The parents have all moved in – they were unsure whether they could stay there over the weekend but Toby asked immediately if he could sleep over.  So that convinced them.   Saturday was spent emptying many boxes and trying to find a place for everything.   Toby slept over on Saturday night and I think the Xbox has a lot to do with that.  Apparently he played until 10pm and then asked Gramps to come and turn it off as he was going to sleep!  So, he does have a limit.   It is just a very big limit!
 
Sunday was Father ’s Day and there were presents!  We also had Boston ’s party to go to in Kilbirnie – a wheels party.  We parked in the pool carpark and Toby scooted along with us as we went round to the recreation centre only to find a huge mesh gate in the driveway to stop trucks!  There were some child sized holes in the mesh but they were a little small for me to fit through.  Mike grabbed the chain to check it was locked then lifted the entire gate off its hinge on one side.  Toby gaped!   We hurried through then Mike picked the gate up and put it back on its hinge with me giggling away.   Toby was adamant we weren ’t returning that way!
 
The party was good.   We headed back to Ngaio for lunch and then back home to tidy up.   We got the washing done and I planted out the final plants from my birthday package!  Now I need a few more plants and we ’ll be ready to do some landscaping and get it all done.
 
Today was a lovely start to the day.  Mike has lunch duty at the side school and Toby is very pleased about that.
