Merry christmas

Merry christmas everyone !!!!

My little star!!!!!

We had Charlie Christened last week , it was a fantastic day .

He smiled and cooed and posed f0r so many photos lol

There was no crying at the font and all he could do was blow raspberries at the vicar, he was very entertaining.

Afterwards we had a jazz band called the mcNorton quintet who were great.

Ended up with lots of people back at ours, drinking and being merry into the night.

We thoroughly enjoyed getting our families and freinds together and had a wonderful time.

Tunisia

This is Charlies first swim in Tunisia, he abs loved it. Hammamet was gorgeous and we stayed in an all incusive 5 star hotel , what luxury!!!!

I have to admit when we got out of the airport I thought wed gone to Iraq, the whole of the countryside looked like it had been bombed!!!

But an hour or so later we entered the secure compound of our hotel and it was absolubtly gorgeous.

Amidst generous lush gardens and its own private beach we were spoilt for choice as for where to visit first. 2 swimming pools one outside heated one and 3 bars. 2 lovely restuarants a seperate breakfast room and lunch it really was an experience.

Anyway back to earth with a bump and back to work next week ho hum Ill have to start looking forward to the next holiday lol

What a little bloater!!!

Well Charlie is now 6 months old and eating us out of house and home.Weetabix , bananas, cauliflower cheese you name it he eats it.

Hes gaining weight at a ridiculous rate and really loves all his home cooked organic meals.

He can sit on his own for a few seconds but then falls to the side and he has teeth starting to move within his gums.

He blows raspberries and sticks his tongue out and is certainly very entertaining to watch, we don't need a t.v anymore lol.

Charlie age 10 weeks

What a little smiler!!!!

This is Charlie at 10 weeks with his first big smile for the camera.

Hes growing so fast and changing every day.

An update

charlie/phoebe

Meet Charlie/ Phoebe which ever he /she turns out to be, had my 3d scan and was truly amazing.
Even bloke who was dead against havig one in the first place cooed and ahhhhh 'd over seeing his son/ daughter.

Little one yawned , pouted and smiled for about 30 mins, put its foot in its eye and generally intrigued us all despite shouts from the kids of " look its a crocodile" and "eweeeee its an alien " lol
Nice!!!anyway the experience made everything a bit more real and im getting excited to meet bubs and all the joys holding your new born on your arms can bring.
27 weeks and 1 day today have managed to go a week longer then I did with last one so every day that the big fella allows me to carry this little one is a blessing.
