Scott made it home today! YAY!!! I told the girls yesterday evening that he would be coming home today and so when Abby came into my room this morning, the first question out of her mouth was "Where's Daddy?". She was very disappointed when I told her we had to wait until after Mckenzie's nap to see Daddy. Both girls slept until 7am! What a great way to start the day. I made the girls some eggs and bacon and we hung out inside for a little while. The girls wanted to color and coloring turned into water painting. What a mess! Instead of using the paint brushes like the were supposed to do, those little buggers were digging the little fingers into the paint and splashing around in the water. They were more interested in what color the water was turning than painting. Abby did manage to paint one picture and it turned out quite nice if I do say so myself! She also drew a picture for Daddy. It was an airplane, our family of four, and Grandpa and Grandma, and Grandma. Very sweet. We went for another bike ride this morning and Abby was still very cautious about how fast she would ride, although, there were a few times she dared go a little faster. We played at the park for a little while and then headed back for lunch. I made the girls PB & J sandwiches again and Abby complained as soon as she saw it. "Why are we having peanut butter sandwiches and fruit again?" Sorry. Just didn't feel like cooking :) Mckenzie went down for her nap. She was very excited to go to her crib and get her pacifier. She gets the biggest smile on her face and snuggles into her bear. Abby played with her puzzles, not putting the together, but building roads with them and driving cars on them. Children are so imaginative! After nap, Abby was ready to go get Scott but I told her we had to wait a little bit. The girls took a bath and had an early dinner and we were finally out the door to pick up Scott. Unfortunately we got a little delayed. I was putting some things in the front seat of the car and I didn't see Abby behind me and when I opened the door, it hit her in the head! OUCH! I felt so bad for her. At least she used the ice pack to help control any swelling. Then Mckenzie needed a diaper change and we were finally on the road. It was a quick trip to Philly, but once we got to the airport, we couldn't find Scott. On the third swing past the terminals, we finally saw him. The girls were so excited. I can't believe the straps on their car seats held them in, they were jumping around so much. And squealing! Those girls love their Daddy and couldn't get enough of him. At one point on the drive back home, Abby was talking and I answered her. Her response to me? "No Mommy, I was talking to Daddy!" Sorry. Then she asked Scott if he would play with her for a little bit when we got home. When he said yes, she said they could only play for a little bit because then she had to get ready for bed because she had school tomorrow. Then she asked Scott if he would take her to school tomorrow. When he told her he would, she shouted "Woo hoo". So cute. Oh, the other funny thing was after Scott told her they could play for a little when we got home, she asked me if it was ok for the two of them to play. I love it. I guess she does know who the boss is! Mckenzie kept shouting Daddy and when we would laugh, she would shout it even louder. Both girls couldn't stop smiling and when we got home, they wouldn't leave his side. They kept tackling him and begging to be tickled. We finally got them settled down and off to bed for the night. It is so great to have Scott back home.
