Today we awoke at a bashing on the door at 6:30am, the kids were here. So, we got up and fed them and did the morning routine. Then we decided to go to Toys’R'Us to buy some presents, they were excited!
We ended up getting the girls a little bike each, they are so cute, and two new beds to replace the cots. Emily got a little princess one and Tiana got a little mermaid one.
The boys got a whole heap of hotwheels cars which they loved, as soon as we got home, wait… even in the car on the way home they had them opened and were playing with them!
Once we got home, i got the bike’s built and the girls where riding around on them whilst I built the beds for them. We moved the cots into the garage and re-arranged their room with the new beds, it looks awesome!
I’ve put some photo’s of the girls new beds up in the gallery, and also some photo’s of them with their new bikes.
I had a long weekend this weekend, it was great. I got to spend time with the kids and Rachelle. On Sunday we decided to go to the Strand for a BBQ lunch, but it failed due to the stupid rain that came over, so we played with the kids at the water park and then went back home to dry ourselves off. Afterwards we went to Sabina’s and had a BBQ, drank some beers with Cameron, and Rachelle had some wine with Sabina while the kids all played, it was a great ending to a Sunday afternoon.
Matt & Jacob had their first day at the new daycare, the same one the girls go to. The boys said they enjoyed it a lot, which is great since they left their old friends at the other daycare, but they still see them at school. Rachelle and Jacob finished the seashell wind chime tonight, I got it all put together and now we just need to find some place to hang it. I am off to work again tomorrow at 8:20am which I am not looking forward to.
This morning started with the girls sneaking out of their room, and into ours to wake us up at about 6:30am, which was naughty. We then did the usual, breakfast, getting the kids dressed etc. We then took the kids and Cassie to Pallarenda to go for a swim, they enjoyed it and Rachelle and Jacob collected some seashells while Matt and I played frisbee. The girls ran around the beach crazily and Cassie went swimming.
After that we came home and started making a wind chime with all the seashells we collected, it’s going great, I will take a photo once it’s completed. We then just played around with the kids all afternoon, and had a sleep whilst the girls did. Rachelle showered the girls while I was cooking dinner, it worked out great. I cooked a nice steak for us, some vegetables and mashed potato, Jacob had sausages instead.
The girls are in bed now, and the boys are watching 102 dalmations on TV. Rachelle and I are about to have some ice cream and watch SuperBad. We are going to take the kids for a picnic tomorrow with one of Rachelle’s friends and her kids, should be fun. I will try get a lot of photo’s and put them up in the gallery. Stay tuned.
