with oma visiting for friday and saturday nite we made the last minute decision to skip swimming class (which we're not sure we're getting value for money for anyways) and go to the beach instead. we went to quiet la perouse, i think the actual beach name is something starting with 'c' but i can't remember. it was really nice. the water was cool to start but very yummy once in. we even got percy to practice a few 'tiger arms' and kicking anyways. oma and paul got little nibbles on their feet from what we figure were tiny crabs, percy and i missed out- yay! percy also liked building sand castles and heaping sand on our shoulders and feet.
clambering around the rock pools looking for crabs and other interesting sea life was also well received. percy was quite happy to plunge her hand in and touch the seaweed, shells, crabs, dead crabs and assorted other aquatic worldliens. perhaps i should learn to identify what might harm her before i let her do this... oh well!
she crashed big time in the car on the way home. what an exhausted little munchkin.
then on sunday we drove to wollongong for percy's grandma's birthday. we had a very nice (and very expensive, which we were generously shouted) lunch. there was a jazz/swing band at the restaurant. i thought percy would be interested in seeing the instruments and maybe dancing. was she!??! throughout the meal and afterwards one of us was taking her over to get a closer look and to dance- which comprises nodding and swaying her head, stomping, swaying from foot to foot and sometimes doing a twirl. she was also lucky enough to be invited to play the piano during a set break. she got a bit shy and only touched the keys a couple of times tho. it is much bigger piano than her little five key toy at home after all!
it was a weekend of old people! ha ha
