Just chillin'

Charlotte hangin out with her cousin Gracie.


Gracie wins the wrestling competition.


Phil went fishing with Poppy and Brett and managed to catch some fish ... and a squid.

Blue steel!


Charlotte doesn't stop using her legs when she has floor time - makes sense given how much she used to kick me when in utero.

Lovin' the shirt.


Gracie now seems so big next to Charlotte.




Sleeping in with Frenzal.


Frenzal has been really good around Charlotte - except for all the licking.




Frenzal still manages to squeeze in for a cuddle.


Just hangin' around.


Well said Charlotte.

Three Months Old!

Charlotte has transitioned into her cot but it still seems way too big for her
Having a face-off with her toy elephant


"I like what I see," she says.
Some competition for Tori.


Just chillin' with my nanny!


Cheeky monkey
Cheeky monkey again
The shirt says it all
The jolly jumper is a new experience for Charlotte. She doesn't really know what it's all about except that it makes alot of noise.

Out and About




















Here are some recent pics of Charlotte. She has developed her own little personality now. Very generous with her smiles and really noticing everything that goes on around her. She loves getting outside and looking at nature and loves watching television (Dr Phil, Bold and the Beautiful). We often put the music channel on and dance together around the living room (but only when no one is around!).

Some old and some new

Here's a few from today when we went for lunch at Hog's Breath Cafe in Aspley for a belated birthday celebration for Phil and Bec. Though Phil wasn't impressed that he didn't get a balloon.
Charlotte's fighting, fighting off going to sleep.... zzzzz


Some Daddy burping action.


And here's a few more from Mother's Day too.

Two months old and doing well

Not exactly how I pictured myself celebrating my 30th ...


Charlotte is smiling alot more but you have to be quick with the camera!




Aunty Kate and Miss Charlotte



Hangin' with nanny (before she broke her arm!)




Cousin Imogen can't seem to get enough of Charlotte


Poppy with his girls




Pretty in pink for mum's birthday




Charlotte has been out and about alot more in recent times - a few trips to the coast and out to lunch for my 30th. She is doing really well. She is now 4.94 kg (which is about the 50th percentile) and 60cm long (75th percentile). She had her two month immunisations today and cried her little heart out.

Mother's Day


Frenzal always sit beside me when I need to feed Charlotte

Cuddling Charlotte is the best Mother's Day present of all!

Daddy' burping skills in action









We celebrated my first Mother's Day by getting together with my family for lunch. The size of our family is growing every year. Charlotte has lot of cousins who are ready to lead her astray.
