The last couple of weeks ...


So much has happened over the last couple of weeks, our little baba is growing and changing more and more each day and every day has been an adventure worth capturing ... hence a million and one pictures!

3 weekends ago we got invited to stay with our good friends Rob and Erica Armstrong on their wine farm Hout Espoir in Franschhoek. It was the same weekend of the Uncorked Wine Festival. What a beautiful day spent on the Lynx Wine Estate.

Troy's first wine festival!



Anyone who knows Mattie, knows about the fringe comb-over ... his hands were full, so thought I'd help out!

The Websters loving our little monkey!

Very tired after a long day of wine tasting in his little outfit from his Oom Rudi.

I still meet up with my fellow anti-natal moms every second Wednesday, it is still so great to see everyone, see how our little ones change and how normal they all are! The Wednesday before last we all went to Kirstenbosch Tea Room at the Gardens.


Aunty Kirst came to visit and felt instantly very comfortable with her ...



On the 17th of October, Troy was 6 weeks old and we decided to introduce his first bottle, so I expressed the entire day to make up the feed and that night John got to feed his beautiful son for the first time! What a wonderful experience ...


That next day we had a fish braai at the Garth and B's, was such a nice outing and we had the most delicious fish that Garth caught the day before.

The very next day the 8 of us went to Royale for dinner, R30 Burgers, R10 Beers ... whoo hooo ... what a deal!


Our poor child constantly have a camera in his face, he absolutely LOVES looking so cute, so mommy just keeps clicking! Here goes:



Chilling with his daddy!

Oupa visits every week and the monkey just loves cuddling with is Oupa!





It's getting so hot lately, sleeping in his carry-cot while mommy and daddy watches Sunday telly!

Last Saturday we had a really busy day, Troy went to his first birthday party. At 10:00 we had Ben Osborne's 1st birthday, which was lovely, then after that at 14:00 we went to Luca's 1st birthday party and then that evening, we went to Will Phillips 30th. The theme was Casablanca, what a great party! But what a tiring day!!!


Getting ready for our big day out!

Troy's first "swim" with his daddy! (can you call it swim if you're not even getting wet? :))


HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL LUCA!

Last Sunday John, myself and Troy went to Kalk Bay's Olympia for the best breakie, afterwards taking our beautiful boy for a walk in and around the harbour. Just taking in the beauty of this place we call home, surrounded by mountains and ocean we realised that no matter what the future holds ... we'll always call this place home!

Such a proud Mommy!

Such an amazing Daddy!

The happiest parents EVER!

Lots of love ...
