Louka's 2nd Birthday & Flynn's Reception Party

Flynn Christopher's christening went beautifully. Flynn was given the Greek name 'Filon' meaning 'to love'. His name day is 24th January after the Saint Filon from Karpasia Cyprus. Thank you to our beautiful god parent, Alexandra. Flynn was a perfect baby only really crying when dunked in the holy water.... The fun really began at the party down at the Community Centre in Lilyfield with a magician man, lots of kids running wild and of course the big kids enjoying lots of food and wine to also celebrate Louka Buddy's 2nd birthday....hip hip hooray.

Adelaide in August...brrrrrr!!!!!!!!!

Flynn now 12 weeks and Louka almost 2 during our recent 5 day stay in Adelaide. Louka enjoyed the various playgrounds around our Adelaide home in Glenelg although the wind and cool weather did not allow us very long visits. The house we stayed in was great with its own home theatre a must for families and rainy nights. Flynn and Louka enjoyed their family friendly Toyota Tarago as did we...it is no wonder they call it the family vehicle...so much room. We visited the Mclaren Vale and Adelaide Hills vineyards in between Chris' conference demands. Our final day in Adelaide was raining, sunny, windy and snowing....literally 4 seasons in 1 day.

Port Macquarie Paternity Leave

A wonderful 10 days in Port Macquarie, Flynn's Beach with family and friends. Flynn 7 weeks and Louka almost 2. Louka very much enjoying his Nouna, Nana and Dadda. Spoilt with all the attention. The end of our stay we bunked up with the Leach family of 4 with Frankie 2 weeks old. The rain kicked in for 2 days of their stay which was challenging with 4 kids under 2 in a unit....but we scored a great sunny weekend so off to the vineyards again we went.
