Sophie and Jessie both enjoy Disney show on the weekend

We took Jessie and Sophie to the Disney show at the entertainment centre at Darling Harbour on Sunday. We didn’t tell them where we were going other than out. We did think that Jessie might twig to where when both of the girls were wearing their Minnie Mouse outfits and I was wearing a Mickey Mouse shirt.

We even saw one of Jessie’s daycare friends Sarah in the carpark and Sarah was telling Jessie of the great show she had just seen.

The show was good and we had a look around the markets afterwards as well.

I think Sophie wins for the best isle dancer for her efforts during the show.

A fun start to Sunday

Sophie woke up around 6ish with her now usual cry out for one of us, so I went in and hugged her and put her back down. Turned off the bathroom light that Jessie had left on and found her hiding in the lounge room and told her to go back to bed.

Then about 10 minutes later Sophie cryed out again, this time with a very different and distressed cry, so Karla went to see her this time. Kara then called me in to the room as well as Sophie had been sick over herself and the bed. So we cleaned her up and changed her bed sheets, checked her temperature and asked her if she wanted to go back to bed, she said, “Yeah”. So we put her down again.

About 30 minutes later another cry like before and more vomit, so another round of cleaning and this time we brought her in to our bed. She was happy and found poking us amusing. This was until she went to cuddle Karla and spewed again. More cleaning, clothes, sniffy number 3 to the wash.

Jessie had decided that she was not getting the attention she deserved and decided to join in and advise us that breakfast was needed as she was “Starving”. So up we got and I made some porridge, with no milk for Sophie.

We were suppose to go to swiming lessions this morning but that wasn’t happening.

Sophie seemed happy enough but did look tired after breakfast, but both Sophie and Jessie needed a bath, so Jessie first then Sophie after her. Sophie ended up having a cuddle in bed with Karla after her bath and we had been giving her water and hydrolite as well. I had also jumped on the bed for a quick cuddle before putting Sophie back to bed.

After a little while I started carrying Sophie to her bed room and of course another lot of spewing, over me and all over her. This time we both heading in to Karla’s shower, as I was covered and so was Sophie. So a quick shower was in order and more clothes to be washed. (I may or may not have helped the spewage here as I may have squeshed her to much while carrying her to her room.)

Anyway, Karla and Jessie are off at Blocks to buy some dancing stuff and I am here with Sophie, so fare no more vomiting and she has been watching Tangled and now Hi5, which is her favourite music group.

 

 

New Photo’s in the Gallery using the Nikon D90

I got a new camera as an early Christmas present a few months ago. The camera is the Nikon D90, which is a nice digital SLR. At the time I got the camera body and two lenses, the 18-55mm VR and the 55-200mm VR, both a nice kit lenses.

For Christmas I picked up another lense, which was the 70-300mm for only $149 while looking for a bigger camera bag. (Couldn’t pass it up)

Anyway been taking heaps of pictures and you can find these in the gallery if you are interested. I just have to learn how to use it now along with processing the raw image files as well.
