We are on our way up to London to see Vicky & Rich and baby Eminny (Emily!) I was at school with Vix,
now she and Rich are Evie's godparents. We saw quite a bit of Vix and Emily (who is actually only a couple of months younger than Sadie) when we lived in Sevenoaks, so I am very excited to see them.
We got up at 5 to get a 7 o'clock ferry. Our usual trick is to get the girls up last minute, dress and feed them on the ferry and then hope they catch up on sleep in the car. Today we have to wide awake girls! Sadie has stripped her shoes and socks, taken arms out of straps, chucked dollies on floor, thrown crayons into untraceable places and generally been a pain. I thought she'd sleep!! I am seriously considering us pulling over and putting Evie in the front and sitting with her as I am spending all my time twisted round with my arm fishing madly behind my seat trying to pick things up for her! And there is a constant whinge soundtrack!! Meanwhile Evie is 'reading' her reading book and colouring in, bless her heart. I put reading in inverted commas as without a mummy or daddy to point at the words she will 'read' the pictures and make up more interesting stories. Certainly 'the little bug climbed on his bed to moon' is more interesting than 'Bob is a bug.'
