Amare and Farley had a great time chasing each other around and in the dam. One can only wonder what mischief they will get up to when we move up to Healesville. I'm sure by then there will be a little boy running around causing plenty of his own mischief as well.

A trip to Healesville on the weekend and a chance for the little guy to get out and about, thinking we might need to put those shoes on him sooner rather than later with the rate he is getting about now!Crawling still the favoured long distance travel method, but walking gets it's fair share of a work out too.Here is the cheeky little boy staging his own little version of 'The Great Escape'.

An interesting concept of taking a photo a day and sharing with the world. I've decided to jump on board and give it a crack, what will my daily photo's be?I have no real planned theme or structure for this project just some random snaps a day, more than likely the family will be heavily featured but we will see how it evolves over the course of the year.Don't expect any real high res pics from

A Sunday drive up through the hills and in to Yarra Glen presented us with this lovely sight, unfortunately for race goers there will be no action at this track come Melbourne Cup day (Tuesday).That is by no means a small fence for the Yarra Glen racecourse that the water is hiding!And the road through to Healesville shut off due to floodingOn the last day of October Victoria experienced some

And now some photos from the walk around the farm on a gorgeous day.From the house headed down past the dam and to the creek with Deb, Sebastian, Lily and the two boys.From here me and Amare headed off over the creek and up the hill, we followed the ridge line all the way to the back corner.We saw at least 20 kangaroos hopping about through the bush which didn't faze Amare one bit, as we got

Seb TV returns with some videos of Sebastian crawling around on the bed and just having a fun time, flashing a cheeky smile at the camera every now and than.No doubt before long he will be walking, but at the moment he is getting around just fine (and very quickly) by crawling just like his four legged friends Amare and Farley.

Time for some more SebTV. This time we bring you footage of Seb in his brand new Jolly Jumper!An interesting concept that may well be early training for a life of bungy jumping or may just be a jiggly bouncing device that appeals to youngsters haha.Seb sure does enjoy it and proudly shows off his latest trick in mouth bubbling/farting.

How young is too young to start racing?Ok so Sebastian isn't even a year old and doesn't own a racing helmet let alone a kart but a recent visit by a friend from New Zealand saw Sebastian receive his first ever official racing suit and a Ferrari one at that all the way from Italy!Sebastian - June 2010Last weekend was the perfect opportunity for Sebastian to get 'suited up' being a Grand Prix

The two person balancing act of feeding Sebastian has finally come to an end when we headed out and purchased a high chair on Saturday.A trip to Ikea is always fun and never without drama, the place always seems filled with people who have nothing better to do than waste days wandering around in circles ignoring whatever flow the store tries to provide to keep things moving.

The boys of the house were left in charge last night as Deb headed out with friends to a local Ethiopian restaraunt - small portion food? ;)Some forward thinking I grabbed myself a chicken schnitzel whilst out shopping earlier that day.You can never go wrong with a chicken parma and this one was certainly delicious.Settled down on the couch and enjoyed sone Top Gear on the box whilst Seb dozed

A quick trip to SA to catch up with the family and Grandma's 90th party. For most it was their first chance to meet our little guy and all three of us had a blast catching up with everyone, even with the unlimited kilometres we seemed to cover.Trip to SA & Grandma's 90th - April 2010It was great watching Sebastian meet and play with his cousins Jazmin and Olivia, especially the early morning when

So last weekend was Earth Hour ("Earth Hour is a global call to action to every individual, every business and every community. On March 27 2010, people all over the world stood up and showed leadership. Together we are more than "just one person" when it comes to acting on climate change").Our third year participating saw us head out to Ann & Rob's for a lovely candlelit dinner.Here's a quick

A few quick videos taken on my phone of these beasts going around from Friday 26th March 2010. Unfortunately we all know by now that the race didn't unfold so favourable for the Red Bull duo of Sebastian Vettel and Aussie Mark Webber. Vettel bowed out to a brake failure with quite a commanding lead, whilst Webber fell victim to bad timing on his tyre change (from Wet's to Slicks) which saw him

Well it has finally happened; Adam has given me the reins of his blog AND Sebastian has moved out of his crib and into a cot!So after 13 weeks in his crib the time had come to bid farewell.He could now clearly kick both sides and was running out of arm and head room fast!So once the cot arrived and the realisation that it came with no instructions had set in (perhaps this was better than me

Just a quick update with some photos and videos taken over the last couple of weeks of our favourite little guy. He is growing more and more and his little arms and legs are getting very active along with some chatting that I'm sure makes perfect sense to him.Sebastian playing with his funky coloured animal.Be like Mike, I wanna be like Mike.Mr Cutie, Mr Smiley.Sebastian and his good friend

This 1600cc Formula Vee made it's first apperance at Round 1 in Winton last weekend earning a very impressive 3rd place in the feature race and 5th overall for the weekend.I haven't seen it in person but hoping to get along

