Maya is born

Maya Rae was born at 10am on 18 Dec 2012 after a 1 and 1/2 hour labor, weighing in at 3.4kg.

I put in a garden in honour

We had a picnic the next day, in the same place we had a picnic the night before, and buried the placenta.

And got one more photo for the animated GIF

Move to Melbourne

We were sad to leave Darwin, it really is a lovely place. Yes its hot, but the public pools are free, the shopping centres have aircon, the sunsets are magic, and the people are open hearted.

We moved to Melbourne where Leigh took a job at La Trobe University and Sunshine settled in to the idea of having another baby. We live in a nice house in Ivanhoe, Leigh rides to work each day.
