Our Day

Our day started with taking Nathan to Pre-School, well actually it started with eating porridge and watching Handy Manny but anyway. At Pre-School Maia likes to crawl around while I'm putting Nathan's bag away etc. Today she crawled up to a little girl called Sophie, but Sophie didn't want to be friendly and told Maia to go away. Thats when big brother stepped in and very slowly and seriously looked Sophie in the eye and said.... "Don't you talk to my sister like that". Wow what a cool big brother!!!

We got home to do a bit of housework and got a visit from Aunty Lisa and Kael who came bearing Latte gifts, yay!! Kael and Maia are starting to play well together and don't much get the chance without the bigger siblings around, so it was cool to see how they interact when it's just the two of them.

Uncle Reid came around for the afternoon and babysat Maia while I went out and got my haircut, aaahh bliss. I was way overdue for one and felt like I had been hybernating for winter and turned into a yeti or something. Reid took a funny picture on his phone of Maia's facial expression which didn't leave her face the whole time he had her, if you could translate the expression into words it would be something like... "Who are you and where is my mother?" She didn't cry, she just looked at him funny. It probably wasn't helped by the fact she really needed her nappy changed and he wasn't really up for that.

On picking Nathan up from school I learnt that he crashed heads with another little boy while playing and took a while to be consoled and that he won a silver medal in the Pre-school olympics in a running race of some description. Choice!!
