Richard,
For photographing your children, G2 and TLA200 is great. I'd suggest you to familiarise the flash usage, e.g. experiment with the flash compensation especially dealing with dark or distant backgrounds on off-centre composition. For more advanced use of flash (e.g. bounce flash etc.) you can use flashes like Metz or others. The manuals only give you minimum information, but you need to try yourself.
I personally use TLA200 for snapshooting family events and it works great. Sometimes I also use my Nikon SB25 if I want more advanced flash features with manual calculation. With TLA200 you won't have a studio quality pictures in terms of lighting but for snapshoots to me it is acceptable.
For my photography activities, normally I don't use flash, I just push the film e.g. ISO 400 to 3200.
By having G2 you are on the right track
