we wanted to take lachlan to the beach while we were on holidays over christmas, but the weather wasn't very cooperative so instead, we did a quick run into southbank on monday while it was clear for a couple of days. lachlan had no qualms about hitting the sand and water and happily made sandcastles (mostly into the water) and splashed around. he played for over an hour before i decided it was getting too hot and too crowded and we left to go find some lunch. i know where we'll be on fine weekends during the next couple of months!
