Gumnut Flowers.

There are a lot of gumnut trees on one particular road near me.  They are so pretty.  Unfortunately, the lorikeets love them too, and they rip the trees to shreds to get at the blossoms.

Alexandra and Isabella came around this afternoon.  Alexandra has a cold, which she caught from Peter.  Hopefully, Isabella wont get it.  It's not easy being a mum, especially when you've got a very lively baby on your hands.
