After school on Monday I took Sebastian for an adventure. He was pretty tired and looked like he might be hard to please. But I fell across an amazing place and we had a great time. He pretty much had the place to himself and took adventure of this fact for almost two hours. It was great.
Lola got a life changing pram. Last weekend we went to the mall and they had a dog fair, loads of dogs everywhere in a pram. I knew we needed one. Lola will be 17 in a few days and although she is still young at heart her legs disagree. It is sometimes hard for her to go too far. This has been a game changer. She can now walk with us to the park and all around without getting tired and needing to be carried.
After a three month break from entertaining, we are back at it. We started back with old reliable Mexican with another family in the building. Felicity is in the wine club and one of their three children is in Sebastian's class. It was chaotic, Sebastian is not the best at sharing yet but he did relent after a few tears. They actually ended up playing brilliantly, a very happy sight to see.
It seems wine club has taken on a different context here. It has become literally about drinking wine and less about the tasting. Although, I am going to try and bring it back to tasting next month, I must say it is enjoyable! On Thursday we had three ladies in charge of the night and it was all about relaxing, drinking wine and making friends.
Never ever again!! I hate sugar and I have no idea why it is not banned. Well certainly sweets or other items marketed towards young children. They just cannot handle it, it is like poison. Sebastian was so tired yesterday after school celebrations. But equally super excited about Halloween in our building. And it was nice to see people dressed up (albeit not him who was done with it all) but all the children were tired and ready to lose it. Sebastian had two small candies and was a crying mess. I have never seen anything like it. By this morning all signs of Halloween were gone. And our house back to normal. Bring on Christmas!
Sebastian was very excited about Halloween and his costume The Ghost of Chase. He decided on it without any prompting, but do not worry he is not quite that morbid, he has been watching a show that has nice ghost pups. He then linked the ghost idea with his love for Chase. He had three events to attend, one big one at school on Sunday, the actual day at school on Monday and then Monday night at our building.
Sunday event Number one was a success!
Before the Halloween fun we had lunch with Jacqui who was in town for a conference. So happy to have her so close by.
