Babies




Pretty laid back day today... did yoga and had a great breakfast (poached eggs with hummus on rice cakes and roasted tomatoes and chard), then farted around till early afternoon. The three of us then went into the city to shop for a baby gift and troll some op shops. Hillie and Caroline picked out a CUTE fold-able baby blanket for the new great-nephew, and Caroline found an adorable flowery teapot and a pretty blue tea cup and saucer for the teapot she got in Tathra. The streets were packed, especially for a Monday afternoon. I felt very in-the-way. But I did find some more souvenirs, and have an idea of where to go to get more. :)

Back at home we had MEXICAN... nachos with the works, and tea! Plus another episode of Frasier!

Outside we did some yard work, cramming the branches I'd cut from Caroline's trees into the green waste bin. We got an amazing amount in there before noticing the bottom was starting to split. Hee.

That evening was baby night!! We drove into the city to visit Caroline's cousin and three day-old son, James Mathew. As all babies are, he was adorable and stayed sleeping until his parents woke him up for feeding time. The new family was happy and doing great.



Dinner was spaghetti bolognese (spagbog in Australian) with MORE TEA! and MORE BROWNIES! for dessert. And of course, more Frasier. ;)
