9 Months Old





Been a looooooong time since I posted anything. The days must be getting shorter or something. Jessica has been crawling since Sept 16th (a lovely birthday present for her Daddy), and is now zooming all over the house, chasing Jersey, emptying the pantry and pulling herself up on the TV.
Every day Matt and I comment that she must be the happiest baby on earth; she has the broadest smile ever, and hearing her giggle is the most beautiful sound. She's developing a very strong sense of humour, and is becoming quite adept at letting us know if she's no longer hungry, if she's frustrated, or if we have something she wants!
We took her to the beach (at Cape Patterson) on Sunday afternoon - she wiggled her toes in the sand, splashed in a few rock pools, played with the wiggly slimy seaweed, and even gobbled up some sand! We hope to get back very soon; it's a lovely way to spend a few hours, and Jersey really seems to appreciate the trip also.
Work is very very very busy at present. I find myself working 20+ hours a week, which means that I often feel that I have no time to relax; although I do love playing with Jessica, so that very much counts as rest time!
The attached pics were taken at the beach on Sunday, and this afternoon.

Must try to get back here more often, so much happens every day!
