The week went well. We both had things on on Thursday night so Denise & Rob babysat, which went well. We had good weather on Saturday and in the morning we had a trip out to the airport because Sophia went to Sydney for the NRL Grand Final. I'm sure we could have stayed out there for ages looking at the planes etc but we left when Sophia went through to the departure lounge and headed out for some other adventures. There was an Onehunga patrol on Joseph's new trike. After about 50 minutes of pushing and Joseph nearly asleep at the wheel I steered Joseph back down Tawa Rd and into our driveway, but I underestimated Joseph's alertness and we had a standoff for a few minutes. Luckily the swing came to the rescue as an alternative activity. After lunch we headed out to get some vegies then down to the playground in Orakei, which is good and popular. Joseph gatecrashed a couple of groups when he spotted unattended balls, one time running about 200m to secure a rugby ball. Then we headed round to Jeremy and Jen's for dinner and to catch up with Ben and their brand new baby Thomas. Joseph settled in quickly for a feed and bath, then into the portacot - no worries at all.
On Sunday the weather wasn't so good so we had a bit more time indoors:
But we headed down to Cornwall Park and once again some ball acquisition was on the agenda
Bikes were also a target, but potential incidents were defused successfully. After lunch, sleep and bottle we headed into work to give a colleague a hand to move some stuff and Joseph had a good look around the office and out the windows of the 19th floor at all the buses, ships, buildings, the bridge etc. Then we checked out the trains at Britomart station and did some escalator investigation. Then it was time to head for home to finish off the week with dinner, bath and about 20 stories - and going to bed before dark now that daylight saving has started.
