


Wowee, what an exciting and exhausting week! We picked Sarah Jane up on Wednesday and she appears to be enjoying herself. She did very well at sleeping on the plane and does not seem to be bothered by the time change. Thursday she unfortunately spent a lot of time alone - got to sleep in and then had to wait for Mommy and me. Friday, we picked Daddy up from the trian and then we all went to school to help Mommy pack up her office and check out. Her boss was really nice, said fairwell, and even gave her a lil' bonus (everyone got one).




So far we've taken Sarah to:



1) Ely for a tour of the Cathedral (and got to hear some singing prayer).

The Cathedral as you enter town.



2) Bury St. Edmunds to see the gardens and ruins.





3) Bath, a beautiful city.


Where I had a picnic in the park and met a French boy (who let me wear his hat)

Putney Bridge



4) Leeds Castle... an estate really and quite amazing.



Dual purpose: Keeps sun out and good for teething.

Beautiful Gardens
Lots of Birds. The Toucan was my fav.



And we still plan to go to; London (x2), Cambridge, another castle, and one of the coasts! I think she may have more she wants to do but time is limited. Maybe she'll come back and see us again?!?
Did I mention the exhausting part?



In my news, I continue to work hard on this crawling thing. I manage - not an "official" crawl, but I get around. Apparantly for all you Yogis out there, I am quite the Yoga Guru and find myself in "Downward Facing Dog" often :) The teeth continue to erupt, interrupting life and sleep as we once new it. Mommy says she's not fighting it this week since my time will be all messed up after Monday...




Oh, can you believe I'm coming home in one week!?! I am so excited to meet everyone. On that note, lots to do and I'll see you soon!

Love,
Madelyn et. al.
VIDEO: Kinda bumpy because we were in the car. I'm soooo entertaining!

Oh my goodness Maddy I can't wait to see you!! Once again I think you are getting bigger and bigger each week!

So--what are you up to in England? It looks like you are--growing like a weed, staying as cute as ever, practicing your yoga to work out with me, and most important picking up French boys!! I am so proud of you!!

Counting down the days...love you!

P.S. I hope you have a lot more fun with Sarah and don't give mommy and daddy a hard time on the plane!
