Just the two of us

Annabelle and I were very sad to drop B and Gwyneth at the airport tonight. We were both in tears as we pulled away from the terminal. I'm sure my tears made the situation worse, but poor little Annabelle cried all the way to Village Inn from the airport.

Village Inn, you ask? Yep, we were close to Grandpa and Grandma's house so we stopped for a pie. Grandpa Meyer had an accident Saturday evening - he was out back doing some yardwork and fell and broke two ribs and bruised his kidney. Everyone knows pie makes everything better, especially for Grandpa Bob who is a pie junkie. We dropped off some triple berry pie and wished him well. We will see him again on Sunday to celebrate his birthday and hopefully he'll be full of pie and getting around much better/faster.

Annabelle and I kept busy tonight running errands. Although I miss my little GG terribly, I realize how important it is to have one on one time with each of my girls. I also realize how stinkin' easy it is to get around with just one little amiga! I was whipping that girl in and out of the car and running her all around town. She loved it! She hammed it up at each of our destinations and never made a fuss. We had a quiet dinner at home, Annabelle had a solo bath, and watched a little Diego. Annabelle is so attached to her dadda and little sister - she was looking all over the house for them before bed. She checked GG's empty crib and said "that's no ok, GG!". I'm pretty sure she thinks GG was hiding from her - which she has been known to do on occassion. They'll be back before we know it but I can't wait to see Annabelle's little face when we pick them up from airport.
I am happy to report that GG was a perfect angel on the flight out to Chi-town. B said she had their fellow passengers "ooohing" and "aaaahing" and I think B enjoyed the attention of being a dad traveling solo with a baby. YaYa and Madison snatched GG up at the airport and said she was all smiles and giggles. She's in good hands and being spoiled rotten!
