It ain't what it used to be

We went to feed the ducks yesterday.
It was not how I remembered it.
As we scattered bread into the pond along came the cute little duckies...

And the swooping seagulls
And the pesky pidgeons.

It is quite unpleasant to be surrounded by birds. Takes me back to year ten English and Alfred Hitchcock.

Lucy wasn't fazed.
She just ate the bread.

vote for us?

to bed

We're thinking about beds in our house at the moment.
It's been taking a loooong time to get the little one to sleep lately. Like 2+ hours long.
Ugggh!

Anyway, its got us thinking tht maybe it's time for a bed upgrade?

Have you had two hour sleepy problems?
Did a change of scenery help/hinder?
What do you think of bunks vs beds?

shopaholic

Lucy and I go grocery shopping every week.
It's one of my favourite things to do.

I remember going shopping with my dad when I was little. I would ride in the trolley and we would pick out all the things we were going to buy.
As I got older, Dad would have me get a bag of apples or the best value packet of cheese.
It was a really great way to learn how to shop.

So now, I'm passing it all on to Lucy.
I give her the groceries and she drops them into the trolley behind her.
She does quality control on the grapes and drops mushrooms into the bag.
She requests lots of cheese and insists on dipping her hands into the ice that cushions fruit salad and freshly squeezed orange juice.
She loves a slice of banana bread for a treat if she has been good.

She smiles at all the people
but sometimes has a little meltdown.

When we get to the counter she loves to use my card and press all the buttons on the eftpos machine.
And when we have to go, she gets a bit sad.*

The best part of the trip is a ride on the escalator.
Again and again and again.
