Trip to Sydney

















Oh my goodness! What a trip! We had an appointment to meet the immigration officer on Friday at 3pm. We had to take the train to Sydney which takes about 3 hours. We decided to spend the night in Sydney with Nikki, Daniel's mother, so we ended up taking everything with us...including Adeline's bed and car seat...while walking all through Sydney! It was crazy! Everyone was laughing at us and staring as you can see from the picture above...Daniel was loaded down!

The immigration officer laughed when we got there asking us if we were moving in and oh well, you forgot the kitchen sink. Well, Thursday night we realized that part of the train was closed. That meant that we had to transfer off the train to a bus and then back on the train. It was pretty miserable. But Adeline was a beauty! She never cried or whined all day and went until 5pm until she finally fell asleep. We have to best baby!

Anyway, the meeting went very well. After we get a few things in to the officer it will take about one month! That is great considering we thought it was going to take up to 6 months. We were very pleased with the results!

So Saturday was a pretty lazy day. It was Daniel's Aunts birthday so we headed out to her house for a birthday celebration and then we went off to the beach. Sunday, John, Adeline and I went to the beach to try and get Adeline a little more familiar. She did wonderfully! I was so happy, she finally got immersed in the sand without even a whine!
Oh and by the way, here is a picture of the kangaroo and Adeline that I was promising and a picture of Wendy, Johns girlfriend!

I love you all and miss you!
