What a fun first Christmas for Page. We opened our pressies on OZ time with Grandma and Grandpa Gibson. Lots of great gifts and Page seemed to enjoy ripping open the presents (and eating the wrapping paper). Thank you all for thinking of us, we hope you have a wonderful Holiday. We are hoping to get up to snow so we can use our presents, new skate skis, ski chariot, warm ski clothes for Page to ride in the Chariot while Mum pulls her, and lots more. Lots of Love and Best Wishes for the New Year! xoxo. Alex, Brendan and Page.

Most babies in Palo Alto are at least passably familiar with the works of Mondrian, Klee, Lichtenstein, Picasso, and Matisse by the time they are four months old. As we felt that our little pumpkin had some catching-up to do, we took her up to the city to visit the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

First, lunch at Francis Ford Coppola’s Café Zoetrope.

Page pondering the future meaning behind Paul Klee’s Engel bringt das Gewünschte. (with help from Mum, of course)

Page considered this to be her favourite piece.

We found the best pub in Mill Valley! Page had fun hanging with the big kids, too.

Its hard to believe that its been 4 months already. Everyday is a new adventure. Page has been talking so much, lots of little drool added into her conversations. I tend to have a burp rag in one hand at all times just trying to keep up with it. She is on the move constantly. It won’t be long now before she is crawling around. She has a feisty personality, so sweet, curious and active. We have our work cut out for us in the months ahead, but it is oh-so-fun!
