week 351 / week 223

Busy week. Mum had a last-minute chance to do something fun, and so Dad had the chance to take the kids for swimming lessons. Puff is getting ever stronger at his swimming, floating along and wanting to show off his backstroke.

Huff was full of beans having a babycino with Mum the next day.

On the weekend we went to a party for a friend’s combined birthday. Huff had a great time playing in a range of different contexts with lots of different kids. She doesn’t use the term “friends” for everyone she plays with, but even if she’s not prepared to make that commitment, she happily plays with other kids in a range of different games.

Puff had his wheelie shoes with him, and was (when he wasn’t playing ball games with a bunch of different kids) having fun walking across rocky terrain.

The party had a piñata for the kids to try and break. Huff was enthusiastic at trying to open it up. Once it had broken, the kids swarmed on enough candy to last them (we hope) a few weeks.

The kids had a chance to play with their cousin at the party, too!

The next day, Dad had a chance to walk to church with Puff (no photos taken), and in the afternoon, the kids went to a play centre with their Mum and grandmother, while Dad stayed back to do some work, and some long-neglected household chores.

Huff’s latest obsession is serving tiny cups of turkish apple tea. She is super excited to bring people these cups, and then offer top-ups.

Puff is getting more and more impressive with his wheelie skills, and his ability to solve different puzzles.
