Bronte Beach BBQ Baby Shower

Yesterday, we went to a BBQ baby shower at Bronte Beach (say that five times fast) - for a couple we know who is also expecting. The weather forecast was foreboding, but it actually ended up being a gorgeous day out. Other than the food and some lawn games, there were a few silly shower games, like a water balloon toss and a relay race that involved changing a doll's diaper. I went back and forth from our shaded area and taking dips in the water all afternoon. There's a nice little area that's protected from the waves because it's surrounded by rocks, so that's where I would just go in and float for a few minutes with whichever friend also happened to want to take a dip at the time. Everyone was welcome at the shower (not just the ladies), so Michael spent a lot of the time swimming, playing Spikeball, and this other game that involves throwing small pieces of wood at other pieces of wood (I don't understand why it's a fun game, but whatever). It was a lot of fun, and by the end of the day I was knackered. 

...And yet, somehow not tired enough to sleep all the way through the night - which seems to be the usual these days. I'll wake up at 4AM or so, and not be able to sleep anymore. I thought the baby was supposed to keep you from sleeping after they're born, not before.
