First it was Kai's party & her birthday dinner with Bumpa, then Nana arrived for a week and made our lives gloriously easy by taking care of us AND our house. Our freezer is stocked with homemade food & our house is (okay, was) clean like never before.
Last week Jason & Maho arrived for their 2nd wedding on Oct.13 and Auntie Peggy stayed with us. Once again we were all spoiled as Peggy took care of everything around the house & helped me endlessly at the wedding. It turned out beautifully & after a few weeks of chaos and worry leading up to the ceremony, it was a great relief to see it all come together so beautifully.
Now we are looking forward to Grandma Sue's visit next week. The kids are brushing up on their manners - as both are just a little concerned to find out she is the inventor of the "thumping". I'm excitedly anticipating a week of good behaviour.
Mara had her 5 week check-up on Monday & it is evident we've got another rugby player in the making. She is almost 11 pounds and is just 21 inches long. She is two pounds heavier and 2 inches shorter than Kai was at 5 weeks! Oh boy.
Another portrait by Drew. Momma & Mara @ 3 weeks.So much for being a Spaceman Ballerina - this kid has a ready-made career.
