Best of Both Worlds

I think Monet has the best of both worlds here in our new home. And why shouldn't she?

After all our dramas over her teeth (she hasn't complained about her 'sore mouth' since Monday!) she deserves to live in a happy, safe and fun environment and our new home is all that. Okay, she still gets a bit grumpy and moody (who doesn't?) but when Monet is sweet, she really is sweet. (But man, when she's grumpy, boy, does she get grumpy! Nanna can vouch for that!)

So we live less than a quick 10 minute walk down to the beach, where Monet has been enjoying 'making cakes' with her bucket and spade. Banana cakes have been popular down the beach, even though I think in Monet's lifetime I have only baked one banana cake so I don't know where she has got that idea from. Yesterday down the beach though, it was Chocolate cakes. Mmm...
We also live incredibly close to a new children's playground, which Monet thinks is wonderful. Except on Wednesday mornings. That's when the local young school children come over to use the play equipment and Monet's not too keen on sharing the swings with other kids... What more could a child want, the daily choice of the playground or the beach? If she's lucky she gets to do both. And if she isn't grumpy there is always our 'perfect' pool...

Yep, the best of both worlds. Right here. Care to join us today, on this gorgeous sunny, cloudless day? Which would you prefer to do? Beach? Playground? Or the perfect pool?
