I am SO ready for bed

The stagette yesterday was a great time. We had some games and drinks, and then took a water taxi to Kaibo for a great supper. I think Julie had a really good time and she had a lot of fun with all the girls. I was home by midnight last night, so not a crazy night! Too bad I started waking up at 5am today... AK didn't come home until after 1030am today!

AK waved me happily out the door when I dropped her off... guess she was fine with me going! Christie let me know that AK went down at 9pm last night that "she ate a BIG supper. We had fun tonight. Planted her chives and had Julie and Zach over for supper. AK is an angel. She liked playing with Johnny and Bubba too". AK walked in the door with her newly planted chives and Christie even decorated the plant with a lovely peacock feather! I will have to be sure to water this plant so that we can have chives! Christie told me that AK helped with Johnny while Christie made supper - bringing toys to him and playing with him. I took a really cute photo of the two of them watching cartoons together but am too lazy to get up to find the camera and download the picture. I'll share it tomorrow.

I lazed around for the morning, which was nice as I was so tired, but I have to say, I was anxious to have AK home again! We ended up not going to church but went for breakfast with the Babbs instead. We headed back to their place for a short swim which tired the kids out pretty good for their naps. AK slept for nearly 3 hours, which was great for me as I read for a while and rested too.

Angie, Francois, Milanna and the Babbs came over for supper. The kids got along SO well. We broke the ice with some bubbles, always a kid-pleaser. The girls got pretty noisy - there's something about that high-pitched screaming that can drive a parent crazy :S AK loves the attention from the guys - lots of rough-housing and fun stuff.

I got some really sweet hugs and kisses from AK this morning once Christie dropped her off. She is always so good when she is with other people but I think she is happy to be with her mama once again. AK is starting to learn to manipulate me but she is also learning that I'm on to her... after I tucked her in, she started crying for me because she wanted her night light turned off. I told her that I'd turn it off but that she'd better not cry for me to come back in to turn it back on... when I asked her if she still wanted it off, she cried "yes" but she knew I meant what I said!
