Nanny Carol and Pops visited us for a week in October 2011. They were so desperate to see you and were upset anytime they saw a video or picture of you because they missed you so much. Their trip cane by so quickly and me and daddy were really looking forward to spending some time with them and for them to see how much you had grown! You were now just under 5 months old and the last time they saw you in person, you were a tiny 6 weeks old! You had really grown into such a giggly, happy, little boy.
Nanny Carol and Pops got to Kuwait late on the Saturday night and Nanny Carol grabbed you from my arms as soon as she saw us. She couldn't believe how much bigger you were, you looked massive next to her! They both couldn't stop cuddling and touching you, you could tell how happy they were to be back with you.
We stayed up for a little that night, and the next night we went to the Avenues and Ruby Tuesday's for dinner. Nanny Carol and Pops were giving you loads of attention and you were loving it! Unfortunately during their stay, me and daddy were in work so Nanny Carol and Pops came over to our apartment during the day and spent lots of time with you. They both kept saying how good you were, as they were worried that you would be a little strange with them as you hadn't seen them for 3 months, but no, you were your smiley self :)
On the Thursday night, Nanny Carol and Pops babysat you all night whilst mummy and daddy went for a meal and a night in a hotel. Nanny Carol loved getting up in the night with you, giving you a bottle and cuddles. She said you did snore very loudly though!!
Friday, the day Nanny Carol and Pops were leaving, quickly came by. Their flight wasn't until late that night so we went to Marina Crescent for our usual Pizza Express lunch and a little walk near the sea. You felt sand for the first time that day. We took off your shoes and let you stand up on the beach and sat you down so you could feel it with your little hands. You couldn't stop smiling :) After that, we took a trip to the Avenues so Nanny Carol and Pops could buy you your 'big' Christmas present as it would be too heavy to bring back on the plane with us in January. They got you a bouncer activity gym. Daddy put it together whilst Pops put up our new blind up for the bedroom. You loved playing in it and looking at yourself in the mirror.
The trip to the airport was so sad like last time. We said our teary goodbyes and waved Nanny Carol and Pops off. I was really sad for a few days as the week flew by too quickly and I really enjoyed having them here. I think you really missed all their cuddles and playing with Pops.
