On a late December morning...

We awoke to another hot day here Down Under, so what better way to start the day than in the pool?


Wet suits are so cute on a tiny person.


Markus rigged up the outdoor shower to rinse off the pool water. Stephanie loves standing under it. Here she is trying to watch the water pour from her hair...


Happy Sunday, everyone!

Yesterday was the first day Baby Stephanie decided she had no residual fear about the pool. She even worked herself up to (repeatedly) jumping from the side into Papa's arms, after which she will proudly announce in perfect Dinglish, "I schwimmt!". She had a blast! Ellie, ever the water baby, was ready to show her how it should be done.
