12-weeks-miranda-in-the-jolly-jumper-scaledWe received two new toys this afternoon which we had won on eBay for Miranda… a jolly jumper and a swing.

Check out the action here:

Mum – FYI – I have finally managed to make up the cushions for the outside front porch chairs this evening with my new sewing machine – I think I’ve done an alright job … and am loving the machine! Thank you!

Playtime – Paul (33yrs) and Miranda (12 weeks)

12-weeks-scaled-daddy-playtime5Miranda wants us to hold her like this for as long as our arms will let us.  She loves being up and looking around whilst chatting away …  Paul took over playing when he came in from work tonight (Deborah’s arms were worn out – so she was off cooking dinner instead!)

Miranda’s first tracksuit …

12-weeks-scaled-tracksuit-3… we’re so proud :-)

Thanks Granny Phyllis … this fits her at long last (12 weeks old) and she wore it to our last mothers’ group session, weighing in at 6.1 Kgs!

Blowing Hot and Cold

It’s been mixed, funny weather here in Sydney recently.  We’ve had the wood slow burner on some days this week as it was so cold, and then all of a sudden we reached 32degrees today !!!  (The pool went up 7degrees in just a couple of hours !!!).

Luckily, thanks to Granny Phyllis, Grandma Denise and Guardian Jodi – Miranda had enough stylish outfits for both the seasons!  At 11 weeks old, she is more co-ordinated than we have ever been !!!

Notice in these pink photos her spotted tights match the design on her cardigan… (Thanks Granny Phyllis!)

Here we are together – Paul needed tissues and didn’t have enough hands so we found the ideal place for him to put them…

“Bling Bling” & Green Dress Day

mummy-and-miranda-in-green-dress5-scaledYou can see here that the fashionable Miranda is sporting her new christening bracelet (thanks Grandad and Gill!) and wearing her new green dress (thanks Howard and Becky!).  We had a nice day today, Miranda had cuddles with Mummy and spent time with Wellington before we all headed off to Dee Why beach for a hot chocolate and a stroll in the pram.
