New York New York!!!

Well where do I start? One week in the Big Apple, with my oldest and dearest girlfriend, no kids and lots of cosmopolitans .... An awesome birthday week!

It started with a birthday breakfast with my beautiful family in Melbourne, followed by a business class flight to New York where 18 hours later it was still my birthday. Needless to say we celebrated again with a lot of drinks and a fancy meal at a very trendy restaurant. And then, to top off a first class birthday, I received a call from my sister saying she had just delivered a beautiful little girl - Sophie!
Seriously if anyone can top that birthday, id love to hear about it!

So we drank, we shopped, we strolled, we caught up - uninterrupted! We ate our way through some of New Yorks top eateries, and we pondered art at world class museums. We stayed at the opulent Plaza Hotel on 5th avenue for 4 days, 3 nights and we woke up late and had bloody Mary's with our breakfast! I was gropped by Elmo and chased through times square by a smurf looking for money!
It was an awesome holiday, but as fun as it was I missed my family Like crazy and was so so glad to gave them back in my arms at the airport.
Thank you Andrew for being the most supportive, understanding, patient, loving and giving other half, I am so in love with you still it hurts. Mwah xx

The Luckiest Guy on Earth

Not that there has ever been any doubt, the past week has highlighted that I have the most beautiful and wonderful family. The only thing that could have topped off this week would be having Em home with us. It has been wonderful spending such quality time with each of you. I have loved all the extra cuddles and kisses. Holly, Harry and Lucy, you are all such amazing beautiful little people, I am so lucky to be your Dad. Em, this week on several occasions I forgot to eat, clean my teeth and who knows what else! You seemingly effortlessly achieve so much everyday while embracing each of the kids (sometimes stubborn) awesome personalities. Mwah Mwah Mwah. I love you.

Signing out and handing back Blogger passwords, Andrew.

Last Day

Park Time

After school today we went down to the Montrose park. Lucy loved the swing, she thought it was hilarious pushing her head back so she was swinging upside down. Holly is definitely a Spider Monkey, as nervous as I was she had so much confidence scaling anything she could with ease. Harry you are so gentle with little Lou Lou.

Everyone is missing Mummy. Today when Grandma came through the front door Harry called out 'Mummy's home. 3 more sleeps!









Having fun with Harry

Great to be able to play with Harry while Lucy sleeps.



Ready, Steady, Go!

Today is ready, steady, go day for Harry. I think we might have to go to the driving range cause this could be the sport of choice for our little golfer. Harry you are such a good listener, did everything your teacher told you to do with no mucking around. Well done Boofa!

Time for Dad to look in eBay for kiddy golf clubs. Perfect sport for us to play together.
