6WS - Time flies, the babies are growing

My own babies are no longer babies and trying to take photos of teenage boys requires too much effort and lots of pleading anyway. So I take photos of my grandson and my fur baby because they don't argue with me or hide their heads.

My grandson is almost 9 months old - how that time has flown. He came for a sleepover last night and I forgot to grab his bag of toys from my son's house. No need though, because it turns out that nani has fun toys anyway, a front load washing machine provides hours of fun because he's fascinated by the washing going around and around.

Plus nani has empty coffee cans that are fantastic fun to roll around. How easy it is to entertain and amuse babies? I pulled a handful of colourful silicone cupcake moulds, plastic lids and measuring cups out of the drawer and he was in his element. Who needs to spend gazillions of dollars on toys anyway?

Molly, our fur baby will be 12 weeks old tomorrow. She graduated from puppy school on Wednesday night and was the last puppy on the floor after a game of musical chairs (without the chairs). The aim was to walk in a circle with the music and then when the music stops they have to sit down. Last one to sit down each round is out of the game. She won.

She's captured everyone's heart and has a delightful personality. That's not to say that she doesn't have some annoying little puppy habits that we need to work on. Like chewing through the hose that runs from our washing machine to the front lawn, or chewing through the power cord on the pump in the fish pond.

Hubby has now replaced everything with heavy duty chew proof hose and a cover for the fish pond cord. We now also have all shoes in a cupboard and not by the back door. So we're puppy proofing the yard and child proofing the house for the grandson. Fun times.

Hope you've all had a good week

Cheers, Fi
