"It looks like a baaji but it’s in custard Richard, custard."

It seems it is important to ensure that you keep your camera in your carry-on luggage when you go on holiday in case you need photographic evidence of your airline dinner...

Complaint Letter

This has to be one of my favourite food reviews ever.

Edit to include Dom photo. At least he is eating in this pic, so it's kind of appropriate.

Dominic gets swished up for a wedding!

Dominic got all dressed up yesterday in his stylishish new tux.

Dominic gets swished up for a wedding!

Dominic got all dressed up yesterday in his stylish new tux to attend a delightful CU ceremony at the Old Museum building in Wellington.

Kids in fancy clothes are cute. I have to think of more reasons to get him dressed up in his tux.



Stepping out in style.



Ready to par-tay.



Dad had to readjust adjust the outfit after a brief wardrobe malfunction exposed baby-belly.



After quickly getting hot, Dom when for a more relaxed look by having his assistants remove the jacket and cumerbund.



Dominic especially enjoyed the bits of the ceremony where he could join in the enthusiastic applause.



Partied out. After a quick stop to get dinner, the party boy crashed out in the back of the limo with his bow tie off and collar unbuttoned in true dishevelled playboy fashion.

Dominic in new T-shirts

Since his Granny sent him a bunch of new T-shirts, we decided to have a bit of a photo shoot this morning. This of course meant running around after him with a camera and having to either hold him or wait for the cat to distract him for long enough to stay still for a photo.



Dom wears his neat shark T-shirt. It will go well with his shark bike helmet.



Posing with Dad. Observe the broad, muscular shoulders that have developed from lots of family exercise recently. His dad doesn't look too bad either :-)



Dom opted for a lying down picture here. Not good for showing off the T-shirt but still cute.



Wearing the cool Rhino T-shirt.



Modelling is thirsty work.

Bike seat for Dominic!

We have now have a cool wee baby seat on the back of my bike for Dominic! Yay!

Matt took Dom for a short test ride today but hopefully the sunny weather will return and we can go for lots of longer bike rides as a family.


It was hard to get photos where Dominic wasn't looking down staring at the back wheel in fascination.


His bike helmet has cool sharks on it. I wish I could get one like it in adult size.
