Last weekend Grantz came to stay. We had pretty good weather all weekend so we got to hang out at the beaches and parks for quite a lot of the weekend which was great. Sophie got lots more pressie's for her birthday from Nicci which made her day too!

Now that Sophie has turned two, she has been shifted out of the 'under 2's' section of Kids Klub and put in with the big kids. I wish I could say that Sophie loves it...but sadly she isn't enjoying it as much. Normally she'll get really excited in the morning when Ingrid mentions 'Kids Klub', but lately her bottom lip has been dropping and she's been saying that horrible two letter word whenever it's mentioned ....'NO'. The teachers have been trying to slowly integrate Sophie into the older section, but sadly, she is by far the youngest in there, as most of the kids are 3-4 years old and thus, obviously, far more developed than our little Soph.

Still, she absolutely loves playing outside while she's there, but is struggling with the structured systems they have in place while they're all stuck inside, and when it's raining of course...she's far too little to be told to sit down in a semi circle and sing 'nursery rhyme's' or to read stories with the other kids etc. It's not all complete doom and gloom though, a few of her younger buddies she's made friends with are about to cross over to the 'over 2's' and will join her in the next few weeks which should make her happier, and to be fair, it's going to take Sophie a little while to adjust to new people and the new systems they have in place, it's just sad seeing Sophie looking a little lost and confused, and spending a lot of time hanging out by herself while she's there because she's too young to communicate with the older and more boisterous kids.
