Sophie's First Birthday

Sophie had a ball! It was such a lovely day, and it was so nice to have everyone over to celebrate for her. We were all shattered afterwards, Soph was asleep before I had done the grow bag up and Trav and I were out by 9pm. 

Was a really cool day, but glad we only have to do it twice a year!

Our 2 Children

Yes, bub number 2 is on the way, due end of August. There will be around 16 months between Sophie and Newbie and no, we won't be finding out what colour to buy before bub arrives. 

We are very excited about our new addition and can't believe how quickly time is flying by!

She talks!

And who is her favourite? 

What else but more Sophie...

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 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.

Not sure about being interrupted by the photographer.

These two are born one day apart.
