Today has been an amazingly good day. It all began with our first froglet sitting on his rock taking it all in. i have become rather fond of our amphibian friends even though they have only been here four days. This little guy has stayed put on this rock all day. He was joined by our second froglet by tea time.
We then spent the morning with friends and fellow home ed families at a nearby park where several triumphs occured. Plum crawled up the small slide and then slide back down. she spent a lot of time sitting at the bottom of the two slides and trying to climb up them. she also really enjoyed the zip wire! Bean conquered his zip wire fear, so as well as riding solo, he also managed to sit on it and ride free from any help at all.
This afternoon saw us digging up a patch in the garden, completely spontaneously, as Bean announced that he wanted to build a fire pit. Inspired by yesterday's visit to Amberely museum and several episodes of Bob the Builder, we set to it. We spent a very happy 2 hours measuring and digging and moving soil and rocks. What a good job we had lots of bricks and hardcore lying around our garden!
And finally Bean and I made biscuits together. Pumpkin has been around today (just in case you were wondering) joining in and having fun and helping out. The best part was when Bean and I were busy in the kitchen and Pumpkin was lying on the living room floor with Plum sitting on his stomach and he was bouncing her up and down with giggles from both of them.
