What a huge week. There has not been one day where we have stayed at home all day!
Monday - kids went into occasional care for an hour while I went to the gym. Sasha didn't want to leave and Alex played happily for the whole time.
Tuesday - Sasha had kindagym, so Alex went into occasional care for that hour. It is so much easier giving Sasha all the attention she needs when I don't have to look after Alex at the same time...and he doesn't have to spend the hour sitting in his pram.
Wednesday - Play School concert. This was totally awesome. Sasha and I both loved it. She was so excited it was just beautiful to see. I was a little worried that I'd spent a lot of time looking forward to this and then end up feeling anxious/worrying about how things were going that I wouldn't just sit back and enjoy (this seems to happen to me a lot!!). Thankfully, I did. I wasn't worried about how Alex was coping and it was obvious Sasha was having a good time. The camera didn't make that many appearances either. I did just sit back and it was great.
Thursday - went to a Teddy Bears picnic at a park in Dandenong. A fair way to travel for such a thing but my mum "invited" us, and it was good to get an insight into some of what she does for work. Sasha was tired from the day before so there were a few tantrums, but I wasn't all that concerned and I wasn't even that concerned when Alex was enjoying a lovely blend of watermelon, grass and dirt.
Friday - Baby Time at the library.
Saturday - both Sasha and Alex had swimming lessons. Later in the afternoon I took Sasha back to the pool for a play as part of the swim schools Good Friday Appeal fundraiser. Sasha just loves the water and I love that she loves it, so have no problems encouraging her!!
Now, my kids and I are all exhausted after such a full on week. I'm proud that I didn't spend all week fretting about getting through such a busy week though!
