London for the weekend

Nice Knockers!

We left the kids with a friend and went down to London for the weekend to meet up with M's sister and brother-in-law. I took lots of pics of the British Museum, us around london (that pic is of me at a BBC building), and some Parkour traceurs practicing their stairwell jumps and flips. We walked a ton but had a lot of fun, ending with dinner in Chinatown, where I unexpectedly saw a restaurant I recognized from the song "Werewolves of London". Good times all around.

Congrats to H on her very first lost tooth! It happened while she was eating and they never found the tooth, so we assume it got swallowed. When I told her that the tooth fairy might not be able to give her any money if there wasn't a tooth to be collected, she didn't miss a beat - "Daddy, mommy took PICTURES. So the tooth fairy will KNOW I'm missing a tooth from the PICTURES". Then she went to bed really early because "You have to be asleep when the tooth fairy comes so I'm going upstairs to go to sleep!" All this in spite of the fact that she knows the tooth fairy is really mom & dad anyway. So she got 2 1£ coins (about $4), and today she bought a new princess activity book with it.
