Well, technically only one of those boys is mine, but they're both adorable, aren't they?
My sister- and brother-in-law, with their two little boys in tow (that's the younger one above, and the older one at the bottom), came to town for a few days last week, and stayed at our place. It was lovely. And chaotic. And kind of fly-by-seat-of-pants. I've discovered that leaving the house with two children happens in stages — you start at the back of the house and you slowly gather everything with you at each stage. Kitchen, dining room, living room, door. It's kind of like a military campaign, but with diapers and little toy cars. (The older nephew has a thing for cars. And also Cars.)
They were in town for a family wedding (Pd's side, obviously). We went to the playground in between the ceremony and the reception, while the wedding party were taking their pictures; we don't go to the playground in formalwear. Usually.
Things that I have discovered that we don't really have enough of (at least, in terms of a family of four adults and two kids): sleep, space, dishes, and bathrooms.
