Shiri's Visit - Dec 2013

So fun to have Shirin come for a visit on her way to Sally's wedding.  I'm afraid I missed the chance of photos with her and the kids, but the photos are from her time here, so they will have to do.  We had a pretty leisurely visit with just a couple of excursions to town, one for her haircut, and one with the kids (may have been a mistake!).  Otherwise we looked at a lot of wedding dresses, chatted, ate, played with the kids and did some yoga!  She was such a good sport and on the day she arrived (delayed by a cancelled flight and arriving by train in the end), she still made it out to a dinner we had planned to celebrate my birthday.  And not just a quick bite - I mean a 10 person meal which went till 11pm!

She brought the kids some adorable towels - an owl for Eowyn and a lion for Liam.  They spent about 20 mins dashing around the house in them!

 "Bust up" is a common occurrence in our house.  Shirin got to witness it first hand.  My ribs have not been the same since my 15kg children keep jumping on them!
Eowyn likes to bounce on me and then say: are you ok? followed by a kiss
 At least the perks are lots of cuddles and love!
Snuggle fix!
 James does the daring feats, I stick to more moderate adventures!

 There was a phase where bathtime wasn't complete without goggles.  Eowyn loved to try on Liam's goggles too, though they weren't quite the right size for her.
