Last week Gully and mum jetted off to New Zealand to visit Brie before she has her baby. Gully was a great traveller and we had an amazing time.


Excited in the taxi to the airport!
























Away we go! The two novelty necklaces I bought from the op shop were great 'new toys' to keep Gulls busy while we flew.

Nine months is a fantastic age to be

Lots and lots of teething going on! We now have the top and bottom two teeth and three more top teeth pushing through. Drool-o-matic! Apart from that life is pretty darn exciting. Lots of snuggles and exploration going on, much to the delight of both parents.
