Blue Mountains National Park trip - 26th April

We decided to go up to the mountains to look at the autumn leaves. It is always beautiful around this time as you can see a marked distinction between summer and autumn. We went to The Three Sisters and had lunch up in the mountains.

April 2008

Our little Adele is 13 months old. She is still very happy to crawl around and cruise around furniture. We had another birthday party for Adele. This is 3 parties in total! We also had a long weekend (Anzac Day holiday). We decided to go up to the mountains. We also went to Kurringah National Park (this park is only 15 minutes from our home and we always like to take Adele there as it has a mangrove boardwalk and waterways.

Andrew met all the mums and dads for the first time. Angela made a birthday cake for the bubs. There is a few pictures of the big day on the slideshow.

Taronga Zoo Sydney - 30 March 2008

We took Adele to Taronga Zoo for her birthday present from mummy and daddy. She loved looking at the monkeys, giraffes, zebras and elephants. But she especially loved the chairlifts that were moving above in the sky.

Giraffes, the Sydney Harbour and skyline in the background.

Adele thinks this is a real giraffe!! She was so excited.

March 2008

We have birthday parties galore in the month March. This was a busy and stressful month. Organising parties can be a great ordeal. We also saw Adele rolling, walking on the walker and waving for the first time. Here are a few shots of Adele during the months of March.

We bought a new lounge. This is the day when the lounge arrived. Adele wanted to test out the bouncing and climbing quality. It passed all bouncing checks!

Look everyone, I am drinking all on my own!

Yeh! I love my new bib!

Look who's walking on her walker! - 24 March 2008

When we got home after the party, Adele decided to surprise us by walking on her pusher toy for the first time. We have been waiting for this moment for many weeks. I think she was prompted to walk after seeing many of the other bubs walking at the party. She just stood up and away she went. Enjoy the movie!
