Welcome to the world James Benjamin George!!

Well after a long 9 mth wait and then being 2 weeks late, James was finally born via caesarian section on the 18th October at 12:14pm weighing a VERY healthy 10 pounds and measuring 54cms!!

We are so happy to finally have our little boy in our arms and are so glad he is healthy and there were no complications with the surgery!! Isabelle just loves her little brother too which is so nice to see!

Waiting!

Our little man is one week overdue today.... it's so hard to wait and be patient when we just want to meet this little one....

I had a scan yesteday and saw him waving his little hands near his face like his sister did and his mouth swallowing which was just amazing!

Isabelle is just a gorgeous treasure - growing so fast. She managed to draw all over a cream coloured chair the other day with a purple biro...My fault for leaving the pen out. She has loved having Al home early each day because they play and go for nice long walks to the park! I love my gorgeous family - they are keeping me sane til 3 become 4!!

Things are a movin'.....!!!!!

Well I had acupuncture on Thursday and then my stretch class on Thursday night. This was followed by period like cramps and pain in my back all night long and during Friday it was stll pretty bad so I had to get Al to give me a massage! It eased right off by last night but then last night and this morning I lost my plug!

I know it could still be a few weeks but I am just so happy that my body is doing something and having had no pre-labour with Isabelle it is really exciting!

Can't wait to meet you little guy!!

On the swing!

Isabelle loved being on the swing and giggled the whole time but was easily distracted by birds flying past! Our girl just loves animals and being outside is her favorite thing! I can't wait to move so that we have a nice kid friendly yard that she can run around in, ride her bike, play on her swing and in her cubby etc... Until then the search for the perfect playground is on!

The search for the perfect playground!

At Hays Paddock in Kew!

Lovely kisses with Daddy at Hays Paddock!

Al, Isabelle and I have been exploring lots of great playgrounds in the area lately. The weather has been gorgeous and our yard isn't very Izzy friendly so parks it is!!

Hays Paddock in Kew was fanastic - a little far for a quick pop in but just wonderful! We also have a few great wones just nearby here at East Burwood reserve.

Loving the swim!

Iz was quite happy to just play with the tan bark really - easily pleased child!

On the BIG slide with daddy!

Broccoli!

MMMMmmmmmmmm I LOVE broccoli - especially when it is organic and freshly grown by Nana!

Daddy's birthday and my first Baby Cino!!...

Happy 32nd Birthday Al!!!!


We had a great day at Caldermeade Farm, with Ian, Aiko, Dan and Bianca!! Isabelle had her first baby cino and you will see from the pics that she thought the froth was amazing! She also got to pat and play with some baby calves, goats and sheep! I think Isabelle and Al both had a fantastic time! As well as the rest of us of course!
