Our first stop was to our babysitter Adela's house. We haven't seen her since the move, and it was so great to catch up with her again. I have missed her just as much as the kids have....she was the one who made the building of our new house possible. She spent many days (and even a night) here while Lee worked and I was 2 hours away in house meetings. The hardest part of our move, at least for me, was saying goodbye to Adela.
When we got to her house, she served us an elaborate spread of Peruvian food. The kids had some non- Peruvian ice cream, which they were quite happy about.
Later that day, we took Colby to see Cars 2 with his friends Sophie and Megan....
During the movie, Colby was a little restless, so I told him we'd go walk around the lobby for a little bit. He stood up, turned around and looked up at the projection area and yelled "CAN YOU PAUSE THIS?"
While we were at the movie, Adela babysat Miller, and then it was time for one last picture and goodbye hugs. Hopefully we will see Adela again soon.
That evening, Colby had a sleepover with his buddy Megan, and MIller slept downstairs with me. (putting her feet in my face all night- remind me not to do that again any time soon)
The next day, Colby met up with his friend Lucas at the playground....
and oh, how we have missed this wonderful playground! It's a dumping ground for old toys, and all the kids have a blast there.
After a quick lunch, we headed home. And amazingly, it's actually starting to feel like home.
