From all of us!

Cheeky girl...

Trying to put on her shoes... no she can't pull it off just yet.

Living with Sophie

She's such a big girl now, but having the girl around does slow down time a little and helps take my mind off work. She's recently been having some bad sleeping habits and waking up late nights thinking it was already morning.

Not sure how many times she woke up last night, but around 1-2am she thought it was morning and wanted to brush her teeth - I think we only got her to sleep after an hour. I got up around 6am today when Sophie did, she wanted to get up and crawl around - after showing her the sights outside the window we went back to her pallet and while I wanted to sleep again, she was intent on brushing her teeth.

So we did that and cleaned up, then went outside to her play area and started on her music books. I made her some bread and jam for breakfast and she ate while moving and playing around. Then later after her breakfast she found her shoes and wanted to put them on, she walked for a while before deciding it's faster to crawl (as it always happens) and started to get on the floor again.

Usually I get to sleep in and her mom will be doing all of this, but once in awhile it's daddy's turn. Anyway it's good to be able to play with her a little in the morning before the daily commute. After I got dressed, we had a group hug and she waved me off... typical morning...

Sophia's 1st Birthday

The baby at one year, time flies...

Sophia pictures...

Well that certainly was a long hiatus from the blogosphere. Thought I'd start the ball rolling with new Sophia pics. She's all big now and trying to walk...

These were taken some months back, so she's almost a year old now and can't fit into these clothes anymore. Since then I've been busy at work, went to Bali with the family and trying to come home early enough before the rascal goes to bed.

Eating

Sophie Pics

I've realised that I missed a couple of months in the video recording of Sophia. While going through the old tapes and editing them, seems we missed her during most of her 4th month as well as 6th months. When I continue next week she's already going to be 7 months old.

Time flies, she changes so much. Here's another one of my favourite pics... such a cutie, but notice the one big eye and one small eye...

Baby

Yes I do miss her a lot...

Happy New Year!

Both new years have passed already, and it's been awhile since we had an update. So here's a newer picture of the rascal, she's almost 7 months now. Rainbow Connection below is the song I sing to her to put her to sleep... mom has a more varied repertoire. I'm stuck with this and a handful of oldies.

She's just cute... loves her mattress sleeping area! And she's beginning to complain from the teething experience. The picture is a few weeks old though...

Family Pic

Latest picture taken last weekend after dinner. She's really intent on eating stuff.

DR in da house!

Ho ho ho! A buddy of mine recently graduated with a PHD in Computer Engineering recently from University of Queensland... here's a pic... it's definitely worth a mention in my auspicious blog! hahaha...

Congrats man

The teddy is from his aunt, no it didn't come as a going away present from the uni. The wierd looking hat is the dresscode for PHD holders known as a bonnet... heheh yeah the same kind babies used to wear.

He's looking for a job now. So if anyone is looking for a briliant PHD grad for some computer engineering work, with excellent teaching records and some industrial experience as well. Give em a buzz... just comment on this post.

Girls...

The girls at home...

Sophie... almost 3 months

Fussy Girl

Sophie's getting chubbier by the day... should be around 5 kilos now. Getting fussy and not wanting to sleep or eat properly! But mom's managing I suppose... wish I was there...
