Today was very frustrating for both myself and Chris. Neither of us made it to church as we had plans to go up North to Bedford. Chris unfortunately got called into work and hoped it would only take an hour or two. Seven plus hours later he finally got home. Needless to say, I was not in a good mood. So we grabbed our stuff and went to TGI Fridays for dinner. That was good at least as I have been wanting to go here since we saw it. A "taste of home" so to say. As soon as we got in the car and started driving, Makenna, was saying "food, food". As Chris says, at least now, we can understand her (usually).
We were nervous about Makenna and how she would be but she was actually very good. She had a balloon to play with which made her very happy. Plus some crayons and pencils to write with that they gave her. The problem came when it was time to eat. She didn't want the pasta and sauce that I ordered (even though at home she kept saying "fetti, fetti"). So she ate Garlic Bread. Am I a bad mom for just letting her eat bread and water? I hope not. And I certainly hope this is not a "hint" of things to come in a future jail sentence.
So off we were again and from the backseat we here "food, food". Sorry kid, you had your chance. We finally made it to Bedford and checked into our hotel. The first room we had, was not what we expected. It had a small bed on the floor for Makenna, but no working fan, and no 'fridge like we were told we would have. So Chris went back and checked with the front desk and sure enough, they had given us the wrong room. Unfortunately for them I had already changed and thrown away Makenna's diaper in the room.
Our next room was a bit bigger and had what we expected. They porter went and got a pack-n-play crib for Makenna to sleep in. She surprisingly, did well with that too. She kept standing up in it on and off but finally settled down. So hopefully tomorrow we'll be able to see some of this area of England.
