....thanks for coming to read my blog.


I hope that you will enjoy keeping in touch with our lives, and that one day, you might even make the trek out to come and visit with us (**NB - VISA's upon arrival for Canadians once again!!).

Grab yourself a nice cup of tea (Make mine JTG's Blue Mountain, mixed with a hint of French Earl...but get something that suits your fancy), and let's catch up...

The Maiden Voyage


While NB was fast asleep in her swing (with a low probability of waking for hours as she was full to the brim with breast milk), I decided to take her big brother and sister outside. The winds have died down, and I feel it is important for them to occasionally breathe air that isn't artificially chilled.

With Malou's help to load (and unload) baby N, we popped him into the push tricycle. Little A was content to push, until we got to the curb of the sidewalk outside our villa, where she suddenly realized a desire to ride her OWN bike. So, we had to turn around and go back and get it. Unfortunately, I did not get the camera again.

Baby N had a few "I'm the king of the world" Titanic moments (where he then had to be pushed back down into a seated position), and overall seemed to really enjoy the experience. It was a delight to see his big sister making an effort to use her own legs to pedal her bike (though she got fwustwated many times when the unlevel sidewalks of Raha Gardens caused her to lose traction and made her pedalling useless).

It was a very short ride (about five minutes), but we all really enjoyed it.
