Whew!

What a whirlwind week. After I last posted, I headed to NY for the Book Expo. I had a great time in NY learning about new books, collecting a few review copies, seeing some of my fellow book bloggers, and just generally soaking in BEA. I also spoke at a social media conference on Thursday and staffed another panel the day before, so it was a work trip as well.

On Friday, I headed up to Providence for my 20th reunion. Daddy, who had gone to Pakistan on Wednesday, returned late Friday night and came to Providence the next day. I had a blast seeing old friends. We stayed in the VERY noisy dorms, and didn't get much sleep because of people screaming and partying late into the night. But it was all worth it.

The girls had a great few days here with Imogene. On Saturday they went to ballet with Grandma Sandy, and they had a playdate in the afternoon with their friend Emily. Imogene did a great job holding down the fort.

Today we had our first swim day of the season at the Bethesda pool. The girls saw some friends there and had a lot of fun. Then to Potomac Pizza and Giffords, and home to bed.

I will do a "By the Numbers" post tomorrow. A asked me to include something on the blog today. She said that she had hurt herself somewhere and Daddy wanted to kiss it to make it better, and she said no. He then made a sad, puppy-eyed face at her. She said, "That puppy-eyed face won't do anything!"
