Sunday 18th March - My First Mothers Day!

Little Troublemaker!

In some cultures this picture could be offensive, but in others it could be deemed funny - in our house its thought of as crazy!

Anya's Birthday gift to Grandpa

Anya gave a bottle of Rare Champagne
(Veuve clicquot, 1988 from France).
to her Grandpa on his birthday
Of course she got a lot of help in the
selection from her dad and mom!!
Thank you Anya---and dad and mom too!!!

Teeth...!

Anya's bottom two teeth have come out and are more visable now, but no others have made an appearance.. yet!

Foodwise, she seems to like most fruits and stuffed parathas (with rice crispies).

Meet Quack Quack!

Crawling Action Shot!

Anya can now crawl in short bursts, she seems to be developing well - prefers to stand (aided and unaided!) but gets very frustrated when she cant get to what she wants!

Another Wild Hair Day!

Duane Chikkappa Visits!

Duane Chikkappa came all the way from Toronto to visit, play and hang with me... firstly I thought it was Uncle Dean so I cried, then cried some more. Finally realising it wasnt him, I was happy to play :)

Go Liverpool Go!

Bad Hair Day!

Curly whirly hair day! I get that from my mom :)

Lunchtime!

Food Update:
Anya has now moved from pureed foods to the more lumpy stuff.. she likes all fruit anything sweet but doesnt like RICE (her mum and ajji are looking to change that!) but she does like yoghurt!

They Start Very Early These Days..!

Anya tries to break her daddy's laptop.. 3 keys done another 80 to go!

Who Shrunk My Mouth?

 

Look Who's Teething!

 

A couple of weeks back we noticed Anya's teeth are starting to make an appearance, along with all the drooling, tears and pain!

Baby In Red! - Happy Valentines Day!

Mom and Dad are finally back from their mega long trip to Antarctica. They said they had fun, but they missed me.

All I could do is smell penguin poop...

Deep in thought....

Lunch!

Not so much fun.

Swing!

Biscuit time!

If you give me a biscuit I promise I will take small bites! Honest!

Strike a pose!

My Workout Regime

Look Who's Oiling!

 
Ajji is in town, let the responsibility transfer begin! 

Look At My Ears!

 
Earlier in the week, Mum took me to Claire's to get my ears pierced... Cried for 2 mins! 

Its A Sunny Sunday!

 
Its been sometime since we have given you guys an update on whats going on. So here goes.. Last Sunday night (7th Jan) we attempted to try the Ferber Sleep Method. Night one, Anya took 45 minutes to go down; Night two, 10 mins; Night three, 2 mins; Night four, 2 mins; Night five, 10 mins; Night six 5 mins. On all bar the first night both parents had great sleep!

In summary, the method works and has allowed us to remove the dependency of a pacifier/dummy. 

A,.....B,.....?

 
A moment of intense thinking.... silence please.
