The royal grandparents aside from allowing their sick daughter in law to sleep also bonded with their grandchildren and brought them mountains of presents. The Princess was delighted to have them here and the boys were fed (which is really the height of their demands at the moment).

I am gratified that my parents-in-law seem to enjoy my blog (hi guys). My father in
law, the captain of industy, pointed out that I dont seem to update when we have
people staying. I said well, I suppose that Im busy doing other things. Yes, said he I notice that you didn’t blog at all while your mother was over. Well, that might have been because I was in the hospital after having given birth.
