Heatwave in Sydney.
Uncle Daney comes around, and trickles Miro in the cool of the hose.


22 January 2009

While on Skype to Mamiedou and Chloe, Miro gets so wild that he is banished to the bedroom.

He stands on his feet and, finding a channel for all that energy(!) becomes calm again...


21 January 2009

At lunch after the Monet exhibition, Miro can't sit still,
And steals a kiss from Lucy when she least expects it!


20 January 2009

At Victoria Park pool with all the bubs, best mate Ayden swoops in for the hug.


19 January 2009

Miro falls asleep for the night while still in the shower,
and we manage to dress him and put him to bed
without him noticing a thing...


18 January 2009

After a bit of evening Hwhinging, Miro takes the sudden and unpredicted move
Of falling asleep on the kitchen floor like this.


17 January 2009

On Miro's 7 month birthday, he joins the ladies for High Tea at the loft
And wreaks happy havoc on the teaparty.


16 January 2009

Grumbo listens for a "Ma-ma-ma" within all the "Dad-dad-dads"!


15 January 2009

Miro and Ayden go to the aquarium to celebrate Ayden's 6 month birthday.
Afterwards, they have chippies and chocolate mudcake.


14 January 2009

After a Sydney heatwave day, Daddy takes Miro for a swim at the Bronte rockpool.
The water is icy, but there are plenty of kids to make it all good fun!


13 January 2009

...so the next day, he gets up on his feet again to explore the toy box!

(must be those striped pyjamas...)


12 January 2009

Miro pulls himself to a standing position for the first time this morning,
and you can tell how proud he is of himself!


11 January 2009

Georgie plays with Miro.


10 January 2009

Unca Daney has a housewarming,
but as nice as the guests are,
his bedroom floor looks so comfortable
and drowsily appealing...


9 January 2009

Miro is obsessed with hair, Mummy's in particular.
He likes pulling it, smelling it, twining his fingers in it and falling asleep in it.
So we buy him a doll with real hair from the aboriginal shop.
His name is Jackson. Isn't he nice!


8 January 2009

Nonna comes to visit Miro from Melbourne.
He receives Golden Books and a soothing night time sound-and-light machine, as well as lots of cuddles !


7 January 2009

This photo wouldn't look nearly so cheesy if Miro wasn't wearing daggy workman's overalls!

But he is, and pretty happy about it too :)


6 January 2009

For Mummy's birthday, she and Miro share a lemon gelati at Norton Street.


5 January 2009

Homeward bound, Miro sleeps for four hours and plays for three,
Wedged between a mattress and his Mummy.


4 January 2009

The day so nice, it needed two pictures.

First, Miro gets buried by his second cousins in sand, and savours every bit.

Then, that afternoon turns to playtime and idling on the rug, where Daddy reads him a story... it's really trop bon!



3 January 2009

Point Plomer is grey and rainy when we arrive.
We take a dramatic walk to the cliffs.
The scenery is wild, and breathtaking.


2 January 2009

These holidays, Miro starts to crawl proper, knees and hands.
He starts by launching himself back and forth as often as possible...


1 January 2009

New Years Day is the perfect time to read and relax
in the beautiful camping grounds of Moonee Beach.


31 December 2008

New Years' Eve.
Two hours waiting for Indian food, and Miro finally falls asleep
Just before all the fun begins!


30 December 2008

On the road again.
Miro takes a break behind the wheel when we get to Kempsey.


29 December 2008

On Mummy and Daddy's third wedding anniversary,
There are some mighty strange insects stuck outside the flyscreen!


28 December 2008

After a smooth drive 3 and a half hours north to Blueys Beach,
Miro and Daddy relax and explore the sand.
