rolling stones, rain and sharks...

Austin has been through massive change in his little life lately...new house, new suburb, new kindy, daddy's new work...and his way of coping has been to hang onto and become obsessed with certain items of clothing that he had to wear EVERY day! 42 days straight in his rolling stones t-shirt and denim shorts to be exact!!! Would love to get into his head and find out what significance those two items hold...  
                                              
the 'outfit'
 So to try and break the habit we made up a reward chart and if Austin wore a different outfit every day for a week (we took photos) we promised him he could choose something that he really wanted to do. Well he got through the week, with a few tears on some of the days, and he decided that what he really wanted to do was "go into the city with mummy on my own, without Lily". So the grandparents were called in to babysit Lily and off we went on a rainy rainy rainy Saturday...
