Tricycle!

Yesterday was one of those lovely days where a family spends time together. We went to MacQuarie Centre and D purchased a lovely tricycle for Baby K. It's one of those ones that has a handle on it so you can push baby around when they're little, then take it off when they're older and they can steer themselves.
We took it down to Balmoral and K loved it! We took it over on the boardwalk and lost a part from it, though. Then went to our favourite supermarket (why can we never spend less than $150 there?)and got a video and other great stuff that you can't buy anywhere else for love or money.
Came home and D cooked us a lovely dinner. I don't know it was such a lovely day.

On a down note, K has started tantrums in earnest. Naughty girl. Throws herself on the floor and screams. Humph. Not impressed. We left MacQuarie early because despite having 4 goes on a kiddie ride there, she chucked an tantrum when taken off it. Shame.

Today is sunny and fine. D is on a double shift and I've been doing housework all morning, about to do some study. K is sleeping but is due to wake soon. All's good.

Sad news from the USA this weeks where some maniac student popped off 32 of his colleagues at some US college of higher education. Usual media frenzy, but little real analysis or insights into helping like mentally disturbed people. Sigh.
