Together Again!


We all had a lovely time together in the little Union Pier house for a few days despite getting off to a rocky start. When we picked Madoka, Dave, and Sky up at the airport (three hours later than expected due to changes to a last minute change to their itinerary - who wouldn't want the added bonus of stopping in Detroit?), Delta had misplaced their luggage. They promised Dave that they would deliver it to the house around 8pm. When he called to check on it, they explained that they couldn't deliver to Michigan. After a round of phone calls and, "can I please speak with your supervisor," Delta had the luggage at the house at 8am the next morning.

Hanging together with the boys was slightly more challenging than the last time they were together at 6 months old - they were on different sleep schedules and had to learn to share the few toys that we brought. Sky made good use of the word "no" whereas Dexy resorted to pushing to express himself. Nevertheless there was lots of running, jumping, laughing, and successful sharing as well.

The house was fantastic with all the necessities and it was very tastefully furnished. It wasn't furnished for toddlers but we moved all the breakables off the coffee table and fed the boys on the counter or on the move. It all worked out really well.
