Our 2008 Christmas Card Portraits

Jared and Emmy posing for our 2008 Christmas photos...aged 3.5 and 4.5 years...

Christmas Shopping in the city...

We loved going in to see all of the Christmas displays in the big Sydney department stores...Jared and Em especially loved riding on the Myer Christmas train!

Wildlife World - October - 2008

In the holidays we went to Wildlife World at Darling Harbour...the kids especially loved the snakes and the butterflies! We had lunch just above the kangaroo enclosure - near the koalas and went to the Lindt Cafe at Cockle Bay for afternoon tea - see the cakes up close on our food blog!

Photos in Macarthur Park

Jared and Emmy were quite keen to have their photos taken in Macarthur Park so that Mummy could try out the new camera...we had wedding photos taken here too...

Swimming Lessons - Take 3!

It seems that the run of ear infections has finally come to an end!!! So we have decided to try swimming lessons again - Jared and Em love Jodie, their swimming teacher and look forward to going each week...

Emmy and Jared

Jared loves playing with his Duplo at the moment - he is always building unusual methods of transportation....Em loves to dress up - she picked this outfit out herself - insisting on wearing all the accessories she could find!!

Wiggles World

We took Daddy's Toyota on it's first trip across to Seven Hills so that we could visit Wiggles World - the kids had a fantastic time. They have named the car 'Edward' after a favourite toy train!!

Jared and Emmy in their pjs...

Jared and Emmy love their Oliver bear...they had weekly photos with him until they turned one...

Happy Birthday, Grandma!

For Grandma's Birthday this year we made a four layer 'Old Fashioned Chocolate Layer Cake' with a fudge frosting and little pink roses...Emmy helped Grandma blow out her candles...

Favourite Photos from July, 2008

I't really cold here at the moment - so cold that the kids aren't very interested in playing outside (amazingly)...they prefer to annoy each other inside!
