Fun long weekend

It was Labour weekend in NZ this weekend and finally we got some nice weather.

Saturday Kahurangi was staying with Nan and Koro, so Laurel and Te Po Atarau went out to the hutt to pick him via craft2.0 and savemart. That gave me time to catch up a lot of Koha bits and pieces I had been meaning to do. They stayed out there for dinner and got back just in time to put the kids to bed.

Sunday started with Kahurangi and I going to the markets and then to Te Papa, which is a fairly regular thing for us. We had brunch at the markets and then a late lunch at Te Papa after looking at Kahu’s favourite exhibit the cane-os (volcanoes). That afternoon Kahu and I went to pick up Matt who had tickets to the Phoenix game and went off to the game. Little did we know it was going to be the game of the season with the Phoenix thrashing the Gold Coast 6-0. Kahurangi got a little bit freaked out when the first goal was scored, but he soon got used to it and started yelling “Penix” and clapping madly and saying “Stand up daddy”.

Today was another chilled day, the highlight of the day was when Kahu was reading me a story before bed. We got to a page with 3 penguins, 2 adult ones and a baby one (complete with all the fluffy feathers). Kahu said “Mummy, Daddy and that fat thing”.

All in all a good weekend.

What a weekend

A whirlwind trip to Christchurch, where it was lovely to catch up with some relatives. Meanwhile FUD was flying around about the Koha community. Enough about that though, here are some of the fun things that happened.

Kahurangi decided to kiss some trees when we were in Christchurch

Te Po Atarau went on his first flights, and was well behaved (even though he had a cold)

Kahurangi also came up with some good quotes. He was eating an ice cream and it started dripping. “Uh oh, I have a problem”.

Then we had noodles for lunch and sometime later in the afternoon, after having a tantrum about something and running off into the kitchen, he came back into the lounge with big tears in his eyes and his hands full of cold left over noodles. “My noonells”. It was pretty hard not to laugh and give him a speech about not taking food out of the rubbish instead.
