What a rainy week! Lots of time indoors, and some extra screen time, and – once the rains finally stopped – a very excited little girl looking for puddles to jump in with her gumboots.
Her old umbrella was a casualty of poor construction so now she’s the proud owner of this bundle of dots.
We’ve been eating at home a bit more often; it’s even heading into dressing gown weather.
Friday night we went out to a night markets, where the kids luxuriated sitting on a concrete step for dinner (just out of frame was a weber filled with hot coals that gave us a few anxious moments).
We went straight from the relatively late Friday night to get up early for the Anzac dawn service. Puff had had his school Anzac service the day before, and was able to say “lest we forget” along with the assembled crowd, which was a little parenting milestone.
Later in the day we had an Italian pizza for lunch; the kids weren’t feeling very adventurous, so they had the cheese pizza half, but they really enjoyed it.
Huff fell asleep when we were driving, but Puff managed to stay awake for the whole day, with some judicious use of books to stay awake.
Continuing in the winter clothes pattern, we had Huff wearing this poncho to church on Sunday. After having a couple of weeks off, she was a bit unsure about going to Sunday School, but we persuaded her, and she was happy enough once it started.
Sunday night dinner was a bit low-key, with Dad steaming some prawn dumplings, and the kids pretty keen to watch some iView.
See you next week!
