I was slightly worried as Oliver didn't quite recall Lucas and Linnea straight away when we told him about their visit. He had his photo albums out and re-checked what they looked like and what they did together in Brunei etc :( I guess 4 years old's memory is not that good ha?
We tried to put our boys in bed before they arrived on Wednesday night as it was way past their bedtime. Well... not a chance, they were all so excited. As soon as they walked in Oliver knew exactly who they were, with a big smile on his face :)
The next morning Lucas came along with me to get Oliver from his kindy:
As Nathan wasn't due in until late that night and Matthew had to work till 5ish, we decided to chill out by the pool downstairs. The kids had a ball! Endlessly jumping in the pool and giggling away all afternoon. It was so nice to watch them all together playing again. Luca of course was a little baby last time but this time he is full of personality and could communicate properly. I think both Lucas and Linnea liked him even more!
Matthew got stuck at work for an extra hour but he kindly (or no choice!? sorry honey...) let Boel and I go to late night shopping at Parkway Parade. We had just under 3 hours to shop but we managed to cover most of the shops we wanted to go in and even came home with a few things.
Funny enough since I moved to Singapore I don't buy as much. I guess things are always there if we need to get so you tend to leave it for next time you visit the shops etc. BUT, I always manage to buy things I don't really need when I am shopping with Boel. I totally blame her! She somehow puts me into this buying-mode.
I bought an ESPRI bag which will be my elegant-looking-mummy bag, and a quite nice short dress which I don't really have an occasion to wear yet.
Not long after we got home Nathan arrived and we enjoyed catching up with some beer and wine until late (well very late!) - just like we used to in Brunei.
