HAPPY EASTER

Happy (Belated) Easter Everyone!

So what has our favourite little blogger been up to this week? Here’s a quick recap…

Our Mother’s group visited a new indoor play centre in Five Dock which provided the babies with lots of fun and plenty of new things to discover. And us Mums were looked after too, thanks to the café lounge area – ensuring we could enjoy a well earned latte or two.

It’s amazing to see the babies already in high chairs and eating lunch together – it really doesn’t seem that long ago that we were four brand new and confused Mum’s trying to work our little creatures out.

With both Ash and I on somewhat of a health kick at the moment (must loose those baby kilos), we enjoyed many a walk over the last week to the local café and back (skim lattes only I assure you!)

And to give her a break from all the coffees – she simply can’t sit still long enough these days.

We visited the local park to try out the swings and slides.

Not sure who had more fun, Kaitlyn or Dad?

Dad is pictured here relishing in the fact he beat his 6 month old daughter at noughts and crosses.

We are getting closer and closer to Kaitlyn sitting up unassisted. At the moment, I am right there behind her to catch her when she slides off to the side.

Dad also serves as a good lean to.

She is increasingly more confident, balancing on her little behind, loving being upright and is now quickly frustrated when lying on her back.

Speaking of which (frustration that is), one of the girls from work mentioned what a happy baby Kaitlyn was - “always smiling” was how she was described. (No, that’s not the frustrating part). It occurred to me that perhaps I was misrepresenting the child somewhat, she does get frustrated and cranky, and when she does, you certainly know about it... So, Kumu, here is Kaitlyn’s grumpy, tantrum face.

She has certainly learnt the art of tantrum throwing. At the moment, we seem to get a good one once she placed in her walker to have something to eat.

This week, we also received a visit from Dylan, who came over to play while his Mum and Dad were at work. As usual, Kaitlyn was spellbound by the little man, while he took no notice what-so-ever, except for the occasional swat away as she reached out to grab him.

While they didn’t manage to play together just yet, Kaitlyn did enjoy playing with Dylan’s toys – luckily he was happy enough to share.

Easter was lovely, with Grandma and Grandad and Jai and Mim coming over for lunch. The weather held out enough for us to be able to enjoy our feast outside…

Kaitlyn enjoyed her food more so than anyone else – having her first prawn and her first mussel. (I’m so glad I dressed her in white!)

And finally, they say history repeats itself…

Another week, another Eels game, another chance to get in some serious napping. (Unfortunately, also another loss to bear)

Another week, another jolly jumper session. Shame Mum is yet to learn that putting anything remotely interesting on Kaitlyn’s feet will cause her to succumb to distraction.

Catch you next week…
