...is 10 days old today. It has gone so fast!
He arrived just in time to meet his grandparents - born on Friday 2nd and Mum and Dad left to head back to Thailand via Perth on Saturday, so they got a few cuddles in - see below.
So far he has been a very contented little man. We have been doing OK too, aided by lots of visits from friends and the previously unknown-to-us Aussie tradition of bringing food round for the new parents. We have now sampled all of our local friends' baking & cooking and I think we only cooked one meal in the first week! Even now we are sitting on 4 chocolate brownies, a quiche (in the freezer due to surfeit of donated food!) and a zucchini (er, courgette) bake.
Never being ones to sit still we are in the final stages of buying a new house (sorry to those reaching for the pen to cross out another entry in the address book). We move on 12th Feb - hopefully that is enough time to sort it all out as that's when we need to leave this house!
The new place is on a nice quiet road, and it is a better proportioned house with lots of potential. We know we love it here in Williamstown so we are hoping that this will be our final move for a while - our family house where the two of them can grow up and go to school..Wow, that feels very strange to say that!
Just thought you might like to see that despite the new arrival Maddie still knows how to show off and capture the camera!
That's all for now, more posts soon as I document the chaos of moving house with a 6-week old baby!
