Church #36

You can see on Alexis' forehead that she attacked herself with her nails. Also she bumped her head on something (I can't remember what).



It was a long Sunday.  And we had a very tired baby.

Castle Hill

We climbed up Castle Hill this morning.  Normally John and I walk up the road and push Alexis in the stroller.  This morning Christina and I hiked up the goat track with Alexis on Christina's back.  A lot of the track is stairs.  Christina climbed up all of them without stopping (with Alexis on her back), while I was just carrying water and I had to stop twice.  It was a nice reminder that I need to get into better shape.

















We rewarded ourselves by going out to a nice, healthy breakfast at Gregory Bites, a cafe by the Strand.

Tooth #4

Upper left central incisor.

Water Park

Today Christina and I took Alexis to the water park at the Strand.  I figured that Alexis was big enough to have some fun there since she can crawl around now and she loves water.

Alexis had a ton of fun playing in the fountains with Auntie.

It was so cute to see Alexis crawl back and forth through the water.
The water park was so much fun we will definitely be coming back regularly during the summer.

Cutest Baby


I know that I'm biased, but I have the cutest baby in the world.

Sydney

Yeah for a girls weekend in Sydney!  Before my mom went home we flew down to Sydney for the weekend and Christina flew in from the States.  We had fun exploring Circular Quay, The Rocks and the Botanic Gardens.  And of course we had a shopping day!


My mom flew home and we still had one more day so we went to Manly Beach.  Since it's winter it was too cold to actually go to the beach, but we had fun exploring the area.  And it's always fun to take a ferry around Sydney Harbour.

Rossiter Park

We had a few hours to spare today so we went to Rossiter Park on the Ross River by our house.  Alexis had fun on the swings of course.  She also went down the slide and had fun exploring some of the other toys.

We walked down to the river and Alexis just could not hold still.  She kept reaching for the water, so we took her shoes off and let her put her feet in.  She did not want to leave.
