Now we're all back on board it's been a nice week having everyone around the breakfast table again in the mornings. Adrian was straight back into a busy work week with a lot of extra hours this week and he was still falling asleep at 7:30pm trying to get his head back in the right time zone.
We had a very busy weekend with Adrian working all day Saturday while it was torrential rain outside all day with more flooding and land slips around Wellington so the boys and I headed to "Jungleramma" the big indoor playground with their friend Aeneas who was also driving his mother crazy inside in the rain. The boys had a great time and I was very pleased that they have now both mastered the ladder to get up to the giant slide by themselves which is a big relief from me having to carry them up again and again!!!! We had a nice visit from Jeremy in the afternoon and then Adrian arrived home in time for the banana cake that Jack and I had made while Tom was having an extra long nap.
Sunday morning wasn't raining but was very cold and grey so Adrian rugged the boys up and took them to the Zoo, they had a great morning as all the animals were out and close up including getting to see the giraffes being feed. The favourite seems to be the zebras but they have great imaginations telling me they saw elephants and hippos too even though there aren't any there...?! Jack asked Daddy if he could cuddle the monkey's as soon as he saw them, and the baboons were also a big hit although confusing as they were screaming, growling and nashing their teeth, Tom told them very seriously, “No monkey’s say oohh oohh, hee hee not growling”!
FUN WITH UNDERPANTS!!
This week the boys tried on some underpants to attempt to get used to them a little early, Jack loved his and ran around dancing like a nutter, Tom decided that it would be much more fun to try them all on...at once....he struggled to get every pair on and felt very pleased with himself!
