Documenting Delight: day three hundred and eight {sick and upset}

This morning three of us woke up with colds (Lach seems to has escaped so far). Being Harper’s daycare day this meant she had to stay home. The flow on effect of this was that Finn missed on his one on one time with me. Finn wailed when I told him of the change of plans. Wailed and wailed. Finn loves his little sister but he equally loves it when he can play independently within a quiet home, while getting little pockets of uninterrupted Mummy time. That chance comes around one a week and I am pretty sure he patiently counts down the days.

Today’s photo is far from inspired but it is all that I could muster. Here’s to healthier days ahead….and better photographs.

Documenting Delight: Day ninety eight

We stopped over in Wollongong last night, after our day in Sydney yesterday. This morning this mumma was in need of a hefty dose of caffeine so I took the kids for a walk to the Plaza. As we were waiting for my coffee Finn noticed that a team of ladies were setting up a petting zoo outside the shops. Is there anything greater than unexpected and free toddler entertainment? I don’t think so. Finn gripped the gate of the petting zoo, calling out to the animals (Piggy, can you say ‘Oink’?) and alerting the petty zoo workers when the food and water for the animals was running low.

Meanwhile our other animal lover wasn’t so keen. Harper kept calling out “up, up” and snuggling in tight to her Daddy once she was picked up. It was then that we noticed our baby girl was unwell.
