So long winter!

I went out for dinner with my friend Stevie last night. She had birthday presents for Cameron so I took him along. She wanted me to take all the kids so she could see them but I didn't really want to handle all three of them out for dinner on my own without Dwayne's help.

Amazingly, Cameron behaved himself all night. I was very impressed to say the least. He can be an angel when he really wants to be!

It was nice catching up with Stevie, and getting out of the house. Better than the usual Wednesday night in. We'll have to do it again sometime. Maybe with Emma and Chelsea though, to be fair. I always love catching up with friends I don't see often.

I went hiking again last Saturday, and took Chelsea with me this time. I know you're probably thinking she's too little to be able to walk so long on her own over rough terrain. But I had her in a backpack, and she loved it! Not to mention it was extra exercise for me, as I was feeling pretty slack as I hadn't gone for a walk or run for a couple of days. It wasn't a huge hike, but two hours with a toddler on your back is long enough! My shoulders were killing me by the end. Tough stuff!

Chelsea actually fell asleep half of the way too. I don't know how! It was a bumpy ride but I suppose it's lilke being in a pram or a car, only a little rougher. I'm taking Emma next time. She was at home with Dwayne having a daddy day. And Cameron was with the in-laws.

I love that the weather is getting better so we can do more things out doors. Glad to be rid of winter I'll tell you that!
