Tuesdays - A Full Schedule!..

Tuesdays have become quite the day for Hudson and I. It's busier than it appears due to the fact that we get around on foot so places that are 'just down the road' take a good 30-40 minutes to get to. But I love it particularly with the great sunny weather and the goal to lose a bit more weight (oh I've lost 2kg in the past couple of weeks...WIN!)
So first up is 'Baby Rhyme Time' at the Kawana Library at 10am. A 20 minute session lead by one of the librarians with Nursery Rhymes, songs and a story being read to a group of bubbas up to 2 years old. Hudson can be a bit of a 'stunned mullet' in public situations and doesn't normally like them so I've been trying to get him amongst things like this to be around kids particularly since I don't attend things like Mother's Group. Yesterday was hilarious. Whilst all the children were sitting nicely with their parents, I could not keep Huddo still for the life of me. The librarian liked it and told me not to worry. He hung right up the front with the librarian and by the time the 'ABC's' song came on Huddo was the only bubba standing up the front clapping and bopping up and down and looking back to make sure I was still there and having a great old time. It was so cute to see him come out of his shell like this and I've made it that we are definitely heading back each week! After the session had finished I got Huddo to pick out a few library books to read for the week. It sort of looked like he was just simply trying to destroy the joint when he first pulled out a book but he seemed to stand and study it's cover so closely and then just as I thought he was going to throw it on the ground and go to the next one he looked up at me and handed it to me. "Ok mate you can pick a couple more if you want"....

Next up was Swimming Lesson at Sink or Swim School at 2pm. Huddo started swimming lessons a few weeks back. It is very cute and lots of fun and feels good to know he is on the track to knowing how to be water-safe. After swimming we stopped in at Kidzown for Huddo to have a run around the toddler area. I wanted to let him exhaust himself a bit more before the 40 minute trek home. They had a ball pit in the toddler area at Kidzown which Huddo had never been in before and he found it lots and lots of fun....

After a good 45 minutes of playing we hit the road and whilst walking along back home we played a good old game of 'peek-a-boo' ( we call it 'Hide-ies'.) Huddo was getting so exhausted and with his hands up over his eyes during round 4 of "Where's Huddo Huddo?...I can't see him. Where did he go?"......."Huddo? Huddo?"....I reached into the pram and gently moved his hands......sound asleep. Sooooo cute!

As I walked down my street back to the apartment with my Huddo sound asleep in the pram, my legs started to feel a bit jelly-like. About 11kms of walking for the day. Tuesday is good for Huddo and great for my fitness. LOVE IT!
