Life is ....

Winter is settling in and it's not only the seasons that are changing (more of that to hopefully come later). In prep for the cold weather coming in, we had a log delivery and for the first time, there was a brief moment when the Weedude was moderately helpful. Filling his little wheelbarrow with logs and dumping them close to the store......that was quickly replaced however, with him taking a ride in the wagon and being part of the load on each trip.

Life is busy but it's all good. A is growing up far too quickly, he's a beaut of a boy but bleddy hell, he's tiring. I guess it's the same for all parents but how I miss proper lie-ins. L and me take it in turns at the weekend to get an extra hour in bed but it's not really the same.

He loves swimming but not being in the lake (yet). He loves the beach and ocean but the waves are a bit much for him at the moment. Risking taking, bouncing, leaping and mountain biking (or, rather him on his Strider bike or in the trailer behind me) are all things he loves.

Only pre-school but he has a flipping school uniform (at 3yrs old)

He did attempt the learner board

Even though life has been and continues to be very hectic, we have managed to get back to the coast a few times (and should catch up with friends in a couple of weeks) and I've still been hitting the lake for some wakeboard sessions - not as many as I'd like. Todays session was the first one in a winter wettie but as I thought I'd packed my spring suit, it was proper cosy dropping in the water with a 5:3 on.

In other geeky news, I've just ordered my first Apply Mac laptop this weekend. Lets see if I can cope with the switch from Windows to Apple.....how hard can it be?
