2 months today.

So its nearly the end of June and AJ is 2 months old today.


I had some spare time on my hands in June as I moved on from HP and start a new job in the new financial year. Gimme a call if you need to know more, but for now, back to the reason you visit this blog... ie not to hear me rant on about my day...



A pile of baby and one smitten GG. The little ranga is Jess's new bub (Mel's sister) and he is already cuddling up close to his cousin.



Well... if you have a girl, I guess I just have to dress her up as Piglet..



"I heard Dad made a DJ comeback at Tina's wedding... maybe I can still break into the 'industry' Australia's Got Talent here I come."



Emma, Jess and Jayden all visited from Canberra. This is Jayden showing us some of his from the Belco-hood moves.



He then showed us all how to 'ride' this strange contraption.



Anything you can do I can do also?



Nice placement of the Yellow dinosaur Jayden. Hudson you are going to work on the covering of the privates if Mum is going to keep taking photo's of you in the bath.



Cute from behind



Cute front on... and now we are ready for Seaworld!



This is the face of little kids at an Ernie and Bert extravaganza and then in the back is the big kid who knew all the words to all the songs!



What is a visit to Seaworld without a carousel ride...



FYI... they don't build these things for 90kg Dads...


"Dad, I'm going in the front, and you are going in the back" (you had to be there)



The face of happy kids in a truck



Reminiscing the old days when they used to get picked up by boys and taken for a 'ride'



This visit may have cost Emma a puppy. Jayden and Harvey became very good friends.



OFS (Obligatory Family Shot) Before the demons were removed from AJ



I will cuddle you and squeeze you and I shall call you Wexi and never let you go.



Mel had to look from a distance fearing being struck by lightning.



Smile Wood.



In 16 years from now, these guys will be the new rat pack. Just Cuteness personified, the girls don't have a chance. Hudson's 'my friends' - Hamish



and Dean



And the lead trouble maker.



Extended OFS



What ever Hudson was looking at was obviously much more interesting.



Smile...



And now relax..



What do you get when you cross 4 toddlers and a 13ft trampoline...



Baby Pile!



Ronnie and Joan spent some QT with AJ



And Joanie has not lost the touch... able to get AJ to smile at will.



"Dad, not sure that the Bulldogs are gonna do any good this year?"


AJ and her Dad watching Friday night footy.



Hudson doing what Hudson does best... Eat.



And now for a montage of AJ.



"and this AJ is how I sleep in the mornings"



"Make sure you tuck the back legs in, it makes for a much deeper snore"



"and when we do it together, they cover us in a blanket and keep us warm"



The many faces of AJ - this is "What's that thing in your hands Mum?"



This is pouting... this when perfected will ensure she gets what ever she wants from Dad later in life



Puzzled?



Drunk



And this face is what Harvey would call, undignified... Really Mum, how long have you been waiting to do this?


'Til next time

4 years today...

My dad, Hudson and AJ's grandpa and Harvey's biggest fan passed this time 4 years ago... So as a tribute, here is a photo of him, not looking too out of place with the fashion of the youth today. And yes I can say fashion of the youth today, as from last week I am officially closer to 40 than 30.







Now knowing that the big fella has super fast access to the internet, here are some recent family shots for his (and your) amusement.





That's an awful big yawn! Mum's not that boring is she?





Bailey and Harvey enjoyed their time together... You know the old saying, Dogs that lie together... don't do much else.





A recurring theme in the Brown household in the first weeks of AJ's life... Sleeping... for all involved. (except Mum)





Hudson hasn't quite worked out how best to cuddle AJ, this is permutation of the Hudson AJ cuddle number 234





A sleepy pout... poised and ready to feed at a moments notice... reflexes of a startled gazelle.





Ingredients. 2 Sleepy dogs, that are way to close to each other, 1 husband with a 2 week old baby, a digital camera and no supervision...





Equals uber cute baby on the dogs photo, that probably gets dad banned from alone time with the children for a little while. Worth every bit of grief I got!





If you can't beat em, join em. So I have a pink one, there is nothing left to do, but take photo's of her dressed up like a cherub. Quality hat!





Alexa has taken to Harvey very quickly. And is very comfortable around him... and on him.





Grandma with her Brisbane grandchildren. And yes Hudson we believe the hype!





What you lookin at?





Hudson AJ cuddle permutation number 437





"Dad, is harvey behind me? if so, he better not do what I think he is going to do"





"DAD... Harvey is licking me again! REALLY do we have to?"





"Listen here fool, don't F*ck with me, or I'll spew on your bed"





It got cold in Brisbane, nearly dropped below 20C, only nearly... But Huddo was getting prepared.





"WOW... check out these things on the end of my arm...Oh sorry Mum, I was suppose to pose then wasn't I"





Caption 1.



A wonderful shot of the Kowald girls...



Caption 2.



"Ok... who farted..."





The Brown boys basking the glory that is the first Brown girl in 60 years.



And a banana.





This is what happens when dad goes into the office for a couple of hours and leaves the rest of the house to their own devices.





"Harvey, you make a great pillow"





"No really, yawn, I can't say enough yawn about the level of yawn comfort up here yawn"





ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
