Trip to Crystal Mountain

After Faith's afternoons at kindy this week she's been getting really tired. On her second day I let her watch Ice Age 2 knowing that she would fall asleep. Sure enough after about 10 minutes she snuggled in next to me on the couch so I made a little bed for her and went to the kitchen to bake some choc chippies. I had assumed that Ella would pull on my apron strings the whole time, but she actually entertained herself for the whole time with her 'baby'.

She toddled off to her room and found her pony baby and then perched herself on the chair next to me to wrap it and give it cuddles.

Ella went to get a nappy for bubba and struggled around with it before yelling out 'Mum....Help'

When I demanded an explanation for how a drawer of clothes got emptied on her floor, Ella just looked up and me with a blank look on her face and said 'Messy'. Yeah, good one!

Faith knocked out after 2 busy afternoons of kindy play

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last night we had the Takapuna Youth over to our place for pizza, chips and treats. We used to have about 18/20 of them at a time over to our flat, so it seemed so nice and spacious this time with the deck and bigger lounge. Was really fun to see them all. This is Faith and Ella sitting with Dallan, one of their besties.

We spent the afternoon at Crystal Mountain which is just down the road from our house, literally 2 minutes away. Over-priced for that they have, but we did do a couple of cool things.

This is what Faith thought about the roller coaster, a big thumbs up. Mum couldn't go on it cause she's pregnant, and Ella was about 2 cm too short :(

Patting the rabbits in the barn. Faith was quite good about it but wouldn't do it without Dad

This is Ella being happy at a very grumpy moment and braving a 'finger pat'

Waiting for the 'go slow' train around the park.

Faith enjoyed the vertical bungy thank goodness. I'd previously waited in the line for about 20 minutes with Ella only to have her completely melt down and go psycho when I put her on.
