Day One with a singleton

Oh my, what a difference! We got up, she had breakfast then we baked cookies (ruined the batch, sent them to Murray's office where Andrew quickly claimed there's no such thing as bad cookies!) & banana bread, then we went swimming, then for lunch at McD's, to the bank, to a gift shop for a baby present, to the library to renew my books then to the mall to pick up pictures & Walmart of misc, and browsed a few other stores.... We were gone for hours & it was all easy peasy!

Lovey is totally soaking up the attention and hasn't had a single time out (knock on wood). She did get a little cranky when the swim was over and her eyes were stinging from the chlorine and it was 1:30 & hadn't had any lunch yet but other than that it's been a charm. She's soooo happy & content! I asked her at supper if she missed her sisters and she started to say yes but then changed it to "nope" LOL stinker!

I talked to the other 2 girls this morning & they both immediately said "I'm being a very good girl" and Mum said they really have been. They're probably having a blast up there but if they had their own blog we'd know for sure.... ; )))

Having one girl is fun as a temporary thing but I can't imagine it being like this all the time! Wouldn't it get boring after awhile???? I'd miss the hustle and bustle, the giggles and squeals (the multiple tantrums, not so much!) and all the activity. It is a lot easier to pick up after one kid though & get some housework done but I wouldn't trade my trio for a clean house!

The girls have been having a great time and they have each other to play with and to talk to so they're not wanting our attention as much as when we take a singleton.
I almost think it's easier with 2 instead of one now that there are no diapers involved. Of course Diane is doing all the work so you might want to get her opinion.
Wait till you see the necklaces that Grammie made for them. H&S love their's and they picked out a nice pendant for Lovey's.
