Sissy and Catherine

My sister and Catherine came to visit us last week.  It was a massive effort by both of them.  It was Catherine's first ever flight, and was very brave of Sam to bear it alone.  The week flew by but it was a lot of fun, the best part was seeing Charlie and Catherine together.  I can't wait till Cate is a little bit older and they can really play together.  We would sometimes see Charlie go up and kiss Catherine without being asked to.  It was just so sweet.  He did get jealous a few times, but for the most part was very kind with "the baby", as her called her. We stayed pretty busy all week, Sam got a tour of every furniture shop in Singapore.  I am fully consumed with trying to find pieces to fill our new apartment that we move into in a few weeks.  It was helpful having her input along the way. We also had lots of play time with the kids, a few fun lunches and dinners out, we cooked a lot and Sam got to meet a few of my friends. I wish we had more time together. We miss them already.

Me and Catherine on their first morning here!
 An attempt at a group shot, this was the best we could get.
 While Charlie napped, we took Cate to lunch at Sushi Tei.


 They got to bathe together every night, Charlie would get a little over excited and splash a little too much for Cate.
 Showing Catherine his cars.

 We took them to the pool many times!  Looks like Catherine is just as much of a water baby as Charlie is.  Both following in their mommy's footsteps.




 A few photos on the balcony before heading to a tapas dinner at Sabio.

 We sent Michael some photos of our "political faces"
 And we got churros for dessert!!!  Donuts for dessert, yes please.
 At Kith for a quick coffee after a long walk.

 Lunch at Real Foods while Charlie was in school.
 Back at the pool, she is SO cute.
 I have plans to open a baby gym if we ever move to California.  I told Sam about where I got the idea, and we decided to go with the kids so she could see what it was all about.

 Lunch at the Botanic Gardens.
 And our last morning together right before taking them to the airport.
 Can't wait till we see them again!  Love you guys.
