I took the kids through to St Francis this morning. There was a gale force westerly blowing so it wasn't fun driving.
The kids are looking forward to the week with ouma and oupa. We will see at the end of the week if ouma and oupa still feel the same!
Well mom finally decide the time was right for the girls to get earrings. She wanted to find a place that did both ears at the same time. But stumbled into our chemist and saw all the lovely earrings and the rest is history.
The girls were very good and didn’t cry at all. Kayra came close on the second ear.
They sure are growing up too fast!
We though the kids were old enough to try out pannetjies. Something from their Dutch heritage. everyone gets a small pan and cooks their own food over a burner.
Everyone had a great time, although there was lots of food left over.
Seems like this is going to be a regular Friday night meal!
The kids room has changed again! The bunk bed is now two single beds. Jorja seems to love not being on top any more!
Ouma and oupa are back from their camping trip in the Addo National Elephant Park.
They had a great time and good weather.
They go back to St Francis tomorrow with Oumies and the dogs.
Grandpa George was in St George’s hospital again for two nights for a blood transfusion. His Hb count is back over 10 for now. His colour is good and he seems to be in good spirits.
We started with the twins Mathew and Oliver’s birthday at a touch farm in the morning. Then Kayla’s birthday in the afternoon.
Needless to say we did not want much for supper!
After her dive this morning, Shirley decided it was time to take her stitches out. So equipped with a pair of scissors and tweezers, I managed to get the 7 stitches out without too much screaming.
The hand is looking good and is healing well
Shirley went diving again for recollection samples. So the kids and I went to the beach at 7:30am. Was a bit chilly bit warmed up fast.
SAMREC were releasing some penguins they had nursed back to health. The kids had a great time watching them cautiously swimming back to freedom. Although some needed a helping hand!
Kids spent 3 hours in the freezing water again.
Shirley had to go diving for a recollection of samples for the natural product anti-cancer research projects she is involved in. So I was on kiddie duty. Luckily the weather was good.
On Saturday they had 2 friends, who had slept over Friday night, with them, and no costumes. Shirley said no swimming because they were sick.
So after they were wet to the waste, I relented and ended up with 4 girls in panties in the ice cold water, 16°C. Two hours later they we still in playing in the sea.
Anyway they enjoy themselves and barely kept awake on the drive home
