Koboshi - our new little addition.

On October 3 2006 our lives changed forever when little J was born. He was a bundle of joy and quickly acquired the nick name Koboshi. In addition to his other talents he was also the first from either family to be born in Oz!





At Ka's baby shower on the Gold Coast, Ka was 8 months pregnant.





Ka on her way to the hospital, Koboshi came a week late.





Our newest family edition, our little son J.




Leaving the hospital and taking Koboshi home for the first time.





Koboshi's first ride in the car. He was so small in his capsule but was very relaxed and slept the whole way home.





Meeting his grandparents, Ka's parents flew out from Switzerland to meet baby J.





Taking it easy around the house.





J's blessing ceremony. We had his blessing at home while Ka's parents were here.





Hanging around the house, nothing to do and all day to do it.





Koboshi's first Christmas, Australia 2006.





Dreamworld has a special place in our hearts as K was a stuntman in the Bushranger show for many years. Koboshi got to meet Kenny Koala and Belinda Brown - Dreamworld's two mascots - and then went on to meet Sponge Bob Squarepants and Patrick Star.





Koboshi's first sighting of a kangaroo although we don't think he will remember.





Out and about celebrating a friend's 1st birthday in the park.





This is Koboshi's cheeky grin.





Koboshi came to K's work function Barbeque in the the park.




J likes to sit up on some cushions Ka made for him. He can now sit up straight all by himself.





Our first visit to the beach. Ka and J are at Surfers Paradise.





At the Hard Rock Cafe on the Gold Coast, while K and Ka enjoyed the food, J just enjoyed socialising.





Now this is fun - J loves his Jolly Jumper!





J's first Easter. He gave the chocolate Bunny and egg the thumbs up.




At another BBQ. J loves to visit and meet new people (as long as he is on our laps), he has become a regular at weekend functions.




And here he is sitting in the park watching K play cricket on ANZAC Day.

We feel so lucky to have little Koboshi in our lives and we look forward to sharing his growth and future milestones with you all.

Hi guys! Great photos and great blog!
Koboshi's getting real big! He's a very happy boy! Thanks for sharing them. Hope you're all doing well. We're still unpacking from our move into our townhouse on April 1st, and experiencing all the joys of home ownership... Problems with the boiler, a flooded cellar from the last big storm, etc... but it's all good! Send our love to everyone! John, Ivette, and Aeth
