Cyclone Sophie

Sophie is now 7 months old and into everything! She has learnt to commando crawl and goes directly past her clean safe toys and heads for anything not child-friendly - eg. the dogs waterbowl, electrical cables, guitars, rubbish bins, shoes etc.  So we have nicknamed her Cyclone Sophie. 


We had a week with Travis' family in WA in November and she had a great time with the family over there.  She had her first trip to the beach while we were there. 


We are looking forward to her first trip to New Zealand next week for her first Christmas.

Sophie's first day at the beach

Sophie 4 Months

She continues to amaze us! It feels like Sophie is growing up so fast - check out her new skills "talking", holding things in her hands and jumping in her jolly jumper.

4 Months and Counting...

Not sure about being interrupted by the photographer.

Loving tummy time on Dad.

First time in the Jolly Jumper.

Sophie playing hard to get from Wilkie.

These two are born one day apart.

Smiling little princess

Our little princess is really growing up fast. It seems like an eternity ago that she was born but only 9 weeks from when our lives changed forever. It's really hard to imagine our life without her now. How quickly things change.

Grandparents from New Zealand....

2 months old and Sophie has had her first visit from her kiwi grandparents. It was a great week, lots of great weather, lots of laughs, cuddles and of course more beautiful photos - she is even smiling in some!

She now weighs 3.6 kilos, has graduated from 5 zeros up to 4 zeros and is getting more adorable every day.

 

Sophie Victoria... 3 weeks early & 3 weeks on...

Sophie Victoria March arrived on Saturday the 7th of May @ 3:12am, weighing 2.36kg / 5'2" and measuring 47cm.

The birth was a dream birth from my point of view, I am sure Natarsha will have a different account of the nights events.

It is 3 weeks on, and we are very quickly learning to be parents.

We are currently on 3 hourly feeds which doesn't allow much time between feeding, changing nappies and sleeping but we are adapting and getting used to being parents.

Here is a video and a few photos of our gorgeous girl.

Local Creek

We visited our local creek for an afternoon in the Sun. I think the creek is Baxter's favourite spot, he absolutely loves it. 

The Countdown

May is here which means our baby will be here this month! We can't wait to introduce you all to the little one.

The Bump @ Easter

Dad having a few words to the little one already...

New Camera

We have got a new camera in time for the arrival of the little March. We purchased a Canon 550D, with a couple of lenses to hopefully help our photography skills improve. 

Here are a few examples of our dog...

Six Weeks And Counting....

We have six weeks until our lives change forever.

In six weeks we have a little bundle of joy joining our family & I can't wait!

The First Post...

The first post of the March's blog site.

I am sure this will provide a location for Natarsha and I to keep the family up-to date. I am also hoping this can be a location for Natarsha to vent.....
