Week 9

So here we are in Week 9. Summer has officially ended, and it feels like it's autumn already with the miserable dreary weather and cooler temps.  I know we desperately need the rain, but I miss the sunshine already!  Dylan absolutely loves being outside in the backyard, even the carers from Daycare have commented on how much he enjoys it.  So after going a bit crazy from keeping him indoors most of the day yesterday we decided to venture out this morning in between showers.  Dylan was still in his jammies, which are too big so I rolled up the pants and put a peg on the back to keep his pants up attached to the top!  First thing he does the minute he's outside, run over to a puddle and stick his hands in!  I'm thinking gumboots and a raincoat might be required if this rain keeps up - for both Dylan and I!

Linking up with Jodi and Project 52.

I'm thinking these ones would be perfect for me. If anyone wants to buy them for me - go right ahead!

    I'm stealing your peg idea :)
    I assume that gum boots and rain coats will be a must in Auckland too, better get some for Lucas...

      Steal away Kim!! :-)
      I hope you have better luck finding a raincoat and gumboots in Lucas' size cos I haven't seen any here for Dylan yet. Maybe it's more a winter thing??

Week 34 Unfortunately things fell apart during the week.  I was hoping that we were all on the mend but it quickly became apparent that we weren't, and we went downhill quickly.  There's been more whinging and moaning and sleepless nights and day naps and the tissues... boxes and boxes of tissues.  It's just no fun.  When the sleepless nights turn into cranky days, you just lose your shit sometimes. You yell. You yell at anyone who's there. You say things I'm sure you wouldn't normally say if you were well.  And decisions, oh my god, why is it so friggin hard to make a decision??? Like what should we have for dinner? Or should I put that other load of washing on or will it piss down with rain?? This week I've really felt quite isolated.  On my own little sick island where nobody wants to go.  Some days you just wish you had that magic fairy that would come and get your shit done for you.  I've been so lethargic this week that makes it seem everything

I took these shots a few weeks ago and have been meaning to post some but I just never seem to get around to it.  These were taken one evening straight after Dylan's bath when he clearly had had too much energy!  He ran off from his room before we could get a nappy on him, let alone some pyjamas.  He grabbed his bouncing bull "Brutus" and hopped away giggling and having a great time.  I just love his wet curly hair bouncing up and down!!

Overall not a bad week here. We've had a few outings, been on some walks and a 4th birthday party.  Its been a mostly wet weekend, and the perfect opportunity for cuddles on the lounge with my boys, and a little me time.  I've got the best excuse for some quiet days at home.  Hubby bought me (or was instructed to buy me) the box set of the Offspring TV show on DVD.  I love it! I've gone back to the beginning to watch the early years and see the episodes I missed out on, and to refresh my memory on the ones I saw.  So looking forward to the new season starting in a few weeks! Tristan has been pretty good this past week.  Napping has been reasonable and night times are ok.  He had a few feeding strikes, but I knew he wouldn't starve himself, so I haven't been too worried.  This past week he hit 12 weeks old and I'm noticing his size 000 clothes getting a bit tighter.  I'm sure by this age Dylan was barely into 000!  Tristan has been smiling so much, and I
