Some more words

Butterlee (butterfly) and Aminold (animal) have been added to the repetoir. Dada is now Daddy more often than not. 's' is used for ownership a lot, especially if it's Daddy's. He always wants to go Ootsi (oustide) but when it's time to go inside he cracks it. He loves watching the maggies, otherwise known as loddle-loddles (after the sounds they make) and also the ra-ra-raaaas (Ravens).

There are heaps more. We've lost count of how many words he knows now. Aoife hasn't mastered much apart from aaahhhs, oooohs and guuurs yet, but she's a little chatter box, she'll catch him in no time.

Trucks



A picture of happiness: Tractor on t-shirt, truck beside him and reading his truck book (yes it is motorbikes you can see, but it is a transport book and it is called 'the truck book' in our house).

More Sleeping Stuff

Aoife too has moved to the big bed - not the same one! She's out-grown her bassinet and we've raised the cot for her. If Euey falls out of bed now there will be no matress to fall on so let's hope he's figured out how to stay in.
Will's so cute. He loves having the babies sleeping in with us. His all time favourite used to be when we had guests stay and we moved Euey's cot into our room alongside Aoife's bassinet. Knowing this I gave him warning when I thought Aoife should move out.
'I'm thinking of putting Aoife into the cot soon, is one night warning enough Willy?'
'One night?! How about one week?'
'Two nights?'
'Are you going to kick her out so easily when she moves out of the house as well?'
He eventually conceded that one night was enough warning, but we both missed her terribly last night. I slept the whole night with my hand resting on the baby monitor!


Great hair a few nights ago.


Last night.


Afternoon nap today.
