Our 1st visitor to Doha

Feb started with a challenge and ended with a blast!

Crappy weather....everyone was very feeling very ill esp me, a whole week of being on the bed and struggling to manage the kids and everything else, alas i decided ok its time...this is not the usual flu bug, its something else...its a 'gut bug' the Dr said a commom bug going around DOha this time of the year....nausea, vomiting, suffication, loose stool..the works. After a painless

injection in the buttocks ( the nurse was really good i didnt feel a thing!!!) and a good nite

sleep...im good again and then as things started to get better and email from marie in Jeddah, they are coming here!!! wooootttttt....i of course get supper excited and the kids are over the moon. 1st visitor in Doha.The screaming started from the airport and lasted for a week....bubbles was late to school for most days last week and baby lulu was very happy that there was another baby younger then her...so she gets to play big sister to Hamzah. Hamzah is mashallah the cutest baby and very popular.

(A week with the Al-Ayed's)

We took them around Doha, Souq Wakif, the Islamic Museum, Aspire park, shopping spree in Villagio, various of our fav food joints, Katara Culture Village, The Pearl and ride on the dhow

and ASD for the Friendship festival where i lost the car keys on the field...thank god for the P.A system and good samaritan it was found...silly me.

It was a busy week but very good indeed....we really enjoyed their company of course it would have been better if the baba Meshary came earlier but a day is better then nothing :).

They left yesterday and sob...sob...sob. I miss them already, this morning was less drama.I didnt mind if the drama lasted for a little longer to be honest, it was really nice to have them around.

To the Al-Ayed family....we miss you dearly and we hope to see you soon!!!!
