Happy Valentine's Day

Grandma Kerwin sent over a gorgeous little Valentine's day outfit for Liam. At first I don't think he was impressed being dressed up in a kind of girly looking outfit, but then he was playing around like nobody's business!


We started baby yoga on Tuesday. I just love this class! I saw a few of the mums that I took Pregnancy yoga with. We got to meet each other's babies and talk all about the births and general mum stuff. It's amazing how you will just share rather personal details with people that you really don't know very well! It's totally packed, but great to see all of the little babies... our Liam, of course, is the most gorgeous!!! We start off by singing a little song to welcome all of the babies, it's so cute. We do a bit of yoga for the mums and then get active with the little ones. I didn't know half of the songs, but after the first round was able to join in. I didn't realise there was such a difference in nursery rhymes/ songs across the Atlantic. We ended the session with a bit of relaxation and Liam fell asleep as he lay on my tummy.


Other news... we've moved into our new house (I'll get some pictures posted up when I get it organised a bit better. It's a complete building site! There are about another 20 houses and a few apartments still being finished off... should hopefully be a bit better by Easter. We moved in all of the furniture and boxes on Sunday and spent our first night in the house. The blinds didn't arrive until Monday afternoon... so the builders nearly got a nice show (although not that nice post baby!) The spare bedroom furniture was in on Tuesday evening and Wednesday the new kitchen tablte. Granny Reynolds was up most of the week and together we have nearly finished unpacking and sorting out the house! There are tons of boxes left, but I'm leaving that for Oliver to enjoy this weekend when he gets back from London. Right, that's all for now...

2 Months

A big 2 month happy birthday to our wee man! I say wee, but there's nothing really wee about him. He went for his first round of injections on Thursday and did not enjoy them one bit! It broke my heart to hear his screams- he was so upset after the first jab and then the next one made him cry even harder. He was weighed and measured and generally checked over by the doctor. Our big boy is up to 13lbs, 13.5ozs (just under a stone) and 62cm long (just under 25ins)! Everyone always asks if he's 4 or 5 months old. His 0-3 month clothes are starting to get a bit tight on him and I think I might need to get the 3-6 month ones out. Here are some photos for your enjoyment...
Babies R US in the UK are having a beautiful baby competition. The winners get a professional photo shoot and will be featured in the new magazine. I am going to enter our Liam. I'm thinking about using this photo...
or maybe this one...
Whatever I use, I know he'll be a winner!! He is so gorgeous!!!
