week 301 / week 173

Despite loads of family time this week, it’s been a bit of a photo drought. Perhaps we’ve been letting them play more screens than usual, and more crafting activities, which are less interesting to photograph.

We had a lot of family time over the weekend, including trips to a couple of park. When it was quiet, Mum let Puff run up the slide, with missed success, as you can see/hear in the video.

Huff and Dad went to the Botanic gardens to give Mum a chance to sleep when she wasn’t feeling well. We had a lovely picnic, and watched the ducks wrestle, and even checked how cold the water in the pond was.

We were surprised at how well Huff took to this play equipment: it involved some moving her centre of balance around so she could spin.

A visit to Fagan Park (we’d never been before) was a chance to look around at a lot of types of gardens, and also have the kids run around and burn off some energy. It must have worked: the kids both slept in the car afterwards!

We also managed to fit in a visit to Doc, and a visit to see Uncle M and O, Dad preached at church, and there was the usual work, end of school term, and lots of craft being made. We also had a post-preaching baby lunch with E, uncle J, aunty C, and Grandragon, and then Dad walked home with Huff and Puff, who found it a little too far to travel, but managed to get a second wind at the critical moment.
