Little Boy with Little Hands

Our little man, "Litte Jai", is growing up fast! His cute little hands are big for his age-range, his fingers strong and firm. Each day I am amazed at how he is progressing. He tries so hard to support his own neck, pushing upwards when I hold him against my shoulder for burping. According to... Continue Reading →

And Now We Are Three

To those who have not heard nor read elsewhere: My lovely wife and I now have a gorgeous little boy: Jai Ethan Mitchell Last Saturday night we went into the WCH hospital to be induced ... and about an hour later he arrived quicker than expected.

Will it be a Boy or a Girl?

Yes, the baby is still sitting pretty inside my wife's tummy! Since we chose not to know if our soon-to-be-born baby is going to male or female, here are photographs in the two colours that society deems to be most associated with both genders. Yeah, just an excuse to post an array of random photographs... Continue Reading →

Why the sudden importance on this? There's going to be a baby in our house in 5 months time (thus the interesting title... Continue Reading →

Equality Comes from Within

I absolutely love this quote from Harper Lee, the brilliant author of "To Kill a Mockingbird." She once wrote in a letter to a young fan named Jeremy, "I'm probably no better than you, but I'm certainly your equal." These simple words carry a world of wisdom. It's not always easy to say, but it's... Continue Reading →

Hand Rearing a Magpie

This baby magpie was found at the foot of a tree on family property in the Adelaide Hills. It's presumed it fell out of the family nest. It will be hand-reared until it can fly back to its family. Whilst some might think the natural cycle of animals would have culled this fallen magpie, the mother... Continue Reading →
