The weekend

We've...

Had visitors - interesting to note both kids responding differently (more maturely?) to a wee active almost 2yr old who they haven't seen for over a month. I noticed Nathan being tolerant and I noticed Danielle not screeching at being shoved and having toys taken off her - she's become more positively assertive and less fearful.

Nathan had a birthday party to attend on Saturday, so we dropped him off and Danielle and I went down to the mall and had a fluffy and a muffin together and bought an Insect book for Nathan's birthday in a few weeks.

The kids have played in the sandpit and made huge messes.

Plenty of reading books together.

Pitching in around the house with tidying and cleaning.

Nathan went down to the BMX track with Simon this afternoon and had a blast.

The kids had many games they initiated which involved rescuing Danielle's baby which was stolen during the night (?), dolls house play, a little playing outside (but not the greatest weather), lego, drawing, more "Magic Tree House" travels, DVD and video watching...
