Millie's photo page

Matt has set up a photo page for Millie
I've added the the photo page to the links section on the blog so that you can easily check out the pictures from there.
Enjoy!

1 month old!

Millie is one month old today! We celebrated by getting this rather delicious cupcake, sang Happy Birthday (which she slept through), and then Matt and I took one for the team and ate the cupcake for her.

Grandparents and Millie

British Granny and Grandpa and American Grandma and Grandpa have been hanging out with Millie for the past few days. They have been keeping themselves useful by treating us to lots of delicious food. Our freezer is like a treasure chest now! Sad that they can't all stay longer - but will see them all again in a few months.

Happy 4th Weekend!

Millie is half American and half British, but on July 4th weekend she is 100% cool in her outfit. The onesie is from Auntie Lucy and the red and white cowgirl socks (really) were a last minute purchase by Mum and Dad.
Happy 4th!

Life begins at 40... weeks!

Amelia Poppy (Millie) was born on June 12th at 12.25pm. Right on the 40 week mark, and just in time for lunch. She was described variously by the nurses as cute, vigorous, alert and did I mention cute? Matt and I are very tired, but very happy. Millie is already the apple of Daddy's eye; he's going to buy her a pony.

She's about a week old above, sleeping in her big-girl-crib.

Induction news!

We've been booked in for an induction on Thursday, 12th June at 3.30a.m., yes, a.m.

Of course in order to get to the 12th we have to get past the 9th, which is currently birthday of Susan, Lucy, Granny and, I believe, another Auntie on Matt's side. So provided nugget resists the strange lure of June 9th and the appointment stands on the 12th we will be in a race against time to deliver before Friday 13th!

Also (rather ominously) thunderstorms forecast all next week!

Sunday evening cocktails

This was us at the Cocktail Lounge at Oak Street Beach, enjoying the Sunday evening sun last weekend. It's only a 5 minute walk from the house so am hoping to spend some of my maternity leave here...
