week 340 / week 212

There was a bit of a face-painting theme this week. Puff had a school event – Pirate Day – this week, and so Huff wanted to have her face painted. She decided she wanted to be Bottomley Potts from the Hairy Maclary series.

She wasn’t a fan of the white hairspray, and this face was a totally random capture, but she looks a bit worldly wise here.

Puff on the other hand wanted to be a parrot for pirate day. Mum did a great job on the face paint, and it was topped off with green hairspray.

Grandragon worked hard on the costume, so he had a stack of feathers stitched onto a hooded poncho.

Later in the week, Huff wanted her face painted again. This time it was flowers and the sun behind a cloud.

Huff wasn’t feeling well over the weekend, so while she said home and rested with Mum, Dad and Puff went out to have pizza for dinner. It was great to spend some time chatting with him on a range of topics (including his current game obsession – Duck Life 3, and some mixed numeral fractions among other things).

The next night, unexpectedly, Huff was still feeling a bit sick, so Puff and Dad went out again. It made the following night a bit odd when Dad was back to having lunch after the kids had gone to bed.

Huff was feeling better again by Monday, but we didn’t want to risk her getting her preschool friends sick, so she had the day home with Mum. She decided that making marshmallows for her (and Puff’s) friends for Easter would be fun. Here she is decorating them.

Looking forward to a pleasant Easter with the family – see you next week!
