3 months

Wow - where have the past 3 months gone? They seem to have flown by so quickly and it depressed me the other day when I realised I am halfway through maternity leave already. I've been trying to think of ways to extend it or maybe go back to work a couple of days a week at first. It seems such a shame to miss out on this time just to go to work but I guess that's the way of the world these days.

You are getting so big and definitely have a very strong personality. You don't worry about letting us know that you're tired/hungry/bored/upset or just feel like shouting. Unfortunately you are a little ill with a virus at the mo and so you are getting even more cuddles that usual if that's at all possible. We are about 2 weeks away from xmas as well and I'm trying to convince your dad to put the xmas tree up soon as I am sure that you will love the lights.

We are still going to the group on Monday afternoon and we are having a christmas party with a secret santa gift exchange for all of you babies. Then on Tuesday we are going to the last ever party at Auntie H's current house (sob) as she's moving on Friday. It's all so sad and the end of an era but I'm sure we'll be spending lots of time at the new house anyway.

So you can now sleep 7 hours through the night - usually from around midnight to 7am but that can vary. You have started to turn over whenever we put you on you tummy and also sometimes when we're changing your nappy and you're in a temper. And boy do you have a temper - just like your mum!

We have been spending quite a bit of time with Millie and Clara, going shopping and for coffee and you babies are starting to pay a bit more attention to each other. Really very cute when you are both in your car seats in the back of the car.

Next post will prob be around xmas and we'll put up pics of you dressed as a christmas pudding - you're going to hate us when you're bigger!
