Rain Rain Rain

When it rains they say it pours certainly has today. The boys were afraid I would flood the house just by opening the window. In fact I, the curtains, the carpet and the toys did get rather wet. But I just felt today I couldn't give in to the rain. It wins everyday. We constantly run for cover so when I just wanted a little air I did battle. Mother nature always wins. Lesson learned.
One of my best friends just had Mother nature pull a fast one on her. She went for a routine ultrasound scan to see heart beat and low and behold - identical twins! She is one in 250 births. Always the unexpected. Now I am terrified of going for my scan I am not sure I could handle my sixth and seventh child at once!

Bigger boys

Maxim and Lex love this climbing web thing but note those lovely clouds behind them!

Irish twins

Eoin and Zoë in blackrock park swings. They both love a picnic in the park even if we have to hide from the rain showers in the train station - such is summer in Dublin.

Paris Fashion Week

We saw the Damir Doma Fashion walk in Le Palais de Tokyo in Paris. It was so Cool.
We cycled around Paris at sunset and danced all night at the Bagatelle.

Sunshine


It was so good to have a few days of sun in Santa Barbara. Zoë got her first swimsuit and went swimming with her buddy Marshall. I had a wonderful time - good food, good company and warm weather a perfect combination.
