More Sydney Photos and some of Rhys






Here are some photos from Taronga Zoo, a great view of the city from the zoo and from the ferry leaving Sydney.

The photos of Rhys are taken while he was in his highchair on Saturday morning. I'm doing some photography and blogging practice as we are moving to Bendigo on the 30th Dec and I'm going to attempt a weekly blog for the folks at home. So bear with me as I practice.

Sydney Trip





Had an awesome weekend in Sydney with Natasha and Rhys. We flew over on Friday morning and met up with Gayle in the hotel lobby just before lunch and then we were off on a bus to Circular Quay for sightseeing of the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House. Lunch in front of the Opera House. Then off to check out the bats and Ibis birds at the Royal Botanic Gardens.
Dinner at Circular Quay and then some very tired kids back to our 16th floor room at the Travelodge.
Day Two, they promised 28 degrees and they didn't disappoint. Breakkie at the hotel, Catch the 8.45am ferry from Circular Quay to Taronga Zoo where we saw Snakes, Gorillas, A fab bird show, Kangaroos, Koala Bears etc. Great Zoo!!! We spent the afternoon on a harbour cruise in the hot sun and finished the day with a yummy dinner at the Rocks.
Day Three: Bondi has a six floor shopping Mall where I happily parted with the remainder of my money on kids clothes and toys.
We finished our fabulous holiday with a fast flight 2.30 hours with Qantas.

November

November is almost gone and it's time to reflect.
We have decided to sell our house and move to a cheaper place. This one income life is hard to manage.
I am still doing telesales to earn some pocket money and my website is ticking along at www.babytime.co.nz I wish it would make some money.
Healthwise I have gallstones and am awaiting a surgery appt. This is a very painful condition where you actually look forward to the operation.
The kids are all well. Rhys is a growing happy healthy boy and Emily is enjoying Playcentre, I'm enjoying being a playcentre mum also. Tasha is enjoying school and still has the same boyfriend.
Rhys has learned how to roll over and is awaiting his first tooth.
Overall I'm still enjoying being at home but I have some hurdles to jump at present. Roll on next year!!!
