Kids at school, Mum and Dad working, we've certainly found a comfortable routine over the past month. Only one blog post for February was a bit slack, but there wasn't much to say.
After the first week at school Lincoln caught a nasty bacterial infection in his stomach, which meant he was sick almost every night and had a week off school. Mum had lots of fun collecting the bar stool sample... Carter also caught a small bug, but only missed one and a half days...
On returning to school, Linc had trouble settling in; it was only last Thursday that he finally didn't cry when dropped off; it was getting quite upsetting knowing that he really didn't want to go to school - sometimes it even made him feel a little ill - but anxiety can do that to you. He seems much better now though, so fingers crossed.
Carter has settled in really well; he is loving school and, as predicted, is having his 'individual' style of doing things constantly tested - he's a stubborn little fellow - it can be very frustrating.
Both boys have started cricket every Sunday morning; Linc loves it, but Carter only likes it when he is excelling at it - otherwise he cracks it...
We went to the Canberra show yesterday; they sting you $10 to park your car in a dusty paddock before you even get close, but that's progress for you... I'm sure it's going to a good cause... the highlight for Carter was the police display, and for Linc it was the motorbikes (although he was excited about seeing the cars, they turned out being too loud and very not fun!)... A couple of showbags later (Team Hot Wheels for Linc and Mister Maker for Carter) and everyone started getting a little tired (plus the crowds started to swell significantly) so we headed home.
Oh, and Dad sold his motorcycle.
