I arrived back in Kalamazoo just after midnight on Sunday night/Monday morning. It's a long old flight back. I was well tired, but I couldn't sleep for long. My legs were cramping really badly and with the jetlag I was just up early. I've been easing into coming back. I was looking forward to a slow week, but daughter rang last night and said Aurora has hand foot and mouth disease AGAIN and they need a babysitter. I am off first thing tomorrow morning (waaaayyy too early) to go babysit. It means another flight.
I had a GREAT time in England visiting my sister. The time went by far too quickly. We had lots of fun, walking, chatting, drinking, eating. I can't wait until next year! Of course, I have a gazillion photos to sort through.
Here are a few phone ones.
These are just from the first couple of days, around Ipswich and Felixstowe and a visit to Mum's bench to take some flowers. So good to be there again.
I am taking my computer to daughter's house so hopefully posts will be regular-ish depending on how tired out I am from Baby A lol
oh no hand , foot and mouth was a nightmare when they are in daycare. I remember our grand daughters getting it. Glad you had a good time in the UK
ReplyDeleteThis is the third time she's had it! SIL and daughter are getting a little annoyed at this point
DeleteWelcome back! So sorry to hear that Baby A is ill, again. Your daughter must be happy to know that you are back and available to babysit! Enjoy your time together.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I think they appreciated me being there
DeleteYou were lucky with the weather - great photos. Have a lovely week with baby A...
ReplyDeleteWe were certainly were!
DeletePoor Aurora - it seems so unfair that she keeps suffering from the same ailment. I hope you can catch up and restore your rhythms. It's nice to be needed, though.😊
ReplyDeleteShe seems to have a good week or two then gets something else!
Delete51 days and I'll be heading to the UK. I'm glad your time was lovely. Poor baby and the juggling parents have to do when they need childcare. That's kind of you to go there.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! I had a great time with some great company and food! I wish I was closer to help out a bit more.
DeleteLovely pictures and I'm glad you had a wonderful time. Poor little one...that tough!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteIs that rum and raisin ice-cream? I haven't had it in years but used to really like it.
ReplyDeleteIt was rum and raisin. If there's not a Whippy about I have that lol
