So sorry for the lack of blogging over the past couple of weeks! Thanks for staying with me :) We moved back into our house in St Neots on Valentine's Day. It was still a bit of a construction zone, but the ceilings had been re-plastered and the carpets installed (although some incorrectly, which the landlord says will be fixed). After we moved in, there were a couple of "work days" when friends of the landlord came in to seal and paint the ceilings, and the landlord used a carpet cleaner on the upstairs rugs. It looks better, especially now that we have our furniture in! On the days when Charlotte and I weren't hanging around the house with the work crew, we did a couple of fun things.
The library at Alconbury has a program once a month where they bring a dog or two in for the children. In theory, the kids are supposed to read to the dog, but when we were visiting the dog was mostly being petted. "Abby" belongs to a family who used to be in the military & stationed at Alconbury, but now are living in the area after retiring from the military. Charlotte was pretty enthralled with the "wuuh!" [dog] and gave her a few pats. She also liked seeing the other kids but was trying to steal things from their backpacks so we didn't stay long.
We (Charlotte, Paul, & I) also took a walk into St Neots on an overcast day. This is the view from the bridge over the river just our side of town. We explored briefly and found where the library and a few other shops/restaurants are located.
Hanging out with Daddy in new jammies that Grandmom brought with her from New Hampshire! [My mom visited us for a week over her winter vacation, more on this in another post!]
