Moon walker... My Michael Jackson!

T hurt his ankle at rugby the other week. After staying home Friday because he could not walk, and not being able to finish training on Monday, he asked to go to the doctors. I took him in first thing Tuesday morning. We are getting used to the doctors here, so my son had a bit of a laugh.. Here's why. 
T hobbled into the doctors. The doctor says "hmm no swelling but a little tender here, so I think we will do an exray." T and I look at each other and I say, "does he really need an exray? He walked in here." The doctor then proceeded to tell me that sometimes people can walk on a broken ankle - I'm guessing he means hairline fracture or something.. And he ordered the X-ray. 
X-ray was taken, and big surprise.. doctor said,"good news it's not broken" no, really (ok so pretend to be shocked!)
He then says but he needs a moon boot. I associate moon boots with broken legs so I was again questioning him about the moon boot.. He insists, disappears the nurse comes along with a fancy handsome lookin' moon boot. T was like - I'm not wearing a moon boot! - hello, the nurse says it's the "new orange" when it comes to ankle repairs. Above strapping. He was told no sports for 3 weeks. Lol. Now since my son has been so fantastic with his coverage of other moments in our family via snapchat and such I returned the favor(not with snapshot but in fine paparatsi style). 
Here is my baby's first steps in his little booty and a moment in time captured for my moon walker. Lol him to bits!

"I'll be your best friend?!"

My baby never fails to have a “such a cutie” moment every day. I don’t know what it is about him, perhaps knowing he is the baby, or simply that he was such a good baby, that I have noticed these little moment s more.   I have to share this one with you. It has happened twice this last week. We are sitting in the car and Rakaipaka calls out and asks for something. Usually it is a lolly or chocolate or something I don’t have at that time. Anyway I call out ‘no’, and the response comes back, “Oooh, Ill be your best friend”!!! Ha How cute is that!! He is all of what 2 years old and is already trying that line on his mother!!! Now the question is posed…. Which one of his siblings did he hear that from!!!!

Volleyball

Teancum really enjoys playing volleyball. He jumped right into the teams at boys high, and within a couple of weeks, he was in the 'A' team. They came runner up this season to a solid Hillcrest school team. An awesome group of boys.
