A laptop is good, but at cat-in-the-hat hat is better!
Now, how hard is it to get two people to smile at the same time? Well if you take enough photos, eventually you will get something special…
Daddy? I’m threatening you… soon I’m going to walk…. all over you!
Just read it Amelia, you don’t have to give me a running commentary.
What company do you work for again? Of course, turn your back and there will be consequences! Now BlueScope needs to start making edible business cards. I sense a niche market opportunity!
Watching her play with the box instead? (And the ANZ Sydney festival wand!)
Ok, I love you too Daddy.
Parents do the worst things. Juanita Phillips was saved by a pressure cooker. Us? By Le Crusette! (And chocolate!!!)
Of course, matching tee shirts means war…
That’s all folks!
Another long hard day at the office for Amelia.
Of course after all that work, a girl has to learn how to use a toothbrush. Never a dull moment.
Have you ever been this excited to be opening a new box of toothbrushes?
Toothbrush? I thought you were giving me a lightsaber!
You mean I have to do this after every meal? Are you serious?
Of course excessive drooling and general fussiness are ment to be the classic signs of teething. But first time around you have no idea that this level of unsettledness is any different. So on the back of an eczema flare up, Amelia decided to pop out a couple of incisors!
Have you ever tried to get a baby to open her mouth on cue?
Finally
All happy now, my face has cleaned up and my teeth hurt less..
It is hard work helping mummy write her grant applications, but she is making good progress…
I helped Daddy make red eggs and toast (documentary evidence is withheld to protect the guilty – what a mess!), and then he surprised me with a nice mini-chocolate bunny. How good is that?
Meanwhile, the hot crossed buns turned out excellently this year. I think the best part about home made ones is you can have as much fruit as you like and they go stale in about 4 hours so there is extra incentive to eat them all at once!
I was getting worried that summery conditions would never end, but then a couple of good autumn storms fixed all of that.
at 6 months, Amelia is becoming a lot more fun, at least from the dad perspective. Of course this is not news to people with their own children, but getting to the stage where she is expressing a personality is way more fun than just the sleep/feed/nappy cycle.
I promise to be good… Really nothing good can come of this:
… ready to groove.
Just hanging at farm cove, getting the grass under my feet.
Water is wet!
I’m a shower baby, and this whole ocean-bath relationship, with unheated water I remind you, is just not on. Seriously.
