Joshua went to the beach yesterday

Tomoko and I took Joshua to the beach yesterday. He’s been to the beach several times before, however, we took him to Fairlight beach for the first time. He loved it! He was able to wade around in the child pool area provided.

Joshua is now crawling like a marathon runner!

Little Joshua has started crawling in the last week. He’s at the point now where he can crawl quite comfortably around our dining room. We’re going to need to start “fencing” off the dining room now.

Dad passed away

Dad’s battle with brain cancer ended 3 weeks ago on the 1st sep 09. He passed away early in the morning from breathing difficulties.

His feuneral was held that following Friday and was attended by family, friends and loved ones.

Although increadbly sad for all who knew and loved him, this had been in the cards for some 13 months.

Finally he is at peace!

On a brighter front, little Joshua Morton is doing really well. Now 3 months old, I find it amazing how time has flown since his birth.

Both Tomoko and I love him so much. We are delighted to see him grow and develop every day.

His Aussie grandma loves visiting him every week.

We can all see a little bit of dad in Josh, and in a way, he is doing his part to relieve the pain of loosing dad. Sometimes in life, when one door closes, another door opens.

We are just all delighted that dad was able to meet his first grandchild prior to his passing.

We will miss you dad and will always love you!

Here is a photo of Dad when he was only 18 Years Of Age.

Dad has stopped eating

After 13 months, it now appears that dad is in his final stages. He has just stopped eating, and it again appears that after nursing him at home for the last 3 months, that he is going to have to return to the hospice.

Baby and mum doing well

Josh is doing well, as is mum and dad.
I want to thank all family and friends who have called and emailed their kind wishes. As you can imagine, I have been a little snowed as late, however I will email and call you all in due time.

Joshua Morton pics

Ok, I thought I would post a few pictures of little Joshua Morton. These photos aren’t the best, however, I haven’t downloaded the good pictures from the camera yet. These photos were taken 6 Hrs after birth on the 15th June 09.

Since Josh was born using Forceps, you can still see the marks left by them on his face, however, these will disappear in a few days or so.

Joshua Takumi Morton was born lastnight at 11:30pm 15/6/09 3.5Kg

Little Joshua Takumi Morton was born last night at 11:30pm at Manly hospital. Weighing 3.5Kg at measuring 14cm from head to tail.

Mum and baby are doing well.

Manly hospital was fantastic, the did a fantastic job, Josh was a difficult birth, because Josh is quite a healthy size. However Tomoko,  is a trooper and did really really well. She is delighted with her new little baby boy (as am I of course).

She’ll be at hospital for a few days. Ofcourse pictures will follow when I pry the camera out of Tomoko’s hands <grin>

Mum and Dad are both delighted with the news they now have a grandson!

Tomoko is now 34 weeks

Exciting times. Tomoko’s pregnancy is now 34 weeks! Josh could be born at any time now.

We are hoping dad will be with us still when Josh is born. It looks like he will. He has deteriated significantly, however, I think he is still determined to see the birth of his first grandchild.

Mum has been fantastic. She has been very supportive. Knitted lots of things for Josh (jumpers, teddy bears, rugs, booties, blankets). We now have everything to welcome Josh into the world.

I’m really proud of Tomoko, she is a trooper thus far. She’ll be a great mum. I am however a little nervous about the birth. Not being a fan of seeing others in pain, and being a little squirmish around bodily fluids, needles and Doctors, I am hoping I don’t faint or something (during the birth).

Exciting times indeed for Tomoko and I.
