Canberra, 17 degrees & sunny

Dad’s at work, Jeremy’s at Little School and Ange is having a rest at home getting all the burps and farts out of Will.

Will and I were discharged from the Calvary just shy of a month ago. That day, in itself was quite the adventure! The plan was for Ben to drive us home and for the 3 of us to walk to the Belconnen Markets for lunch. Well it all fell to pieces when Ben and I realised that Will was just too little for the baby capsule. (It had fitted Jeremy fine on his first trip home so we were absolutely baffled at to why it wouldn’t fit now!) (It was not supposed to matter that Will was ½ a kilo lighter!) Two failed attempts to make it fit (one by Ben and the other by me) we gave up and Ben squeezed between Jeremy and Will’s car seats, with Will strapped in as safely as possible, while I drove home. Given that I’d just had a baby I took my sweet time gliding down Belconnen Way (an 80k zone) at 40 k/hour the one block to our place.
