Beach Day!


We had such an awesome day today! My Mum is here at the moment, so she is letting Simon and I sleep in a bit in the mornings and she has been getting up with Kason and Cohen when they wake up. Anyways, after breakfast, Mum, Kason, Cohen and I drove out to the airport to pick up my Dad! We got there in time to see him walking off the plane through the glass airbridge, and by the time the boys investigated Santa's big chair (Santa hadn't arrived yet) and got back downstairs, we only had to wait a few minutes before Dad came through the doors. Cohen and Kason just lit up when they saw their Grumps and went straight to him J Both boys fell asleep on the drive home, then kept sleeping for another hour or so!

After lunch, we got ourselves sorted and drove down to Port Willunga to play on the beach and go for a swim. The weather was absolutely stunning (finally we're getting some summer!), and the water was divine. I honestly think that there is very little that is more refreshing than a swim in the ocean.
The best part - Cohen's and Kason's faces when they were in the ocean with the gentle waves crashing into them. They were squealing with delight...this photo of Cohen says it all really!


They are both really enjoying having both Nana and Grumps here to play with, and we're all looking forward to Simon being on holiday from Friday - we have lots planned before my parents head up to Queensland to spend some time with two of my brothers and their families.

Aldinga and Sellicks Beaches

We have had such an awesome weekend! It's so nice when Si isn't working the Saturday. We didn't really do a whole lot, but yesterday afternoon we went for a drive down the coast a little. We only went about 30mins south, but, for whatever reason, we hadn't made it down there before now! It is absolutely stunning, and I managed to get quite a few really good shots which I was stoked about. We figured it would be a good day to go for a drive because daylight savings ended and it would be easier to change the boys' timing for dinner, bath, bed and naps cause being in the car puts them to sleep - so we left at their nap time and it worked a treat! But then Kase decided he wanted to be awake between 3:30am and 5am this morning...great fun. I would much rather be up early (and I am NOT a morning person!) than have broken sleep. He then fell asleep during breakfast for 20mins, refused to have his usual morning nap. It is only just now that I have managed to have both boys asleep at the same time since 6am this morning!
Today has just been a quiet, usual Monday at home. And after the boys wake and have had a feed, we'll go for a walk - it's beautiful outside :-)
