Family Faces




Elise
has had a very sociable month meeting some relations for the first time and also visiting other relations in Ballina.
Elise recently met 3 of her great grandparents visiting Sydney from WA. This was such a special time seeing the generations together!

Elise
also had her very first plane trip (love those $49 jetstar specials) to visit grandma Bannon and Alan in their new home in
Ballina as well as Aunty Megan and Uncle Nigel. Grandma and Alan are enjoying their new coastal lifestyle after moving from a sweltering Dubbo summer and now Meg and Nige are house-hunting in the area too.

Lessons learnt for mum Kate and dad Sean is never to fly home in cranky hour again as we became "the parents on the plane with the screaming baby who would not stop crying" ....Honesty people looked at us like we had 3 heads. Oh well these are part of the memorable experiences of parenthood and we all survived.


Elise
is now 5 months old and she is now rolling over, recognising her name and has started laughing a lot (so cute to see a sense of humour develop!)

We have decided a blog of the Edmiston E(lise)S(ean)K(ate)apades is the way to go.. easier to update than our website so we will enjoy writing a blog now on a more regular basis.

Hello to the Edmiston Clan,

Thank you for keeping us in touch, we love the site & Maeve cant wait to meet Elise. She also wants to know what Nova thinks of Elise.

Yes... those reactions to their first taste of solids are priceless & hilarious. Cant wait til she tries pumpkin!!

Elise has a very cute & cheeky grin. Great to hear the sleeping is better. Sleep deprivation can make life interesting at times. Hence why I one day put the phone in the fridge instead of the butter.

Hope to meet Elise soon.

Dear Kate, Sean and Elise,
What a great blog site, it was lovely to see Elise and the rest of the Edmiston/Bannon family. Elise is a bit of a stunner - takes after her mother!
More photos please!
Hope to catch up with all soon.

Love David, Lucy, Kate, Archie and James, and from Lisa (who is homeless and staying with us.)

Hi Kate and Sean. Aunty Maureen and Uncle Ned have seen the blog site - they both think that baby Elise is like baby Kate!

Hope all is well and that Elise is being good.

Cousin Lisa is off to England tomorrow - she has met the man of her dreams (we think).