It was a gorgeous Saturday we headed up to Croydon (about 40 minutes away) to catch up with Ann and check out the Croydon Farmers Market.A beautiful mid 20's day made for a pleasant wander around the many stalls of fresh and mainly local produce.We found plenty of delicious goods and the return to bite size samples of EVERYTHING was very much welcomed.The Lockton Farm Gourmet Sausages were

WOW, what a show nature put on for us on Saturday 06th March 2010. With plenty of warnings of a wet and wild weekend ahead no one quite expected what nature had in store for us.A lovely sunny mid 20's degree morning soon turned into hail storm's and flash flooding in a matter of minutes.Hail bigger than golf balls fell on the City causing damage in the millions, Etihad Stadium level 2 was shut

So for my 29th birthday last December Deb, Ros, Mak, Ann & Rob all joined forces to get me a Tuff 4x4 Ragged Edge experience including lunch out before hand.So on Saturday we headed off to Shadowfax Winery in Werribee.We had never heard of it before but it turned out to be a little treasure, nestled in just behind Werribee Mansion and Werribee Zoo and right next door to quite a Polo event that

The Adelaide 36ers finished their 2010 NBL campaign dead last with 10 wins and 18 losses to record the clubs first ever wooden spoon.It was a disappointing second half of the season which saw the Sixers close out on a seven game losing streak and not really looking like doing much damage in any of these games. Sure some were close and even the last game of the season went into overtime, but the

Saturday night we headed out to Langwarrin for Leah and Adam's wedding at McClelland Gallery & Sculpture Park. This was Sebastian's first wedding and for some of our friends the first time they have seen him since visiting him just after birth.Of course Sebastian was the best dressed man (besides perhaps the Groom ;) with his stunning little outfit made by Jane & Hanna's Mum (Thank you!!!).Here's

Sebastian had his first play time friend Oliver over for some couch chilling, floor rolling little boy fun.Whilst the staying power for both of the little guys was far from there, they both were very cute with their interaction with each other, both seemingly chatting away in some lingo no one will ever understand but seemed to bring smiles to both of the boys faces. Plenty of whacking and

We're back online after the recent computer drama's.The new beast is a Dell studio, went with the 15" option after previously having a powerful beast with a full 17" screen the weight close on 6kg was really a pain to lug around.

With beautiful weather today we headed out with Sebastian to the South Melbourne Markets.On the hunt for some freshly ground coffee as our supplies had dwindled mid week and heaven forbid we had a few days on the instant eekkk.No trip to South Melbourne is complete without a stop for the famous Dim Sims mmmmm YUM!!With Seb riding in his new Baby Bjorn up front eating two steamed dim sims covered

Dear beloved laptop,Thankyou for your services, you consistently pushed yourself to the limit, above and beyond the call of duty. You were by my side whenever I needed, more than just a tool, a workhorse, a connection to others.You will be sorely missed and whilst yes you will be replaced you will not be forgotten.For those sitting there confused my laptop has retired, so communication, updates,

How time is flying, Sebastian is now two months old and growing at a rapid rate.The grandparents came over in mid Jan to catch up and of course the timing couldn't have been better with the Adelaide 36ers in town to take on the Melbourne Tigers.A couple of friends also came over for the game and was great to catchup with them and their first chance to meet Sebastian as well.Also got a chance to

Well it's been a while since the last update, Christmas in fact.So New Years came and went and now being responsible parents we didn't go out on the town or anything crazy, just a nice quiet one at home. Had a few friends over for some poker and some good food and drinks. Seb was his usual quiet self and whilst we had him out for the fireworks he was still sound asleep.New Years Eve 2009It was a

Hopefully everyone is having a fantastic Christmas eve and are getting ready for an even better Christmas day with family and or friends.We had a pretty quite Christmas eve enjoying some lovely Tasmanian Salmon that a customer through work flew in for us. Usually I'm not a huge salmon fan (mainly scarred by bad packet salmon from the supermarket) but this was sensational, so very rich. Of course

What an eventful year! My 29th Birthday was a nice relaxing day home with the family. Deb, Sebastian and the boys (dogs) Amare & Farley. Kicked back and enjoy the NBA double header - although my boys the Phoenix Suns lost by three points :( also enjoyed a lovely home made brunch of bacon and eggs. We took Seb for his first cruise in his Hummer - oh wait up it's a Jeep - close enough. So off to

What to do whilst waiting for little Sebastian to come home, why build a pantry of course.Ok truth be known the pantry building was planned before Sebastian's arrival with the folks coming over for my birthday, a early Christmas and for me to utilise dads tools and skills in building a fully fledged pantry to replace our shelving unit. A unit which was custom built some seven years ago for a

Although ironically I did mention in the car trip in that I was ready for him to arrive.It was a whirlwind morning in the hospital arriving around 9am, we had gotten pretty use to the routine due to
