Time to reflect

Eddie discovering himself in the Brabantia bin in our kitchen!

He is ALMOST crawling...little bunny-hops and swivels are getting him vaguely from A to B, but yesterday I saw a distinct crawling action for about a metre....so I predict nothing will stop him very soon.

9.42kg in weight, Eddie's actually lost a bit this month - maybe all the concerted efforts to move?

For the next 2 weeks he needs some asthma medication for a slight wheeze detected by his doctor...she doesn't think it's permanent...dear little boy.

Eddie and Elizabeth

Here's Eddie with two 'Elizabeths' ...one is 2 months his senior - here they are playing at her place. The other is Liz, his 'Baby Massage' teacher. She also teaches Eddie lots of yoga moves. We go to Baby Massage every Tuesday afternoon.

Time with the Jones family in Port

Being in Port Macquarie in Summer meant Eddie's first time in the ocean...and he liked it! Thankyou Aunty Rach for his first delicate toe dip into the sea. And thanks Grandpa for the view of the areoplane!

It was so great to see Grandpa and Grandma, Aunty Rachel, Aunt Sylvia...and to share our holiday with Megan and the girls too!

We took a picture of the grandparents with all 3 'Jones' grandkids...

Time with the Bosma family in Sydney

Here's Eddie, in early January, getting to know his cousins - Hannah, Leanna, Josh and Nathan - and his Opa. We were all staying in Dave's house - thanks Dave!

Flying to Oz

Soon after our aventures in the United States, Eddie and Anita (without Tom!) flew to Australia for Uncle David's wedding. Here is Eddie making friends on the plane...

He soon invited his new friend, Ian, into his sky cot. It was great to have company on such a long trip!

Christmas In America (T)

From Heathrow to Seattle, via Los Angeles and a drive up America's Pacific Coast...




Merry Christmas!
