Up, up and stop

On Sunday it was the end of March and therefore the end of the March Photo Scavenger Hunt. While I didn't participate, I enjoyed watching everyone's photos being posted each day. James enjoyed playing the hunt and ended up coming 8th place which was very impressive as he wasn't in the top 10 for about half the hunt. The last day had a picnic where you could take a photo at the picnic for 70 points. We decided to tag along with James for the adventure which saw Daniel have his first train trip.

Very inquisitive about all that was on the train

Daniel enjoyed looking around and was very sensible and settled for the trip. He happily sat on our laps for the journey. We met a nice family from America who were very taken by Daniel and how cute and sensible he was. 

The picnic was at Milsons Point and it was a lovely time. The Howies were there as well as some other scav hunters and it was nice to chat with some people who I have known for ages but never really spoken to. Daniel enjoyed crawling around on the picnic mat and then hanging out on the grass. It was his first time of properly seeing the Harbour Bridge and the Opera House but he wasn't very interested in it. I can't wait until Daniel will take in the surroundings and we could do a city adventure. 

He loves waving at people

Oscar enjoys running in circles around Daniel and then falling down

Daniel finds it so funny when Oscar falls down and Oscar enjoys Daniel laughing at him

He was then very good and slept for the train trip back home.

Yesterday while we were hanging out in the back room I noticed that Daniel was trying to pull himself up on the toy basket. He was pretty proud of himself too. He was only able to get up onto his knees but that was a pretty good effort for a first go.

I guess it won't be very long until he is pulling himself up on things - although today he showed no interest in pulling himself up today.
