Tea party!

 

Monday Monkey Awards

On a fine day, Dom would be happily cavorting around parks and playgrounds outside, however windy and rainy conditions are forcing him to burn up some energy inside. Naturally this has led to a considerable about of chaos and destruction. He continues to impress with his innovative and creative approach to adding a bit of mess into my Monday morning (aw, he just came over to kiss the laptop screen and has left a slobbery drool mark!). Nominations of Monday Morning Monkey Award: 1.Impressively pushing the weighty dehumidified over when it had a full container of water to spill all over the carpet! (And then gleefully splashing in the water while I attempted to clean it up). 2. Throwing a rubber duck into the cat’s water bowl and then seizing the opportunity to grab a handful of cat biscuits whilst I was distracted with cleaning up the water. 3. Trying to steal a tinfoil wrapped potato from a kids’ cooking display at the library. 4. Posting the DVD remote through the cat door and then sneakily grabbing the TV remote to hide under the couch whilst I was retrieving the other remote. And the winner is: - Dehumidifier pushing over! Definitely caused the biggest mess and gets bonus marks for being an entirely new trick.

You're probably not supposed to take photos in the supermarket. Good thing I was low keying it with a tiny camera and only took a couple of photos :-)

The Lovely Library

 
 

The library continues to be one of Dom's favourite places to visit. On sunny days he can even romp about in the playground. Note that transitioning from indoor blocks play to outdoor slide play can involve a crossover period :-)

Writing goal met

A little early this week, as Mum and Dad are coming down for the weekend. I shall press on if the opportunity arises but it's nice to know that I've more than met my target even if I don't do anything else this week.

Not just Dom

 
 

I also like taking pictures of pretty scenery. And interesting objects up close. And pictures of stuff I've drawn on my whiteboard.

Hmmm, a bit of a theme here. Photos of Dom, Dom and Dom. Dom Dom Dom Dom Dom.
