There will always be two things that we’ll remember on on the 20th of September, Eli’s birthday and Braai Master. Donné sat on the couch and watched TV while the contractions got closer together, and it was during Braai Master that it was suddenly time to head off to the hospital to meet our baby boy. And today he is one, special, precious and wonderful.

Getting some help from big sis to open those presents

He got sand pit toys so that he can enjoy his new sandpit (and a noisy book which he loves)

Having some fun with sissie on his first visit to the aquarium

And loving putting his hands in the water

Ice cream time…Grace got an ice cream, Eli got a cone (which he does seem to really enjoy)

But don’t worry, he also has a chance to eat some ice cream. Grace was 15 months before she had a chance to eat some ice-cream
