Picnic at Lane Cove National Park

Wonderful to meet up with the hiking gang again and play a fun game of croquet. The highlight was meeting Zante's adorable new baby.  It was good to see dear Graeme too, who is currently in a battle with cancer.

Jo delivering babies

And loving it!

 

So happy to discover that Dani has had a baby

So thrilled for her!

Jo as a baby

Jo scanned in some more photos of her as a baby. How gorgeous was she. And lovely to see pics of me as a doting brother.

Nic and his new baby

Sue and Alex's gorgeous little one, Amilie

How cute is she!!  And she just about never cries. The perfect baby. If Sue and Alex could distil the magic formula, they'd be billionaires.

Boxing day with Doug and Claudia and Lucus and Eric

Is this little girl photogenic or what!

I went over to see Brendan and Eva's new house which is absolutely fantastic.  I was even more excited when I discovered that Jodie is not shy of the camera.  I'll make the most of it while it lasts.  She's absolutely beautiful, I'm sure you'll agree.

And of course, Ella is as wonderful as ever, always full of fun.

Eva and Brendan's new baby, Jodie

Here we go, at last, Jo!  She's so adorable, I'm sure you'll agree it was worth the wait...
