Sunday

Today was yet again another snowy Sunday. Have I mentioned how sick I am of snow? Mainly because I can never stay upright {even with grippy boots I fall about 3 times a week} but I am also seriously ready for some Vitamin D.

We had a nice lazy Sunday. I talked to my Mum for English Mothers day and then had an afternoon nap with Bennett. After that we headed to my sissys for dinner. She is right next door, so if she asks us to come over at 6:30...I start to get ready at 6:25. It's pretty awesome.

Since I am hoping this is the last snow fall before spring, I decided to take a picture of Bennett and us in the snow. Yes for the two seconds we spent outside today walking from our house to our next door neighbors {I'm so physically fit...I know}.

They turned out pretty cute though...



We then got to my sisters and her cats were dressed for the occasion. YES PEOPLE Ruby was literally in a dress and Zeplin in his hoodie. I almost died from cuteness. So naturally I ran back to my house to get my most well natured cat {Enzo} to have some play time with them. Not that we are crazy cat people or anything ;)





We started Sunday dinner tradition after Christmas this year and I am loving it. Every week we switch houses and it is so much fun. I love how Bennett and his Bro or Sis will grow up looking forward to Sunday dinners :) Anyways, talking of Bennett, I better go tend to the chubby little thing. Hope you had a good weekend! xxx

5 month update

Hiya everyone! Long time since I was last on here! Well we have been to England and are now back home. It was an amazing trip and I am proud to say my little Bennett didn't cry once the entire flight there or back. Am I a lucky Mummy or what? People actually thanked me when the flight was over for having such a well behaved little boy.

I also announced that we are expecting baby #2! WHAT A SURPRISE! We were not planning to have two babies so close together and when I first found out I was shocked. Now it has sunk in, I am very happy and know how lucky I will be to have two little blobs :) I've had so many people tell me how lovely it is to have two so close together {11 months apart if this baby is full term} and what good friends they will be. I am excited that this pregnancy is going so smooth so far too! I actually sometimes have to remind myself I am even pregnant!

So back to little Bennett! Here is his updated information for 5 months :)

Weight: 16 lbs
Routine: His routine is still good. He is sleeping through the night between about 9pm-7:30am and goes down for 2-3 naps during the day as well {depending on how long each of them are}.
Eating: Still on formula about 5-6 times a day. I have also now started to introduce some rice cereal. I think that he likes it....most of it ends up on what he's wearing though ;) 



Sizes: 3-6 month and 6 month clothing! 
Milestones: This baby is finally laughing! He also just learned how to roll {one way} and if we position him, he can sit up by himself for maybe a second. The other thing I have noticed is that he is much more verbal now. Of course it's all baby garble but its really sweet to hear his little voice!

Anyways, here are a couple pictures from his five month birthday. I also have so many lovely pictures from England that I will be adding to facebook hopefully sometime today! xxx
