Dear Kate and Elliott,
If Mama ever complains about you being lazy teenagers and wasting the day away as you sleep past 9 then 10 then 11 - please remind me of these days of my life - and I promise to shut up and enjoy every moment. Love Mama
Needless to say my babies are not sleeping here at Aunty and Uncle's - at least not at night. They seem to have adjusted to a Calgary bedtime but are still on a Moncton wakeup. Which means Mama and Elliott up at 3 am sneaking around looking for breakfast - then by the time I get him back to sleep Kate's up and we're working on a am second breakfast. Yikes.
In other news my extreme anxiety over our flights out here were in vain - almost. It was a very trying 8 hours but there were no fits from either so I am super pumped. The guy who sat in front of Kate - less so. If she opened her tray table up once it was 120 times. He didn't complain until deplaning and even then he wasn't too snarky. I wish I could say that I would have been the same pre-kids but I probably would have at least given the new me an evil hate filled eye.
Upon deplaning Kate was very happy to see her cousin Aidan and Grandma Sherri. Since then they both have been a tornado of activity and chatter. Elliott over night has turned into a wild man - climbing everything! They're both digging all Aidan and the Bedard ladies' toys. Kids do love toys.
In short aside from the sleep we are having a great start to our trip. We love you and miss you Papa. Kate picks up lots of toys and tells me that she's going to show you them and have you fix all the toys that are broken or missing batteries.
A few pics...
Sleepy time with Aunty. Upon closer examination I believe Aunty is in her undies. Ooops.
Our musical men.
Jessie quickly found a replacement cowboy hat here in cowtown.
