Standing Frame Frolics

We have a standing frame on loan at the moment from the Cerebral Palsy League, so that Snail can use it to build up some strength and as part of her rehab.  While it looks like some kind of medieval torture device and takes up more room than a small car, it's worth is for the fun Snail has in it!

Monkey!!
 DinnerDad loaded up the girls on the weekend to storm watch in our front yard, here's Lolly on the front.  Too cute. 

We're probably going to apply for some funding to get one, they're pretty cool :D

Travels and such...now with too many photos!

All has been quiet on the blogging front, for two main reasons.  First, not having anything interesting to report for most of the time, we've been either home with Snail, or sick and home with Snail.  The girls have watched a LOT of My Little Pony.

The other main reason is we had a whirlwind trip overseas to Stockholm and London!  DinnerDad had to work in Stockholm (as you do) and we had a week holiday there and in London before heading back home.

It was awesome!!  Here are some snapshot highlights for your viewing pleasure :D  Sorry about the photo bombing, I've been sick since we got home two weeks ago with a bug we picked up in Sweden.  Blerg.  But worth it!!
