Feeding the Ducks in Hyde Park

We had a lovely Sunday afternoon walking through Hyde Park and stopped for lunch and to feed the ducks...

Supporting Cousin Arron the Marathon Man!

What a lovely weekend we have had.... We all went into town to support Arron run his half marathon in memory of Lisa and he finished the circuit in 2 hours 13mins which is fantastic, we of course missed the finish (someone told us the wrong start time!!) But well done Arron!

8 Weeks

Our lovely daughter is 8 weeks old today, to be honest we cannot remember life without her... Not even a lazy Sunday, sleeping through the night and what alcohol tastes like (Lee I am sure will be able to remind me!!)

The weigh in today went well, no weeing on the scales today and Megan now weighs 11lb 3oz and now measures 57.5cms which means she is on the 75th centile (child growth foundation) - all in proportion and not a fattie - yeay!

Smiles & Cooing All Round...

Meggie is so much more alert these days and we love it. The smiles, cooing and talking have been almost non-stop. It really is wonderful very and very rewarding especially when we have been through the newly / aptly named "witching hour" (thanks sis, it sums it up for us) for those not in the know or who haven't experienced our daughters lungs, it is the hour that happens to fall on daddy's arrival home from a hard day at the office between 7-8pm when our little Meggie-moo-mar decides to cry for a solid hour and nothing can stop her.... Some call it colic, we call it hell!!!!!

Look how beautiful she is when she smiles......

Solution to getting the housework done

Since this photo was taken we seem to have mastered getting dressed before midday! At the same time we have also mastered a new plan on getting the housework done and our daily chores without Megan crying - she doesn't like to be ignored or on her own for too long (something she gets off of her mummy, the looks come from daddy!)

6 Weeks Old & Growing!

I took Megan down to the Health Clinic yesterday to be weighed, and our little girl now weighs 10lbs 13oz at 6 and a bit weeks, obviously she has been enjoying the boobie juice :)

She has also suffered with baby acne over the last couple of weeks, poor little thing - at one stage I thought about getting the big hat out to cover her face, but the doctor has given her some special cream to help clear it up....

Lucky Girl, more visitors = more cuddles!

Our Meggie is so lucky to have had so many visitors and so many cuddles!!

First Smile!

Yeay, we had the first proper smile from Megan today and she is only 4 weeks and 4 days old, it melts your heart to see it...

We also went shopping and brought a new chair for Meggie-moo-mars to sit in (thanks to the kind gift from Lee's ladies at work) as she gets a bit bored lying on the floor... As you can see she loves it, especially as she can now sit with mummy whilst she is busy in the kitchen getting daddy's dinner ready after a hard day at the office earning the corn :)

3 Weeks Old

Is so perfect we cannot stop looking at her or taking photos.. She is so beautiful and we cannot believe she is 3 weeks old, it feels as though she has been with us for a lot longer... Sleep deprivation not yet kicked in for me but poor daddy is suffering a bit!

More visitors for Megan....

We have been so lucky with all the wonderful visitors that have come to see us over the last 3 weeks... We can't wait to be out and about to show her off to all our other friends and family who haven't yet made it over to sunny Sidders!
