Poor wee Cady

Aaah ... my poor baby had her immunizations today: there she was: kicking and stretching and then her Mama holds her still while a nasty lady pokes a BIG needle in her little thigh, turns her over and does the same in the other side. I couldn't pick her up quick enough to let her know Mommy loved her ... then she had some MBJ (Magic Booby Juice) to make her feel better.

Shame Maddy was very concerned and didn't like a strange lady touching 'her baby' - got quite upset when Cady started crying and tried to get between the nurse and Cadence. I had to reassure her that Mommy was there and Cady was ok.

Cadence had a good sleep this afternoon and I gave her a whole 2mls of paracetamol - she has gone to sleep in her bed without too much fussing today and is getting so good at putting herself to sleep. Even went into her room, at one stage, to get something and she was awake - But, she fluttered her eyelids and went back to sleep. So encouraging to watch.

Cady is doing so well!

Well, darling number two is such a big girl - she has slept through the night for just about a week ... spending about 12hrs in her bed. This is quite a feat at her age. However, she feeds on average 2 hourly during the day - this gap should start growing soon as her wee tummy can hold more.

Last week, she was weighed by the plunket nurse and was 4kgs exactly and is 52cm long - her big sister, Maddy was 51cm and 3.15kgs, at birth - so Cadence is getting chubby for her length.
Maddy really loves her baby sister and kisses her, hugs her and is always so gentle with her.

Daddy just loves his girls!

Cady has smile a few time ... she has a stunning smile, going to be a heart breaker - however, I'm the only one to have been blessed with her smiles. Every so ofter she coos, it just melts my heart and makes me smile just thinking about it.

Sometime I find it so unreal that I have to health, beautiful girls .... I do love them so!!
