Millie at the weekend II

Although she is a long way off crawling Millie still manages to get around. She managed to roll off the gymini and shuffle across to eyeball her chum. She's stepping it up a gear - Mummy and Daddy really need to keep up.

Millie at the weekend I

Since I've been back at work I have been a bit delinquent on the blogging front. Here are some pics to make up for it. The weather is gorgeous in Chicago at the moment so we were out at the weekend soaking up the sun.

All wrapped up!

Glorious sunshine at the weekend, but getting cooler. Millie was toasty on Michigan Avenue toted by Daddy in her autumn outfit.

4 months old!

Seems unbelievable that she's 4 months old already. To celebrate we put her party frock on and went out for a cupcake. Sadly Millie's rapidly growing list of talents doesn't yet include processing solid food so I did the decent thing and ate it for her.

Beautiful day out in Chicago

The weather here was fantastic today 77f (that's 25c for the rest of the world) and cloudless blue sky. We walked down to Millennium Park en famille and snapped ourselves in the reflection of the bean.



The park was all gorgeous autumnal shades as the leaves are changing.

Timberrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

We're not quite able to sit up just yet...

We're back!

Well it's been a while since we posted, Millie and I have been stricken with daycare lurgy. We're both on the mend now and there's lots to report. The best news is that Millie has a cousin now! Rebecca Lily Gill was born this morning and looks adorable in her first photo. We're looking forward to meeting her at Thanksgiving.

We gave up on swaddles as soon as we found Millie in her crib one night rotated 180 degrees with the swaddle tangled up around her waist. We switched to sleep sacks which she's wearing as she (really) enjoys her mobile in the movie below.
