A new chapter

I thought that it was time to recommence Adele and Brooke's blog not just for publishing great stories but to cherish and capture the moments and memories of their very special lives. So we hope you enjoy these stories, comments and pictures.

Brooke's Birth

Our beautiful daughter named Brooke was born April 3rd in North Shore Private Hospital. She surprised us by coming into this world in a speedy manner. With only 6 contractions she was happy to see the light. Mum and Dad are so excited with our

bundle of joy!

Look who's eating with a spoon by herself!

A movie of Adele eating porridge with a spoon. Its quite funny to see her shoving it into her mouth. She doesn't like mummy helping her anymore which is a relief. Mum can now eat her meals without any interruptions. Yeah!

December - KindiFarm Xmas Party 2008

Adele's social calendar is very hectic in December. She gets invited to more events than her parents! This is her KindiFarm Xmas Party and holiday break-up on Monday. The children get the opportunity to touch the baby farm animals and feed them too.

Adele and her farm friends.

Adele at first was a little scared of the animals but she quickly warmed to them.
