Week 1 - Welcome to the fold, when 2 become 3.

Home from the hospital, do these 0000's look huge on me?



First bath, not a smashing success, but it gets better.

Ahhhh bed.


Smoothing out now.

It's hard being new.

Tired Pappa!

Already couch chilling.

Classic Gabe pose.


Good sleeper.

All dressed at 7 days, off to meet our Doctor.


It's hard to fill out new born clothing.

Ahhh the end of a hard day out shopping, chilling on the couch.

Week 2 - getting to know you.

Week - 3, sooo cute!

Daddy playing with my camera. Trying to be artistic!

Well 3 weeks, who'd of thought it would be a whirlwind ride. He is a great little bub, sleeps so well, feeds well. Who could ask for more?  Just trying to soak up every moment with him.



Ok Just going camera mad here. Enjoy the pictures.











Such the cutie! He's being very chatty with me here.














We had visitors this week. Grammie (Garreth's mum) and Great Grandma (Nanna). Poor Garreth had to fight for his share of cuddles between them all. I just enjoyed being able to sort some boxes out as Gabe had all the cuddles he needed.


Cuddles with Nanna

Week 4 -

Week 5 - Townsville trip & car hunting...


Tired duo in Townsville just waiting to go home.

Well Anna had some time to come visit us from her lofty mountain home. The weather was overcast and raining most of the time, but we still enjoyed ourselves. We decided to check out Airlie Beach with Gabe in tow.

Kids eat free.... First Hoggies experience!

Anna's visit, how we spent a rainy day. Airlie Beach

All rugged up for another rainy, cold day.

Yup, getting sleepy already.

After a hard morning talking.


Week 6 - the start of non stop smiles


Beautiful morning stories.



In depth conversation.





Gabe 6 weeks


Well this morning we woke up to this ... FOG. It was so thick, it was so quiet outside. I even heard the fog horn of one of the boats out there. Eerie.









Frecks joined me on the deck to assess the situation. Not bad for a 17 year old poochie.



 This nap time, I tucked him up in the big bed for some reason. He looked too cute, so out came the camera (of course).

Hard napping in the big bed.






He loves his old school bouncer. I can't beleive they still make and sell these things.

The swing, Gabe sometimes sits for swing time sessions. lol.
