I found this old photo of myself that my dad took of me when I was about 3 years old (I think).
Looking at Aiden today there is a strong resemblance in the facial features.
The photo was badly damaged and requires a fair bit of restoration, but at least I now have a digital copy of the photo.

The other night Kim was sitting on the sofa with Lucas. They turned towards me and I took the following photos just using the built-in flash of my new camera.

It has now been two months since Lucas was born and the other night we did another session taking some two month photos...this time of myself and Lucas.
He has now grown a lot bigger and is a lot more alert to his surroundings. He is still not a very good sleeper although I think (Kim doesn't) he is improving a bit now.
Kim is pretty worn out having to wake up at night to feed him and I can't help much as I have work to look after as well as Aiden.

This year my work had organised a family day at Taronga zoo.
Since Chong works for the same company we managed to have most of the family covered with tickets and food.
It was great to show the kids some of the animals such as the big gorillas.
Snow leopards.
Mountain goats...
Lions...
And dinosaurs...
They also put on a seal show for us and it was fun to watch them performing stunts. Aiden was absolutely mesmerised...
By the end of the day everyone was knackered...

When I setup for my photos I normally have to take a range of setup shots to check if the light is the way that I want it. Sometime I managed to volunteer Kim to help me set up and on the rate occasion she pulls a funny face.

This is a series of photos I've taken of Lucas being 1 month old.
It is a lot harder taking baby photos this time around for a number of reasons such as it being harder to find the time with both Lucas and the newborn around as well as Lucas not being a very good sleeper. This means that whenever he does sleep it is time for especially mummy to have a rest rather than run around taking photos.
Aiden is extremely fond of his little baby brother and every morning he wants to see the baby and give him a little kiss.
Whenever Lucas cries, Aiden will say 'Dont cry Lucas'.
I am sure that as he grows older they will be best mates.
Hopefully as he grows older Lucas will be a bit easier we will be able to take more photos than we have been.

Lucas is now one month old and we had a little celebration for family and friends with bbq, food and cake.
It was a fine day with lots of kids around (so AIden was busy playing all day).

Some weeks ago there was a work photo competition where the theme was 'World Connected'. I didn't have much time due to the kids, but I did manage to put together this photo below for the competition with the title 'bringing closer those who matter!'.
It wasn't picked as a finalist, but still fun nevertheless.
