Emily's 1st Day of School

Emily thoroughly enjoyed her first day of kindergarten. Jack and I walked the 6 blocks with her to Magnolia, which was the same school I went to for 4 years.



Even Daddy took a few minutes off from work to see her off.

Paige walked with us to pick her up 3hrs and 25 minutes later (Although, both girls were complaining of being tired on the walk home).


Emily likes her new teacher, Mrs Henken.

Happy 1st Birthday Mia!

Shaq Jack

Whassup? This is Shaq Jack. He is the newest member of the IBA (Infant Basketball Association). He joined just 3 months ago and there is already buzz that he will be awarded Rookie of the Year. He is a very proficient dribbler and he is such a crowd pleaser!

Back at Home

Back at home, Jack reunites with cousin Mia.

Saying Goodbye to Grandma's House

Sydney Aquarium

Grandma and Grandpa took Emily and Paige into the city via train to visit the aquarium and give Mommy and Daddy time to pack. They had a great time!

Luna Park

Here, we went to Luna Park with some friends. We took a ferry down to Sydney and the walked across the Harbor Bridge. Needless to say, Paige's little legs got tired very fast and she had to be carried. It was a cold winter day, but that didn't stop us from getting gelato. Unfortunately, we had to catch our ferry with ice cream still in hand...Brrrrr! Still, we had a fun, adventuresome day!
