Family visit

My parents just left after being here for 6 days. They surprised me and brought my sister Anna with them, along with her two babies, Callie and Levi.
Callie is by far the BEST baby ever. I have never ever seen such a content little baby. She is 3 months. She just eats and sleeps or coos. It was nice to spend an extended period of time with them. I had fun doing a photo shoot for her....



We did lots of running around to all the great places in Calgary. We ate lots of food and did little sleeping. My kids don't do well when they don't get 100% attention, so while I'm trying to be a good host, they would scrap it out and scream most of the day . My parents would help my sister with her sweet kids while I was calming the world wars between my crazy loud boys. Argh. They tried to keep smiling faces, but I really feel like they were happy to get in their van this morning and go home to their peaceful lives.

I'm sure it wasn't as bad as you thought - I know I'm always more sensitive about my crazy boys' behaviour :)

I need to get you to tell me how to do those cool Flickr groupings that you do!

Hey Sarah. We had an awesome visit with you and your "hounds". Sure, we were happy to come back home and settle into our routines again but we enjoyed ourselves at your place too. Don't feel bad about anything....we had fun! I'd do it again. Looking forward to seeing you at Roots and Blues.

I love the colours they are so sharp. I really like Annas eyes in that one on the left. Good job.

Hey sweetie! it was great to be there with you and share in your busy lives! We need to remember what it was like with little ones, and to get a perspective of what your days are filled with. The boys are too cute to miss out on! ! We love 'em lots. Glad we can spend time together this summer. Mom.
And yes - the photos you took are great - as ever! We need to send some printed ones on to P&R.
