My Baby is home :-)

Little Miss Sensible arrived home for a visit today :-) She met Mr Messy at the train station and he brought her home while me and Little Prince were at a schoolfriend's birthday party. Its LOVELY to see her again, although I think we are all finding it a bit strange to have her here - nice strange!!!

Little Prince was very excited when he came out of school, about going to the party. But by the time we had got home he was complaining of a sore hip (!?!?) and spent a lot of time on the toilet (nerves??). He kept checking that I would be staying with him for the party, and needed a lot of cuddling on my knee. Once we were picked up by his girlfriend and her mum, he seemed very quiet and listless. At one point in the car journey I thought he was going to be sick he went so pale!! Luckily we were almost at the party venue (Wacky Warehouse type place) and he perked up once he saw all his friends and could play on the slides and things. At first he kept coming over to me and needing a hug, but after a few minutes he was totally confident and happy. He did manage to lose one sock, even after he and girlfriend searched it was nowhere to be found!! Me and girlfriends mum had a lovely (quiet lol) dinner in the adult restaurant, while the birthday child's parents supervised all the kids hehehe.

We hadn't told him Little Miss Sensible was coming home, so when he walked in and she appeared he was stunned for a second and then gave her a HUGE hug and demanded to know how she had got here! He insisted that she took him to bed, which I think she was very happy about as she was very very worried that he would be rejecting and distant with her (punishing her for leaving him). Hopefully he will carry on treating her as normal, and won't be too upset when she goes back to university on Sunday. That is the part I'm dreading :-( But I'm pushing that to the back of my mind and just trying to enjoy her being here while she is here :-)
