With less than 24 hours until our next child is delivered by cesarean section I can’t help but wonder how our little family is going to change. Carla & Saoirse are very close and enjoy each others company. I hope they can make room for one more. This image was captured while walking around the [...]

In just 7 days I will meet my third child for the first time. I had not given a huge amount of thought to this child during the last 8 and half months, mostly because our two girls offer such a constant level of distraction. Whilst taking these, Ciara and I actually spent time taking [...]

This little lot came out of my father in-laws boiler house, they had been resting there untouched for at least the last 10 years. All need some TLC and plenty of new parts to restore them to their former glory. Great project for anyone with a bit of spare time & money. My favourite has [...]

Mothers day today, we took Saoirse & Carla collecting sea shells at the beach in Sandycove. Another stunning spring day! Words can’t describe how lucky I feel when I sit back and take stock of my life and I see what it has dealt me so far. I hope every parent feels that way despite [...]

My girls sitting on the rocks at the top of Kindlestown Wood. The view is pretty good from up there, on a clear day you have great view of the Greystones coast line as well as Bray Head & Dublin bay. The girls love the walks in the forest and this was a welcome break [...]
Number 3

First scan of number 3 baby. Due end of September. It’s not a great scan picture to be fair, it looks a bit like a side on jelly baby at the moment. We got to see & hear a good strong heart beat. Can’t wait for the 3 & 4D scans later on this year.
Nice Sunday afternoon walk around Glendalough. We made a terrible mistake in parking the car down at the Glendalough Hotel and then had to push the double buggy all the way up to the top Lake and back again. I was knackered by the time we got back to the car. Still we made the [...]

Only uploading this today after the first scan & all is ok. We were very surprised at the news on the 25th of January (Ciara’s birthday) but once we got over the initial shock we are both delighted. Baby number (3) is officially in the oven and should be ready to meet the world this [...]
