With such a short last month of summer we’ve been soaking up the sunshine and trying to make the most of the warmth while it’s here (though I am not so secretly willing winter to come asap for wardrobe sake) Heres some fun things we’ve been up to lately.

We visited the kiddy farm with Lynds & Ben on the weekend. This piglet could have fit in our bag….surely.

Nice little bike rides to the park.

Ball and frisbee marathons, often involving several mixed breed puppies chasing Wilfred till he can hardly breathe.

Beach visits (though I haven’t entered the water past my knees at all this season!) to our favourite dog-friendlies on the north side.

Clontarf and Sirius Cove, which are perfect doggy beaches if anyone is interested.

Trying new local cafes (this one was Double Roasters in Marrickville) and sitting out in the sunshine (again, with Wilfy in tow). He’s such well behaved little guy we can never bare to leave him at home on weekends. He has no interest in wandering off, avoids small children and is happiest slouched between the two of us on the cool floor. He’s even learnt to drink rather delicately from a take away cup when places don’t have a bowl for water.

And finally spending some quiet time with Juno before the puppy gets home at night and when the day has cooled down enough for her to get active again.

Even though I’ll be sad to see summer go, we’ve enjoyed this mild (and sometimes WEIRD) weather but I do look forward to dragging out my boots, socks and coats sometime soon! Hope your summer has been as lovely as ours has been. Kx
