Our Wonderful Boys

I just thought I would post some recent photos of our boys to show how much they are growing up every day. Lochie's concepts of the world around him is growing every day and his attention to detail surprises me every day. He picks out things (usually diggers & trucks) outside the car window that I haven't even seen and describes them to a T. Zach continues to grow and is using his hands to grab more things and of course try and put them in his mouth. He also has found his voice and is now making some lovely sounds that bring a smile to our faces every time we hear them. He's also starting sleeping longer and pretty much sleeps through the night which is great for me.

Zach's first wedding

Well on Saturday Jason, Zach and I headed off to our friends Lisa and Craigs wedding at Mt Tamborine. Lochie stayed overnight with Nanna & Grandad but we had to bring Zach as I'm still feeding him. He was the perfect baby at the wedding and although I was nervous about whether he would go to sleep for the night ok he was wonderful and went to sleep without a problem while the other 3 babies at the wedding were fighting going to sleep. Due to Zach being so good Jason and I then got to enjoy the reception of the wedding which was also lovely. It was a late night though and we didn't get home until after 11.30pm. Zach then let us sleep in until 8am after waking for a feed at 5.45am and then going back to sleep. I have attached some photos of us at the wedding and I especially had to include a photo of my wonderful sister Roslyn and her husband Greg. Ros was a bridesmaid at the wedding and although my sister doesn't usually like wearing dresses and getting dressed up with make-up and having her hair done she looked absolutely stunning! Greg seemed pretty impressed also and so he should - she was the prettiest bridesmaid in my opinion - love you my wonderful sister!

Another Family Update

Well my dear sister pointed out that I haven't updated my Blog in a while so here I am. Sorry for being slack. The most recent events for us is that our little man Zach turned 3mths on Wed 10th October. I have included a recent photo of him. He's growing up so much and I can't believe he's been with us for a quarter of a year already. We had him measured and weighed again this week at the baby clinic and he's now 7.42kg and 65.5cm long. He's in the 97% for both his weight and height with these numbers. No wonder my poor back is struggling to lift him sometimes. Lochie is also great although he was home from Kindy one week with spots all over him but he's no longer spotty and went back to Kindy this week. He's now in the next class up which is for kids 2.5 - 3.5 years old so he's getting used to new teachers although he still sees his last teachers in the playground as they share the same area outside. I have also included some photos of his recent imagination at work. One is of him sitting on a blanket with his teddy having a picnic with some play food that we recently bought him and the other is of a lego creation that he made - he said it was Noah's Ark. We also went to Australia Zoo yesterday and had a great day. It was raining in the morning and we thought we may have to cancel going but it cleared up to be a great day. I think Lochie was overwhelmed with everything to look at and surprisingly touched a few of the animals. He also went on a small merry-go-round twice with Nanna once and then Daddy. He loved the shuttle bus that went around the zoo - we went on it three times he loved it so much. It will be great to go back in a few years when Zach can appreciate the Zoo as well.
