Happy Birthday Weekend
Knowing that we had an early start on Monday, we decided to spread Anna's birthday over the weekend. So, after lunch on Saturday, we headed into the City to visit David Jones - one of Anna's favourite stores - and get a specially chocolate-y cake from their Foodhall. Being a big store, they have a fully-equipped parents room which means that there is no problem feeding Caitlin there etc.
Back home for a quick change, then out to Doyles restaurant for some great seafood - unfortunately, Caitlin was a little unsettled so we spent some time taking turns placating her, but had an enjoyable meal nonetheless.
Sunday, Anna got to open her presents including a beach bag & mat from Nana & Grandpa Staines, a watch, camera & book from me and an SD memory card from Caitlin. Anna's old digital camera had been on its last legs for a while, and the new one allows us to take some videos for people to see how Caitlin is progressing - so, now's the time to upgrade to broadband!

Happy Birthday Anna.
Thanks for the Thank you card which arrived last week.
Sorry we didn't get time to send you a Birthday card but we were all on trying to organise my 40th Birthday bash at the weekend.
We had glorious weather 30 degrees in the end but it was touch and go in the morning as it was cloudy and cool.....Ash was a worried man because we put the party back a week so that they could attend.
All the best.
Love
Gray
