After a hectic day yesterday at school getting ready for a pirate party once I fetched Reece we were then told that Wednesday was ride to school day plus decorate your bicycle! Then to top it all the teachers at Bryce's school has decided that the teddy bears had behaved so well the previous week that they were having another teddy bears picnic!
So on Tuesday after picking the boys up from school we were back at the shops buying goodies to decorate a scooter (Reece does not enjoy riding his bicycle) and also to find a teddy. Bryce had told me in no uncertain terms that he was not going to school unless he had a teddy!
So we went shopping at a local haberdashery store for ribbons etc to decorate the scooter and then went running around looking for a teddy for Bryce. Now in his mind the teddy had to wear clothes and to tell you the honest truth there were not many around that had any clothes! So trying to reason with a 3 yr old about what the teddy must and must not look like, plus we only had 1 hour to get all shopping done as in wonderful Perth all shops close at 5:00pm!
Well we did we found a teddy - a sporty teddy that is a supporter of a footy team - Westcoast Eagles but not the team down the road from us which is Freemantle - Freemantle dockers - as Bryce said that the purple and white colours are for girls and he could not have that teddy! So we now have a new family member called "Rocky"!
Mission accomplished we found all we needed in record time. Whew!
So Wednesday morning once again we were up early as we had to ride to school on our decorated scooter. (Parrot sitting in a tree!) We cheated a bit and parked about 4 blocks away from school and then rode on scooters the rest of the way. Reece was very happy at the end of the day as his decorated scooter was the winner in his class! Bryce also had a great day with "Rocky".Hopefully tomorrow afternoon we can relax - oh no just remembered we have swimming lessons!
Cheers
