Growing so fast!



I took Emily to see the doctor on Friday. She had been quite sick and unhappy at the end of last week so I decided to get her checked out. Turns out she may have a mild case of reflux so we have some medicine for her which seems to have helped a little. Anyway, things can't be all bad because she now weighs 11lbs 11oz so she's put on well over 2lbs since she was born. She's starting to smile properly and even trying to turn over. She tried in the bath last night which wasn't too clever as she wasn't best pleased at having a drink in there ;)

Nanna finally made it home on Friday of last week having left here on the Thursday (a week late). I know she is very glad to be back at home but we enjoyed having her here for an extra week. Oliver particularly enjoyed having her to play cars and trains with :) I was worried about how he would react once he realised Nanna had gone home but he's done really well and says "Nanna home big plane" quite a lot :))

Nanna got to enjoy a couple of play dates with us - one at a friend's house and a visit to the zoo. Oliver wasn't too into the zoo and certainly wanted nothing to do with feeding the baby animals! He did, however, enjoy sitting on the tractor there!

At swimming on Saturday we were told that Oliver can move up to the next class for the summer session which is great news. Daddy will go in the pool with him for the first four weeks but after that Oliver will be in there just with the teacher. Should be interesting!!

Yesterday some good friends of mine held a baby shower for me which was really lovely. Emily got some lovely presents and super cute clothes :)


I took the kids and Scoop for a walk yesterday afternoon. I carry Emily in the sling and when I took her out she stayed in this position for the longest time!

I tried putting Emily in the Bumbo this morning. This picture was taken shortly before the tears came......

Oliver has wanted lots of pictures taken with his cars and trains this week!

A smile :)

A slight obsession with lining up his cars....

Emily quite liked Oliver's tiger

We looked after Mikayla last Saturday and here she is on the swing with Oliver

And playing the piano!
