Merry Christmas part one

Here is bonus photograph of SV sitting on Santa's lap, sort of. It's a composition photograph by our friend Ron. Thanks Ron! It's our Christmas Eve and we are sending out Christmas Greetings to everyone!

Into the distance

Laying on the bed in a contemplative mood, SV waits while we pick out a clean outfit for her. She was enjoying naked time but had some things she needed to ponder.

Too cute indeed

We were quite busy around the house so we propped SV into a sitting position on the couch so we could get everything done. She certainly entertained herself quite well, but she was just too captivating not to take photographs of her. In the end we she proved to be too much of a distraction and played with her for a while.

At the airport

Grandma CeCe just before she flew back to CA. She had one more cuddle before her flight.

Chating up a storm

SV talking to Grandma CeCe before passing out for a nap. The monkey bib came in handy to save her nice new dress from a vomit.

On the way out

On the way out of the house the three ladies paused for a photograph in the warm light.

Martin Place Christmas tree

We had a nice stroll to the Martin Place Christmas tree for a few photographs. The weather wasn't the greatest but we made the most of it.

At Ikea

A quick bonus post because SV just looks so happy. Last night we went to ikea and stopped in the parents room because someone needed a diaper change and a snack. They had mobiles hanging over the change tables and SV really liked them.

At Sunday lunch

We all got the degustation menu (a 8 course set meal) which took us about 4 hours to eat. It was really artfully presented and accompanied by some very dramatic weather changes. SV had a two course meal herself and was generally very well behaved.

Out to lunch

Last Sunday we went out to have a nice meal at a restaurant on the Sydney Harbour called Sails. These were taken on the way there or out in front of the restaurant.
