Coming back to reality. Reluctantly.

I haven't had loads of time to blog. There are too many other exciting things that I would rather be doing, to be honest. This weekend, I went to a wine farm / tasting session at Groot Constantia. It was really one of the best days of my life. On Sunday the boys loved the street performers at the Waterfront, especially this contortionist guy, that the rabbit tried to copy. He is not one to be outdone. We went to the little beach in Sea Point and saw a dead seal... Ewwww. We had a braai, we drove up to Signal Hill on Friday night. The boys loved loved loved the lights. I spent some good quality time with the boys on Saturday morning, just playing in their room.

I seem to be more relaxed here. My bond with Noah is getting a lot better. We were not good friends for a while there, while he was adjusting to his new environment. That boy can be downright unreasonable. I feel like he's settled now, and back to his old self, which makes me a very happy mommy. He makes me so proud, every day. My heart is so filled with love for that boy, it's just frightening.

Benjamin has started talking again. He stopped for a while, when he started walking. Now that the pitter patter is all sorted, he's back to chatting. His new favorite word is MOMMY mommy mommy mommy (on repeat, times ten) and bike, baby, wawa. He calls everyone baby except me. It's his thing. He is also loving his new nanny, which is great. They go to the library for story time, and to the park and for long walks. Everyone knows how much little rabbits love to hop around. 

It feels like everyone is settled now, except me. I'm still in holiday / exploring / admin / sorting out mode and I need to settle back in to reality soon. Bummer.
