Yesterday Lexie went to the races for the first time! Well second time if you count in utero. It was family day and the final day of the Spring Racing Carnival here in Melbourne. Kids are everywhere and it is in general a nice day to go. We had a bit of drama getting there, sent to the wrong side of the track, made to park in a paddock and expected to weave our way through thousands to get back to the right side of the track. One hissy fit later and I was driving back to the members carpark with my hazards on. As I was putting Lexie in the car she clearly knew I was distressed, she put her hand onto my cheek and giggled at me - what could I do but give my girl a hug, she is so sensitive! Finally we arrived at the Nursery meeting the gorgeous Neroli and lovely Mike at the gates. There was nothing but cuddles and attention for Lexie and she was in 7th heaven. Kimba had outdone herself again in providing a marquee with the best. By 4pm it was time to head home, Lexie was done and dusted for the day and in bed and fast asleep before I could say dinner, bath, book, bed!Saturday, November 8, 2008
