We are currently house-sitting in the lower Blue Mountains and decided we'd better do some sight-seeing while we are here!!! We walked for 1 1/2 hours and saw 4 beautiful waterfalls!!! Plenty of water after all the rain too...
We went for a beautiful walk along the cliff tops from Bronte to Bondi on a glorious sunny Sydney Saturday (no we are not trying to make non-sydney-siders jealous...but do come visit more!!). Cal enjoyed being in his new backpack (thanks ebay!) and he even had a sleep in there - wow that was unexpected!! Another beautiful day enjoying God's great creation.
Hey I'm a big boy now so I face forward in my car seat - and I love it!! Mum reckons it will stop me from sleeping in the car because there is so much to see, but i say "bah hum bug to sleep!!". I'm almost 8 months old - gee when did that happen!
Mel, Deb, Cal and Kate went for trip to Balmoral Beach on Friday and it was great!! It was lovely to catch up with Mel and bask in the spring sun - how delightful!! Sadly the wind deterred us from swimming (opps what happened to 'you never regret a swim!') but we enjoyed fish & chips and a walk and then a pizza dinner -YUM all in all a great day - thanks guys.
Bek Earnshaw and Deb Earnshaw (A last name so good that everyone has it!) came over the other day to tackle Alfred the puppet that has been in bits in our lounge room since last Dec! I've been meaning to make Alfred the puppet for a year so it was great to have some other keen puppet makers to do it with. The two charming fellows that appear in the photo are Bek's puppets that she made previously (very cool!!) - so no we wern't amazing productive... The slightly less puppet looking creature in the back of the photo (no not Deb the one without eyes...) is Deb's puppet to be - hmm still a bit of work to be done, we'll keep you updated... hopefully before Dec 2008
Wahoo to holidays, yipee to sunny days, hooray to lots of yummy food, zippity pow wow to the Courtney O'Connors!!! Thanks to Blair and Kate for our great holiday down in Mollymook - we'll have to do it again because we only ate 1kg of butter and 3 dozen eggs, i think we can do better next time!! 10 points to the poo holiday!!!
We recently went camping up north at putty beach in Boudi National Park. It actually rained quite a bit but we still had fun. Caleb enjoyed being in the baby backpack we borrowed - which was a lot easier than taking the pram! We think we might get one and go hiking up Mt Everest - or somewhere at least...
It's been a while since we've posted anything on here - sorry to all our fans!! Caleb now has his own chair and loves sitting up. He's getting used to eating some solids, now that we realised we need to heat them up for him. Fussy boy!!! He can pretty much sit by himself now and play - although he often reaches out too far when a toy rolls away from him and topples over - or topples into our arms at least...
