Animals

Milan loves animals - here he is at the zoo and the museum getting close and personal with some inanimate ones.

Hugging and Kissing

Milan is genuinely infatuated with Hugo. He wants to hug and kiss him at every opportunity. Poor little Hugo has already had two colds because Milan slobbers him whenever he gets a chance.
Hugo is nearly 3 months old in these photos. If he's not asleep he's smiling.

Fun outside with Melynee

Melynee is our fantastic Au Pair from California. Milan and Hugo just love her. Milan can't quite say her name right - it comes out 'Melynlyneeee.'
I was so happy to have Fleet back home. It took Milan a few days to get used to having a big dog around but now he's realised that he's quite fun to play with - there is a big tail to pull and a wet nose to poke.

My Aeroplane Hat

Milan has got a huge chunk of his Grandad Gibson's genes (wish he had some more of his Nan Gibson's genes and ate his veggies!) He loves aeroplanes and helicopters. Here he is wearing his 'Aeroplane hat.' He wore it once on the plane down to New Plymouth and now it is reserved for trips to the airport (we take a drive out there every so often to show him the planes taking off and landing.)

Lunch at the Zoo

One of Milan's favourite outings is the Auckland Zoo. Here he is pretending to eat lunch. Food and Milan don't mix well - especially if it is called a fruit or a vegetable (must take after his father.)

Milan and Hugo; aged 1 and a half months.

This was the first time we let Milan loose holding Hugo. Hugo looks none too impressed about it - probably because Milan felt the need to kiss him every ten seconds.

Pulling Faces

If you want to get Milan to smile you say 'show your teeth!' The result is usually something like this - although not always with the marmite smears!

Milan the Fool

Milan's Pop Eggleton likes to call him a 'little fool' and here's proof that he is! It seems that he especially likes to be a fool while naked!

Hugo aged 2.5 months

Hugo loves sitting in this old fashioned bouncer. He'll spend ages in there chewing on his fist and chatting away. He's lucky if he doesn't get a lick from Fleet or a kiss from Milan while he's there. When he was first born we had to place him up on a table so that Milan didn't smother him!
