Yesterday was Australia Day and to celebrate, I took the boys into Commonwealth Park (while Jimmy worked). It was super hot in there but it was really well set up for kids.....there was a free brekky with a sausage sizzle and yummy fruit and the Gecko Gang were also there providing free fun stuff for the kids.
Jett got right into the free stuff (that's my boy!) - he went on this giant inflatable worm type thing....the kids ran through it and then came out the end via a big slide - I thought Jett might be a bit worried about going inside it with all the other kids running and screaming but I'm slowly realising that Jett is now one of the big kids that DOES the running and screaming - it's great to see our little man becoming such a confident, big kid.
He also went on one of those giant slides - I had Ollie in the pram so I couldn't really go on it with him. I told Jett if he wanted to go down the slide, he'd need to do it by himself......I couldn't believe it but that was absolutely no problem for him. We bought his tickets, I told him he'd need to collect a hessian sack to sit on and then give the man his ticket. I was waiting for his nerves to kick in but no, the brave little thing walked all the way up the stairs, he carefully laid his hessian sack down on the slide, climbed on and then he was off - down the slide all by himself! I was so proud of him - he went down 3 times and not once did he hesitate - the brave little thing!
