Lazy day

Not much to say today since we didn't do much. Ben was up much of the night because of a cough. He did seem to have a bit of troubled breathing as well. He also cried a lot (out of frustration, I suppose) and tried to wake Susanna several times, and cried more when I pulled him off her. I guess she is sleeping through it since she's worn out from all the walking I make her do!

So, we just relaxed all morning, and finally got ready to go out after lunch. We ended up going for a walk along the Thames Path that runs by our place, then leaving the path and taking a rather long way home. Ben fell asleep, as usual, and Susanna kept up well even though it wasn't "fun" at all.

By the time we got home, it was time for dinner, then a bit more play and reading before bed. No plans for tomorrow - maybe another train ride to Marlow to visit the playground there.

I have tried driving twice now, and its gone okay. I need to get a bit more practice before school starts next week, but I think I'll be okay. I will at least be able to get her to school and back, and Ben and I will just spend the days at our new house and walk anywhere we need to go. Right now we have a rental Chevy Captiva, which is a good-sized car compared to most we see on the roads, but its going okay. We don't know when we will get our keeper cars - hopefully soon but we'll see...
