Charlie - 11 weeks

Carla and Charlie having cuddles
Casey and Charlie chilling on the couch
Charlie will actually be 12 weeks old this next Monday!! Crazy!!!
That also means his 3 month immunisations are coming up too.
We should be receiving his NZ passport this week and we have an appointment in Auckland for his United States one so they will all be ready for our big trip!! (4 weeks until we go)
All is going well and Charlie has started to sleep through the night and seems to be doing it more and more. Sometimes he can do the straight 12 hours and then other times he does 10 hours then goes right back down for another 2 so no complaints here!!
He hasn't been weighed lately but will be in a couple weeks so imagine he has put on another pound or so for sure.
He is changing everyday and loves to giggle and laugh aswell as stick his tongue out.
He is such a sweetheart and we love watching him grow up!!
I head back to work sometime in November and Casey is full on at his work. He is actually up in Auckland for a couple days at the moment for a course.
Until next time.....take care. XX

Charlie - 9 Weeks Old

Bath Time - love it!!
Smiling for the camera!


Tummy time with Dad - I am so strong!!

Wow - where does the time go!!

All is well with Charlie and he just keeps growing and changing everyday!

He now weighs just over 13 pounds and has grown out of all his new born clothes and has started wearing 3 months sizes.

He is getting easier to take places as if he gets grizzly in his stroller or car seat it is pretty easy to keep him occupied enough to keep him calm which is nice.

Coffee group with my antenatal group has been going every Monday which is really nice and Charlie is by far the biggest (tallest mostly) in the group! This coming Monday I will be hosting it here at our house as one week we go to a cafe and the next we rotate through everyones homes which is nice.

Its now just under seven weeks until we go to California so we are super excited!! Still working on Charlies passports but will get them sorted in time I'm sure.

Take Care.Xx

Charlie - 8 weeks old

A smile for Dad.


All is going well with Charlie with each and every day bringing something new!

He is just awesome and we are getting lots of smiles and giggles from him now which is so rewarding especially for Casey after a long day at work.

We are getting out and about more and visiting lots of people.

Nana and Grandad go to Europe for a long vacation on Thursday so we have been spending loads of time with them.

Tomorrow Charlie gets weighed again so it will be interesting to see what his weight is as he was 12 pounds and 4 ounces last weigh in.

We are getting excited for our trip to California which is in 7 weeks now! Working on getting Charlies passports taken care of as he will have both NZ and US passports.

Take Care xx
