Russ’ sister, Ruth was able to get a last minute, half price ticket to fly in from New Zealand and she jumped on the opportunity. She flew 14 hours, with her 20 month old Kaitlin, and while being 5 months pregnant. They stayed for a week and we had a really great time. It was our first time meeting Kaitlin. Rowan and Kaitlin are each other’s only cousins so it was really special to see them together. They are only 3 months apart…. and the babies in our bellies are only going to be 2 months apart!
We were pretty busy throughout the week: aquarium, pikes place, bellevue square, north bend outlets, lunch at my mom’s, and celebrating Russ’ 30th birthday.
We’re really going to miss them and wish they lived closer. Hopefully next time we’ll be able to go and visit in New Zealand!
Rowan LOVED having a little buddy around. He kept trying to give her cuddles. :)
Here are some photos from our time together. I wish there were more but we didn’t want to lug around our DSLR everywhere we went!
It was also pretty fun to hear all of the different words they use for every day items. Here are some of my favorites:
Diaper = Nappy
Binky= Dummy
Stroller= Pram
Bathroom= Loo
There are a lot more….. Would love for Rowan to have that cute little accent!!
