Swinging at the fair

At the fair Aug 26th






Cliona was much more adventurous than I imagined. After our elephant ride she was eager to go it alone. She loved going down the slide with Stephen and going on the swings all by herself. She gave the swing ride operator her three tickets, marched right up to the swing she wanted and let the ride operator lift her up and strap her in. Then she was off - up, up and away!




















Clio and her Aunt Dana

We all loved having Dana stay with us - Clio really liked getting to cuddle with her at bedtime.








Waking up and having Aunt Dana in the house was such a treat for Clio. She really got a kick out of 'helping' Dana get ready in the morning. She was fasinated with Dana's make-up and loved her job of brush holder.

In the 'new' house






Well, we've been here a week and things are still unpacked, we still don't have TV or a phone but in general everything is going really well. Clio loves her new pink room, we baked a cake to wish the 'new' house a happy birthday. Roxy loves the back garden, she doesn't know what to do with the space. We just set up a ping-pong table, Stephen won the first game - stay tuned for live ping-pong action!!


2806 Mc Bain Ave, Redondo Beach, CA, 90278





That's the new address. We were really fortunate that the house was empty during escrow and so we got to visit with Clio quite a lot before we moved in. So by the time we were ready to move she already knew which room was to be hers, knew it was going to be pink and knew she was going to have a Dora bed!

We Moved!

To a lovely little beach house in Redondo Beach. We still have a spare room so please visit us!!
Here's some pictures of before - we had a fence put up, some painting done and knocked out a closet before moving in.
