As many know I really like to whip out the old slackline when  there is nothing better to do.  For those who don’t know it is just a bit of tape between two trees that you put some tension on and try and walk along it, bit like tight rope walking – but less tight, and more emphasis on the slack, thus the name.

Lara is getting much better at it, and managed the first 6 steps along the line ( NEW RECORD!) , I was having an off day and was not up to much cop, but still fun and what i love about it is that you do have a really good work out swinging your arms all over the place trying to keep balance.

As is the way now – anything we do – Ellis wants to try it.  We were pretty impressed with her, she managed to put one foot in front of the other and walk along the line if we held her hands.  not bad for an 18 month-er!
