Entry Out of the Blue

It's been awhile. Writing a blog entry that is. It has been a very wet, dreary and long winter. The wet weekends have been ever so kindly queueing themselves back to back. That makes it hard to get outside and take decent photo's - hence nothing to really interesting to blog about.

This weekend, despite the weather forecast predictions, it was fine. Finally. We took the kids down to the water front for some air and exercise while we ran after them. 


Amelia has developed her scooting speed to something quite respectable now. So on wide open spaces like the Wellington water front she leaves wide open spaces behind her parents.

Below is a shot of Lucy enjoying some mid winter sun on the back lawn. She confidently navigates her way out of the back door and up the rear garden steps onto the lawn now.  So the back lawn is her oyster, if a little muddy currently.

Amelia was in prize possession of her school class teddy bear this weekend.  This is massive kudos for a five year old. So we spent considerable part of the weekend traveling with this promiscuous teddy bear like some abducted garden gnome on a student prank.

Ted get's some miles it would seem. And he went every where while requiring constant photo's as his weekend needed to be document for a school report. By Monday. Like a boring swank film star.  And just like a swank film star he seemed to have some designs on Amelia's other teddy bear, Pink. There is something sinister in Ted's eye and I'll leave it up to the reader to decide upon poor young Pink's reaction.
