I Graduated!!

I'm still in the Baby Bears class at swim lessons but my teacher said I spend so much time under the water now that I get to wear goggles . . . or "gaggles" as I call them! I have also been practicing with my gaggles in the bath tub. I had swimming lessons everyday for a week last week so I improved on alot of my skills.

I had another busy "Evan" weekend last weekend too. On Saturday we went to Rocks Riverside Park, right by our house, because they turned on the water play park. Because of the drought there hadn't been any water since we arrived in Brisbane but since it has rained so much lately they decided to turn the water on for a few days each week. The pools are just my size and lots of fun . . . and it's only minutes away from our house!

On Sunday we went into downtown Brisbane to the Queen Street Mall stage and I got to see a Dora the Explorer performance. Mom put alot of Dora pictures in my slideshow because we knew that my friends at Kimmy's House in Moline would think it was cool that I got to meet Dora AND Boots. There was also a Dora treasure hunt maze that I got to climb through (several times) before the Dora show began. I had alot of fun!

We are still in school holiday time (summer) here in Australia so there isn't alot to do for us right now, especially when it rains and we can't go to the park, playgrounds, and pools. Kiah School starts again next week and playgroup will start up in another couple of weeks so I'm looking forward to things returning to normal!
