The Four AmiGohs

Cadence is now 6 months old. She loves to roll around the playmat and reaches for toys so she can play with them. It looks like she might be learning to crawl because she has been lifting her bum and squirming forward. Also her progress with solids is going well. She’s not quiet having 3 meals a day yet but at least she is showing more interest.

Check out Cadence’s month 6 photos HERE.

As for the little man he is cheeky as ever. He talks non stop and likes to negotiate with us. It’s a constant battle between Mummy/Daddy versus Linden. Recently he likes to sing. He likes to do this especially during his nap and bedtime. Such a cutie. I guess he’s now old enough to sing himself to sleep and has taken over our role

Check out Linden’s month 35 and 36 photos HERE.

Linden turned 3 on Friday the 13th of January! Nothing unlucky happened fortunately and we held a mini-celebration with a cupcake and candles to mark the occasion. This was just the prelude to the full blown birthday party the next day. We held it at a local park with a bunch of his friends. The weather threatened to be wet but luckily there wasn’t any rain.

In usual fashion he was a little timid to start but once we got into the festivities, it was on for young and old. There was slides, swings, running around, cycling, lollies, pizza, cake and presents! He got some awesome presents (some of which his Daddy will play for him by proxy). At the end of the party, we all packed up, went home and everyone crashed for a well-deserved nap. Best 3rd birthday ever.

Photos are HERE. Note that the latest batch of pictures are now located in the “Kid’s Pics 2012” album.

A bunch of new pictures are up! Cadence has a gallery for her 4th and 5th month which brings us to about mid December. Linden also has a block of two months  – 33rd and 34th month – but that takes his to mid November. Click the hyperlinks against the month numbers in the previous sentences to get to them.

Merry Xmas and Happy New Year!

Cadence is now 5 months old, so it’s time to introduce her to some solids. She had her first taste of some baby rice cereal today. And as expected she scrunched her face and spat most of it out. Surprise? not really but at least I got a good photo of her. She also tried some water as well but I think the cup was more interesting. Round 2 tomorrow, better luck maybe

Cadence hit another milestone recently – she rolled over! And it all happened on a very auspicious day, 11/11/11! She started with a roll to her left to land on her tummy. Then later was spotted rolling to her right. We can’t leave her unattended on the change table or on the bed anymore as she can roll off.

In other news she has also become rather smiley and is doing lots of laughing as well over the last few weeks (possibly further back than that). And she looks absolutely gorgeous doing it.

The flipside is that she has been crying a little more during bedtimes. I remember when Linden was probably close to her age and for a period, he started getting cranky and crying around the 9pm-10pm window and was inconsolable. I hope Cadence doesn’t go down the same path!

Cadence has just hit 3 months old and I’m don with the batch of photos for month 3. Click HERE to cop a squiz.

She really is a little tubber in relative terms (i.e. compared with Linden) and is lots of fun to squeeze   Enjoy!

So we’re into the back end of September now which means Cadence is 2 months old and Linden is 32 months old. They have their respective photo galleries HERE and HERE.

Now because we’re into bi-monthly pics for Linden, you’ll see some photos where he is with Cadence in the hospital just after birth.

Some highlights…

Cadence is nearly a couple of months old now but I’ve only just managed to get the month 1 photos finished. Find them HERE. The last few photos in this set are of her 1 month celebration!

And yet some more. You’ll probably be sick of seeing Linden by now. I think I am.

But wait, there’s more!
