We'll all sleep well tonight!

Wow - what a weekend - and it isn't even over yet.

Yesterday we had another open house, no buyers through though :-(

After Hayden's sleep we went up to the Buddina School 'Big Day Out' which was basically their school fete/fair. The first thing Hayden did was have his face painted...


(do you see a trend emerging?!!)

Then it was time for some rides, we did the giant slide - 4 times (with Daddy of course)



And also the UFO ride (twice)



he also rode on a truck that was painted up like a fire engine, had a great play in the ball pit and patted the animals in Old McDonald's Farm (although had to overcome being bitten by a chicken when he stuck his hand thru the fence into it's mouth!!) We also saw lots of little friend there, both his 'Emily' friends, who he had a wonderful time running races with and then falling on the ground in fits of laughter - only to have either Emily fall down with him and giggle too, such the comedian!

We left the fair a bit after 6pm just as a thunder storm was rolling in. We had dinner at Mum and Dad's and Hayden had special chicken drumsticks, mmmmm.

Then onto today - the weather was cloudy and windy so Erin wasn't going to be jumping, we decided to go out for breakfast to Chancellors Tavern, it has a great play area for kids and Hayden can wander around and not get into any (ahem - much) harm, he's mezmerised by the big 'claw' toys where you have to manouver the claw to grab a toy or some chocolate bars etc, another family was playing and won some chocolate and Hayden did the quick grab and run and made off with a handful of chocolates - OMG!!! We made him give them back and the family let him keep a freddo frog... choccie thief!! Anyway, had a great breakfast and then went down to the HMAS Brisbane Memorial as Erin hadn't seen it, then we decided to hit the home show, one of my clients had a stall there so we checked it out and looked around, we ended up being there for over 2 hrs as Hayden fell asleep in the pram so we killed some time and watched the motorbike display. When he woke up he was hungry but all he wanted was an...



Ice Cream.... yum!!

Now I'm exhausted!! It was really nice to hang out as a family over the weekend though, something we don't get to do very often. I sure will sleep well tonight!
