The Waiting Game




Here we are three days after our scheduled departure date for London, and we are still in Utah! John's visa didn't get here in time so we had to reschedule our flights for this Saturday. The brilliant people working on his visa sent part of his application to NYC and the other portion to LA. They say he should get it Wednesday or Thursday, but I'm not holding my breath!

This past month has been a little stressful! Plans for London have gone from a six month to three month stay and now its looking more like a five week stay. There is a new law in the UK that would tax John's bonus up to 50% and to avoid paying the tax, Goldman wants John to do up to three 30 day stays.

Poor Eleanor wakes up every morning asking if we are going to London today. Hopefully this Saturday will be the day!

On the positive side, we have had a great morning. Eleanor woke up in a great mood (this does not happen too often!) and wanted me to take some photos of her crazy faces. Amelia got to enjoy a lot of tummy time. Yesterday I realized that Eleanor was rolling over at this age and decided I should probably start putting Amelia down a few times a day. I seriously could hold this baby all day!
