    July 8, 2024 in Australia ⋅ 🌬 17 °C

    Matt hired a surfboard so has had a couple of sessions at Point Picquet which is just up the road. The girls and I have enjoyed watching from the bank and playing some games. Rosie has got really good at tracing letters and numbers now. And Poppy has been trying to chew everything she can today... perhaps more teeth coming?
    Yesterday I went for a run along the coast path and past the MTB trail. Such beautiful scenery here. I bet it's amazing when more flowers are out too!
    Poppy had her first bike ride yesterday. Luckily Alan and Wendy have bikes here we can borrow, including a baby bike seat. She absolutely loved it and didn't stop smiling.
    Rosie and I finally had a haircut yesterday, Rosie's first one! Sad to say bye to her baby hairs but we both look less bedraggled now! We went for a swim at the local pool afterwards as it was a rainy day. Rosie did amazingly well and put her face underwater with goggles on several times. Poppy loved kicking her legs and splashing into the water off the side.
    This morning Poppy did her first bit of crawling 🎉 We were all cheering her on. Soon there will be no stopping her!
    Today was also a bit rainy so we went to a place called Wow Illusions which had things like a mirror maze. It was good fun :) Poppy was waving at everyone there!
    After that we had a yummy lunch at Fishbone Wines and then went to a biodynamic vineyard to do a quick tasting. After Matt's surf in the afternoon we went to Bunkers beach, which is a beautiful sandy beach where Matt saw dolphins surfing before. Didn't see them today sadly but Rosie and Matt had fun running about whilst I took Poppy for a walk and cuddles in the sling.
