Dad snuck a photo of Mum and Alex sleeping last night. Usually Alex sleeps in the middle but the last few nights Alex has wanted to stay awake so it's been a challenge to find what does the trick for her to fall asleep. Sleeping on Mums shoulder seemed to work.

Alex went only to the morning swim today and followed that up with a 3+hr nap so she missed the 11.00am swim. Later in the afternoon Alex received a parcel in the mail. Her first, 1st birthday present. It was from Carolyn who is away in New Mexico running a desert Marathon.

Inside the package was a nice Stanford Tee Shirt and then a nice Jumper with Stanford Swimming on. Alex liked them so much she tried to put them on herself.

She played with them for quite a while. They are a little too big to wear now or else Alex would have worn them on Monday, Her 1st Birthday. Thanks Carolyn!
