Clinic update

Grace has been weighed again today and she is now 14lbs 4ozs. Since finding her thumb a week or so ago she now doesn't seem to want to let go! The health visitor advised there is little or nothing we can do to dissuade her at this stage so we'll just have to live with it for the time being.

Sleeping like a baby!

Update

Well, as you can see from the picture below Grace sat unsupported for the first time, luckily Dad was there with his camera to capture the moment. We all think this was a bit of a fluke as Grace hasn't been able to sit like this again yet. We've had a couple of buzy weekends with cousin Cori & Steve coming up last weekend and Grannie & Grandad with the Tinsley clan this weekend. Grace coped with all the attention very well and didn't mind being passed around for cuddles one bit!

NEWS FLASH!! Grace sits unsupported for first time. :)

Clinic Day

Grace had her 2nd injections this Tuesday. No ill effects so far this time - she's just been a bit tired. She now weighs 13 lbs 8ozs. As you can see from the photo she is getting stronger and now likes being on her front for a short time. She is still dribbling loads but no sign of any teeth yet!.

This is such hard work!

Right! Now all I have to do is figure out how to put this in my mouth.

It's a hard all this playing and eating. Time for bed please Mummy

I Love my playmat

Weekly update

No visit to clinic this week as Mummy had her Ante-Natal group reunion. It was nice to see all the other Mum's and their Babies. I was the oldest baby - but not the biggest! After that get together some of the Mum's came to our house for coffee which was great as I had some new play mates. I am still practicing to roll over - it's very hard work!

Weekly update

Phew, isn't it hot! Summer has finally arrived with a heatwave and we're all struggling to keep cool. This week Mummy learnt how to do baby massage which I am now beginning to like very much. This week at clinic I weighed 12lbs 1 1/2 ozs. I didn't put on much weight but that's probably down to the heat. I had an exciting day yesturday because I went to the shops in Bristol with Mummy and Nanny and Nanny took me for a walk in the park while Mummy was at the hairdressers. It was a lovely day out but it was very hot.

Love from Grace

Hand Game 

Weekly update

Hi All,

This week at clinic I weighed in at 11 lbs 13ozs, which Mum & Dad think is really good. Daddy plays a new game with me now which I love where he moves his hand in the air and gets closer and closer and then tickles me! I have been sucking my hands lots and also kicking about on my playmat. I am starting to practice rolling over (just arching my back at the moment) but Mummy thinks it will be a while yet before I can roll over by myself.

Love form Grace.

Big day at Clinic

Grace and I had a big day at the clinic this week. It was our "8 week" check, the Dr said Grace had a very srong back & neck for her age - which means she will have no trouble sitting up straight on her own soon. She now weighs 11 lbs 6ozs. It was also time for her first jabs - she coped with them very well and was only a bit upset for a short while afterwards. After a dose of Calpol she still slept all through the night - what a star she is!
