Back to school for daddy

Today was Jamie's first day back at work since Emily arrived. We have been spoiled having him around constantly for the past 2 weeks. I think Emily has missed his voice today, ( his silly songs, sounds and story times) I have tried my best but I just can replicate him.
We have had a lovely day. I think she has been zonked because of the heat and has slept for most of the day, but when awake she has been to visit Betty from church. She is an 86 year old lady who is awaitng heart surgery. Betty informed me today that she gave birth to both her children in her front room - in the house that she still lives in today! ( Her children are over 60!) What a lady!

We also enjoyed a picnic lunch with Auntie Dee, Emily slept through it all, but we adults enjoyed our sandwiches!
For all of you bath watchers out there, she is making progress. Last night we had to wake her up to have her bath and nightfeed. Either she pretended to be asleep to get over the upheaval and ordeal or she is just soothed by the whole experience! No more extreme baths! Look at that cute face!


She has grown so much she now can sit in her auntie Judith and Uncle David's bouncy chair complete with jungle and water music accompaiment! It is crazy how much she has grown. She gets weighed tomorrow, I am bracing myself to be told that she needs to go on a diet!

Emily was also pleased to see her grandad back from the southern hemisphere. After a delayed flight he arrived home from Brazil, with pressies and gifts from Cococabana beach! A little puppy called Russ! Again a busy couple of days!
