Mummy in London, Oh My!

 I must say, I am enjoying all the time with the kids this week. Shifra flew to London on Thursday morning, and we are having a mostly great time (though we miss her).

Thursday: Pickup from Gan by friends, pasta for dinner, lots of playing and reading time, sitting with Hadar until she fell asleep. Also no babysitter, so was me and Meital all day.

Friday: Hadar came into my room and watched me sleep. Woke up with a pair of eyes staring at me. Kids went to Gan early, meaning we got to go to the park for a while, then I picked them both up at 12. From there we went to Yishpro, to get a car wash, fill up gas, fix a tire, and get a treat (Chalom Yaakov is better than Dani). The kids enjoyed all of those. Then we went to Bubi and Pops and had a super fun afternoon with the kids, I.brought pizza from across the street. Hadar went to sleep with me next to her again, rest of the kids were great. She ended up sleeping in Bubi's room from midnight though. Dinner was fun, just my parents, Nava, and me. 

Shabbat: I was able to go to teen minyan which was nice, then we had a ben n jerrys kiddush and then yummy lunch. THe kids ate an amazing amount of food. The afternoon was fun too, with lots of playing, and playing at the airplane park, and then bringing kids to Mincha. Then my parents and Nava went to the Seuda Shlishit and I stayedf home to relax and clean up after our messy selves. Saturday night we went to play football, which was fun as well. 

Sunday: started way too early, Hadar was screaming at 4 am which then woke Meital and me up. It took until 6 am on the couch to be able to go back to sleep for me and Hadar. Then Eitan came down and I told him we were not able to talk, just snuggle. But drop off was fine at Gan (though late). After Gan, Eitan and I hung out (Merav had been with Meital), and then we walked to pick Hadari up and play in the park for an hour. Was super fun. I gave the kids leftovers and put them to sleep. Bedtime was pretty goodf, though I tried to get Hadar back used to me not being there and instead kept coming in to check on her while I did things around the house. Moderate success.

Monday: The kids came in to bed for snuggles, we ate, got ready, and dropped Meital off at Bubi, and the kids at Gan. Woke up with a little headache, and took the day off. Hoping to clean this place before the ladt gets back. Wish me luck!!
