Sunday - Bye Bye LMS

Sunday dawned bright and early, due to Little Prince getting up at 4.45am!!! He came in bed with me and Mr Messy until around 8am and then we gave up and got up!! We couldn't stand the wriggling and complaints of not being tired and sleeping was boring any longer lol.

My Baby Bro and his partner came round to visit on their way home from partner's parent's house, and it was lovely to see them both. We don't get to see much of each other as we live a long way apart, and they are both working full time - so its great when we do actually get time together :-) I know I tease you about still being my annoying Baby Bro (despite the fact that you've towered over me for years lol) but I do like seeing you both really :-)

Sadly it was LMS's last day at home, as she has lectures on Monday and has to be back at university. We had compromised on the return journey rather than Mr Messy driving her all the way back there, he took her to a train station roughly half way back. Drama Teen was supposed to be going with them in the car, but decided at the last minute she hated long car journeys and didn't want to go. I decided that me and Little Prince would go instead, so I got to spend a little extra time with LMS before she went. Little Prince was tired and grumpy in the car (probably due to his early morning!!!) and fell asleep just before we stopped to eat - typical!!! He messed about with his food and didn't really want to eat much, but sobbed when we said we had to go or LMS would miss her train. He was sad again at the train station when he had to say goodbye to LMS, as were me and her dad :-(

On the way home we called in at Mr Messy's mother's house for a cup of tea and chat. Little Prince was even more tired and even more grumpy, so he spent the whole time telling us he wanted to go home and he didn't want anything to eat. Well apart from the left over Christmas choccies Nana gave him lol. When we finally set off again he was asleep in moments and slept the whole way home, he hardly even stirred when I took him off to bed lol.

It was good to come over and see you all. I wasn't expecting to see LMS I thought she would have been off traveling back to uni when we arrived.
I know we should do it more often but it's hard to do after a weekend of dealing with the other family commitments over that way, we normally just want to get home and rest!

Hi Baby Bro,

Glad you enjoyed your vist too :-) We've heard from LMS and she's safely back at uni now, and cursing her timetable!! Last term was fairly noddy sort of work, but this term they're being dropped into the deep end and the work is MUCH harder!! I'm sure she'll cope though :-)

Don't worry I know you and partner have a lot of family commitments (and full time jobs). Its just nice to get together when we can :-)
Take care
Love
Janet
