When my partner Charles and I were looking for a place to call home, we searched and searched for a long time. But then we finally realised that a University is a pretty darn good place for a kid to grow up, and here we are.
Over at the University there is usually something happening to fascinate a little kid - and her nerdy mama, too! Adelaide absolutely loves going there, so every few days we usually wander on in for some exploring.
For it is full of gardens and sculptures, ponds and courtyards, slopes and stairs and waterfalls and forests and fields. Libraries and laboratories, swimming pools and gymnasiums, cafes and coffee shops and bookshops, on and on. We could wander on forever and usually find something interesting to explore... to Adelaide, this place is one big playground!
But to me, the very best thing of all is that there are very few cars (or none at all). So I can relax and just let her run free and wild like the crazy kid she is and should be. And everyday I am so grateful just for this one thing.

She is just the sweetest thing ever. How blessed you are to have a little one as cute as her!
Great choice! Your University is by far one of the most fascinating places that I've seen. I visited the campus last year with my husband's uncle, who built many of its awesome concrete structures. It must be a great place to study at, and grow up in! Wishing you all the best!

That is good househunting advice for anyone! We got overwhelmed by how big our new city is, but knew that if we lived by a university, we'd find our kind of people and have a big green campus to walk through like you do.
I bet people love seeing Adelaide there too!
The bumpy red hat is so adorable with that dress.
Oh she is amazing. Such a big girl now! How excellent all around!
Adelaide is unbelievably cute!!

It sounds like a great place to be! I have a friend from University (here in Scotland) who is now a lecturer in the geography department at Simon Fraser - it's nice to be able to see a little of where he is at!

I know you must have heard this thousands of times, but still, I can't help but to say it again: She is so cute!
Little red Riding Hood - she's so pretty
Isn't that where the museum of anthropology is?
I remember thinking what a lovely place it was when we went there. Very green.
