Leviathan!

The day dawned cool and damp... and all too soon. The pitter patter of toddler paws, driven nearly insane by the unopened trampoline, awoke us. Sigh. Chris ate a sumptuous breakfast before prying a wee man off the trampoline box where he was trying to pry it open and the process of erecting Leviathan began.... There was much bustling as the box was opened and the many, many, many parts were levered out of the humongous box. Poles were carried to the lounge and stacked up high, where Cameron squeaked with joy and poked through the stack. K thrilled as the frame was assembled and swung upon, the poles and net installed and finally, a mere 2.5 hours later.... the trampoline was up!!! K swarmed upon it and jumped and bounced and laughed and shrieked.... he had a blast!!!! I must add that Chris decided that we needed the beast of trampolines - why, it only takes up a mere half the garden :) However K bounced and bounced and bounced and announced that he was going to have his nap on the trampoline.... when this was vetoed he said he would sleep in the trampoline box. 1 parent was inclined to grant his wish - but I was denied!!! We have big plans for the box too. The top half will be a rocket ship and K and I will paint and decorate it with a space theme. The bottom half will be a pirate ship - and will be decorated appropriately. Yay to know we have rainy day activities sorted haha :)
