Two Peas in a Pod

The cousins were reunited last weekend at Nonny's house. Peevers was so excited to see Honey Babe that she crawled down an entire hallway triple speed, which was practically faster than I could walk it.

Banana Girl and Honey Babe will be here on Sunday for another week of Banana Girl bailing my ass out of a tight spot childcare-wise and me wallowing in the sweet blessing that is adult company on a daily basis.

I was alone, at home, with the kids all day today. There were some sweet and tender moments, but there was also some screaming and muttered curses. It's not that any given moment is so bad, it's just that there is no cavalry coming to rescue me all day. The endless stretch of inane dialogue, the need to color pictures for Gabe repetitively and to help Quin find her ponies and babies, again, and then stop everything for another nursing session when the kids wake up Peeves and then clean up the next mess, as so on, and so on, gets to be pretty daunting by mid-afternoon.

But those two girly baby cousins are awfully cute aren't they?

(T minus two days until Banana Girl gets here)
