Four and a half months old

Finger Food!





Jacob - As you can tell from these photos I'm just about fading away because Mum and Dad are not feeding me enough, so I've had to resort to trying to eat my fingers!!!! It doesn't matter which fingers or how many. As you can see sometimes I even try to fit my whole hand in my mouth, but unfortunately I can't quite manage it. Mum and Dad think it's quite funny when I end up gagging myself!!!!

ExerSaucer



Here's our latest new toy - an ExerSaucer. It arrived a few weeks ago, and like most things these days was in a box in HEAPS of pieces. Mum was going to wait for Dad to get home from work, but as usual couldn't wait, so she found one of Dad's screwdrivers and set to work putting it all together. She did a pretty good job as far as we can tell!

We're still not quite strong enough to hold our bodies up in this by ourselves so Mum and Dad pack some hand towels around us to keep us upright.

Mum and her lads


Sam - This picture was taken at Nana & Grandad's in Luggate. That's me on the right.
We're almost getting too heavy for Mum to carry us both at once - Dad keeps telling her off and saying to put one of us down!!!

Shower fun



Mum reckons these photos are just awesome cos they show how much our Dad loves us to bits!!!! A couple of nights each week we manage to sneak into the shower with Dad. He enjoys this time with us as much as we love it, but he does say that once we are soaped up that we're like slippery fish to hang on to!!

It's a bit of a mission when it comes time to swap the dry boy over with the wet boy in the shower but Mum and Dad are getting a pretty good system going now.

Jake - P.S I'm the one nearly touching noses with Dad

Tummy time




We are getting stronger and stronger on our tummies now, but still don't like to spend too long like this.
