A Quiet Day..........

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight" Proverbs 3:5&6

We really do not have too much to post this evening since our day was a quiet one, that was based around the hotel complex. We were all tired after yesterday's safari excitement. In fact Gabriella slept for 2.5hours this afternoon and is away to bed early this evening as well.

We went to the park late this morning but returned early...a mixture of experiencing a tearful and tired Gabriella and the extreme heat / humdity. We had an early tea in Lucy's diner and then returned to the hotel so that Gabriella could have her daily bath (which she now loves) and some play time in the play room. That was a giggle since Gabriella has progressed in one week from a little girl who refused to put her feet on the ground to a little girl who is now growing in her walking confidence - tonight she even tried to run the toy hoover over the carpet....training her up early lol!!!

What a difference a week has made!

On a personal note, whilst we are not able to actually see our blog we are getting the personal messages sent to us by email - thank you so much. We just love waking in the morning and reading those posts and we are so appreciative of the ongoing prayers, love and support especially since we are so far away from you all.

Much love
Caroline, Stephen & Gabriella

 
We have to go all the way down there!!

 
An uncertain 'wheeeeee'

 
I like to wave (alot!)

  1. Hi there..... didn't get to see yesterday's blog until now...looks like you had an amazing day...photos are fantastic. I'm sure you were glad of a somewhat "quieter" day today...you definitely need one of those now and again. You all continue to look really well and it's just wonderful to see Gabriella progressing in every way day by day. Not long now until we get to see her for real....(and mummy and daddy too of course :) )EXCITED !!!!!!! lots of love from us all

  2. When you get home and see your blog you will be very impressed! Dawn has done a great job and it is just amazing to see every stage of your early days as a family. It will be a lovely record for Gabriella too. Her personality is really starting to show in the pictures but the most obvious thing is how very, very happy you both look. You are naturals at this parenting thing. Keep smiling. See you soon. Karen x
