So finaly an up date



We have been jumping for joy

And giving lots of kisses



Having lots of smiles....Hamish just loves his big sister and follows her with his eyes everywhere she goes.


Ara is trying on all the dress ups


And looking more and more angel like every day

Hamish's favorite past time is sleeping. We've managed to get a handle on the colic with my diet changes so we are getting much more sleep now...in fact its almost great (as you can have with a new born)...but I long for cheese, pasta, bread, crackers...but not long now.


Hamish is really fitting the name I feel. For me Hamish has always been a big person...Dad laughs and says if he keeps on going the way he is he'll be having to duck to get through the doorways.


We are into 3-6months clothes already and even some of the t-shirts I've had to start putting aside...oh the beginning of more clothes. $$$
Dave was not too keen on the pack that I made for Ara...I used it as a backpack while pregnant with Hamish so we could get up the back of our property (she was not too keen either as "I'm a big girl now") But this 'pack' Mei Tai is just great...we also need to keep Hamish upright to keep the colic at bay.


I get stopped down town by many of the old lady friends of Nana and they all say "Oh a purple hat"....hey its a middle colour like yellow, green or orange...isn't it?


This is Kate our wonderful midwife...sad that we've not got a good photo of you Kate we'll have to catch up in the future. Kate really took the bull by the horns (bull aka Megan)....Ara asked the other day "Why couldn't Kate come here (Home) when Hamish needed to come out and get him out here"....I told her I was too chicken.
Kate is an Attachment Parent her self so she has many of the same views as Dave and myself and it made choices so much easier.
I'm sure many of you know how much I like to plan things...and as much as what you can plan birth...it all went as I dreamed to the point that we got to come home in time to have an afternoon nap with Ara.


Dave here with a few work calls and me trying to keep up with the house cleaning ;-)

Well its been a bit hard learning how to type again with one hand or while breastfeeding but there we are.
Ara has become quite the photographer...and Hamish is happy to smile
I hope to keep up to date now...so do hang in there.
Love to you all
