week 296 / week 168

A sad week this week with Mum attending a funeral for a friend and an Aunt in hospital for most of the week. We managed to fit in a few happy things as well. Mum and Huff visited and old friend and a new friend respectively.

We thought that it wasn’t going to help to have the kids attend the funeral, so Dad spent the day looking after the kids. There was the school run, Huff’s Kindermusik class, a trip to the library, some time at the park, but we managed to fit in a quick coffee break.

Friday night after work we went out for dinner – we were hoping for a Japanese restaurant, but ended up having some delicious pizza instead. Afterwards, we took the kids to Enmore for Gelato. Huff was dancing to the music there, which was very cute.

Saturday we had breakfast together then went down to Wollongong so Mum could visit Aunty C. Dad took the kids out for a run around in the park, then up and down a big hill. It should be noted that she wasn’t a  fan of the static electricity zaps from the playground in Wollongong, refusing to go back on the slide after a while.

They were very resilient, but were soon asleep in the car.

The next day, after a big week of late nights, Dad had a rest at home while Mum took the kids back for another visit. It ended up being another time of playing the screens.

Huff is building up her personality and confidence – she’s learning how to jump, and even play on a trampoline: not sure quite what happened to her hair, though.
