Today I

  • Woke up in the tent in the side yard with Johann.  I set it up yesterday, and showed it to him, and he was ok with it, but not super interested.  I put the air mattress, but also the orange mats, and then Kel put just about every pillow in the house around the air mattress.  When it was time to go in, all three of us went in, but once he got fussy and needed to settle in, Kel left us.  He kept crawling for the door, but then I told him we were sleeping there,and he followed my lead.  Eventually he drifted off to sleep, and so did I.  He woke up in the night crying, i think he was a bit cold, even though we dressed him in a pretty fleecy- sleepy suit. At first he didn't want to be covered with his blanket, but then he settled in on top of me, and fell asleep.  We slept like that a bit, him on my belly, me on my back.  Eventually he moved off, next to me, and i could cover him with my blanket, and he did fine.  He just slept perpendicular to me, which was tough, but I managed.  It was a successful night.  He really liked the head lamp.  Was super excited about the light.  This morning I bounced him on the air mattress.  
  • Kel went to swim, so I took mini man to see about the beer judging.  Turns out it wasn't awards, but judging happening that day.  So I took him ot he farmer's market in the pack.  I think he got sunscreen in his eye, it was red and teary, poor guy.  We got a roasted chicken and potatoes, and KEl eventually found us over there, after missing finding us the first time.  I got two tomato plants, a black cherry and a pineapple.  WIll eb interested to see what I get.
  • Johann fell asleep on the way hiome, and I managed to get him out of his seat while still asleep, and into his crib, where he slept for about 3 hours.  I'm guessing he didn't have the greatest night sleep last night.  Good to note for future camping.
  • I packed up the tent this afternoon.  It was nearly 100 today. I also transferred all the medicinal plants to their final pots.  They seem to be doing OK.
  • Kel made a Tahi curry with coconut rice for dinner, and it was good.  Johann inhaled his and wanted more.  His signing is getting better, and he's using "yes" more spontaneously, and seems to understand "flower" and can say where his head is when asked.  This is good.
  • Kel announced that she needs more cookies so I baked a batch for her.
  • Jon and ROmi came over to wath season 4, ep 9 of game of Thrones with us.  Jon brought a blackberry sour from Almanac.  SUPER sour.  Very tart.
