The baby swing!

Going for another car ride today, a quick visit to the city- so to help prepare, I was fed, changed, and put in my swingset (on lowest speed).

Feed me!

Just a quick video - People keep trying to take a video of me when all I want to do it Eat! Eat! Eat!

Me & my scratch mittens

Right - I've got another 5 days before Dad has to go to work for 'the Man' - so after that I'm sure the baby photos e-mails will slow down!

Todays feature includes 'Scratch mittens' and a 'Scruffy Dad' special!

Big day out!

Well, been a busy 2 days for the young one.

Midwife visited on Monday to take his weight, and give him a quick once over - he passed, although not putting on enough weight. But we aren't too concerned, as we can both see a remarkable improvement in both his eating habits, and the amount of 'awake' time he is getting - and what he does with the awake time - stare at whatever is in front of his face.

The midwife suggested feeding him solely in his diaper - which we have begun - and hence the mostly naked baby photos.

Plus he went for a car ride this morning (See below) - just a quick trip into town! Not sure how he can be comfy in the car set - but he slept like a log both ways - so can't be too rough on him

Waking Time

Going to try and keep all the videos and baby photos together in a new blow - Aaron Down Under - this will leave Dad's blog free to keep writing & photographing South Australia & Adelaide.


Anyway, I hope this video works! (otherwise it will be youtube for us!)


Welcome world - Week 1





The Last night out before baby

Well, unbeknown to us at the time - this was going to be our last night out before we were parents. It was a night of Comedy - Rich Hall / Otis Lee Crenshaw was playing at the adeliade fringe - and we had seen him before - both live and on TV

Below is the last photo of Lyn before Aaron was born on Sunday 15/3/09




Things are a bit hectic with the newborn at the moment, but bear with us - Baby photos are coming!

Slack-o-blog!

No excuses! I've been slack in the blogging department. Its not that we aren't doing anything.. we are!

But its not always the most photogenic... (did you really want a photo diary of our trip to Toys'R'us looking at baby gear?) I didn't think so.

Anyway, we've got a good chunk on the basics sorted, so if young boris/doris should spring upon this world early, we'd be prepared.

Now i know some of you (mom!) are worried when I mentioned a 'nautical' theme to the baby gear - so in order to allay peoples fears, I've asked Charles to model a few of the baby items.

First up, you can see Charles in the baby bath -with a few starfish and other cartoon fish


Next up - a plain baby pram - no fish!



And then a change table -with a few cartoon fish.



So - its not nearly as Jacques Cousteau as it sounds on the phone.

I've got a few other pieces of baby furniture to show - but there was a slight mismeasurement with the shelves, so I need to re-glue and re-paint a few bits!

Till next time!
