Stay-cation with the Aussies!

Our dear friends Nic, V & Mo are visiting from Australia now. Doug is off for a few days in the lull of the holidays post-Christmas. We've been keeping busy with now 3 active little boys in the house! It's so fun to be with these kindred spirits from around the globe.

Here's a quick look at the boys keeping busy...

Last night V and I went out to go winter clothes shopping for their son, Mo, and we left Doug and Nic with all the boys at dinner time. They actually did great as you can see with Tavin's look during his meal. He ate so much food, Doug was amazed! Happy little eater!
After a rough night for Mo and his parents, Nic & V suggested a DVD for the boys. Koen was more than thrilled to join in on that action. The boys got snuggly under a blanket and enjoyed an episode of Chuggington.
Mo got his first sledding experience today. Doug, Nic & Mo spent hours shopping for boots for Mo, finally after 9 stores they had success. They celebrated by going to Frick Park for a first-time sled ride. Mo was a big fan (although Nic said the first run was a little messy and he sprayed Mo in the face with the snow).
Tavin got some Daddy time tonight as I finished dinner preparations. As you can see, he loves his time with his Dad. Doug missed the boys after his errand day out, it was cute to see how excited Tavin was to spend some time with Douglas.
Koen has been enjoying the random extra tracks Doug got off of ebay for his Christmas present. The trains have been a great play option when Koen needs some downtime from entertaining guests. In general, the boys are doing awesome learning to play together and sharing with one another. It's fun to see the kids develop a relationship with a friend from across the world!

More Aussie adventure updates to come I'm sure!
