The moment I had been waiting for finally came on Saturday! My boys came back into town after two long weeks away!
I was so excited driving to the airport! In my mind I pictured an enthusiastic, open armed, running toddler screaming "momma" when he saw me. In reality, he didn't even notice I was there and when he did all he said was "hi". Go figure.
I blame it on all of the excitement of the plane ride. Surely that was it.
It was amazing to spend the weekend as a family, reunited.
We packed up the kids and headed to a good ol' fashion American picnic a la francais. Noah was excited.
Nathan was excited to eat some hotdogs, play in the pool and run around with "older" kids. Did I mention the hotdogs?
When did Nathan get so big, by the way. I feel like I blinked and now I have a little boy.
I absolutely love the American picnics. It is so amazing to have such a great community of expats, and so great to spend an afternoon speaking English and eating some good ol' Southern barbecue!
I am absent for the next few days please forgive me. I'm busy soaking up the terrible two's until the novelty wears off again.

Yay glad they made it home safely! Sounds like Noah did have a good time and you did great too, mama!
So glad that your wait is over. Enjoy the hugs!
Even when I used to visit Fred just for a few weeks, I was always happy to get home and speak English. It must be like a dream for you.

When I first saw the picture of Nathan in the ball cap I thought he looked so big as well! Glad they're back!
Yay, they're back! I've got the two while the husband is off for two weeks... Knowing you somehow survived when Noah was even tinier is helping me through it!
Hooray! So glad they're back :)

I know how you feel. Sometimes I drop Justin off in the morning and I feel like he comes back bigger!
JDaniel gave me a hug and then barely said anything after I came back from the Type A Conference! I guess our boys are just low key!
So glad that they're back and you're all together again! Enjoy it!
