To all the girls I love....


Well last week was a busy week for me... I went out for a lunchdate with Mika on Wednesday and then for a romantic stroll, with our chaperones (our mum's and the dogs) keeping a close eye on us.
Thursday I met up with my new ladyfriend Marion whose Mum and Dad brought her to Boston for her holidays

Friday was a very busy day as mum took me to the mum's group, Mika and her mum went as well. Later on Maia and her mum came and had lunch at our house. We all hung out together for the afternoon. The big brothers Hachi and Oscar kept an eye on us and giving us kisses when we weren't expecting it. Doggie kisses are a bit smelly...

Saturday was a big adventure as mum and dad took me to a book shop to listen to a man read out loud. I just sat in mums arms and smiled at the nice lady who was sitting beside her. When the reading was over everyone laughed loudly and so did I. Mum and dad were impressed with my big laugh. I gave myself the hiccups, which I do a lot. I got to meet Dad's cousin Nick and his wife-to-be Crystal and they brought me some cool clothes.... The fun didn't stop there, we went to see Laura and Gregg who are going to be mum and dad to my new ladyfriend Madelyn Rose ( whenever she arrives) and we went to the posh shopping centre and then we all went out for dinner. I just sat in my car seat and watched everyone eat, Mum gave me my dinner later on. It was yummy.
Sunday I got to meet my great-grandmother(dad's grandma). She was very nice, she gave me a bottle and loads of hugs and kisses. Mum says I get to meet my great-grandfather in a few weeks and when we go to Cork in the summer I get to meet my other great-grandparents...I can't wait :)

Smile... you're on candid camera




So this week little man has taken to smiling more.. see his mischievious little smile in this pic, so of course we've been trying to capture the smiling on camera and video, might take a small while before I post a video (need to figure out how to edit etc).

Nicky had a little bit of a cold this week,but he still managed to mantain his social schedule with a lunchdate with Mika on Tuesday and a playdate on Friday with Maia ( which he slept through much to her dismay). He also managed to squeeze a trip to the dentist with me on friday morning. We had to unfortunately had to miss his first St. Patrick's day trip to the pub, but we did watch the New York parade on the telly. Nicky liked the pipe band music, he was kicking his legs along it. In a few years he'll be able to enjoy the fry that his mum and dad had for their dinner (not the exact fry that we had...D) and also in a few years he will enjoy his easter eggs. Me and Nicky made our trip a few weeks ago to the supermarket that sells Irish food and we (me) stocked up on easter eggs and breakfast food and of course some crisps.
Hope everyone had a good Easter!

Nick-Nic exposed !!!




As you can see, "mad-eye Nicky" likes to go out in the carrier with his mum. Since the evenings haven't been too cold we all go out for a walk around the neighbourhood, Nicky doesn't see much since he gets totally bundled up. Oscar on the other hand loves going around the block for his walk as he always wants to see if he can meet his buddies..

At Nicky's doctor's appointment earlier this week, he got his shots (see previous blog entry). He's now 11lb 11oz and is 22 inches long, so now his height is different from the one stated on his passport..oops! The phrase "big head" can also be applied to him, as his head grew 3 cm in about 5 weeks. He's more vocal these days with little giggles and coos when he's happy and grunts/burps when he's doing his normal (and regular... eat your heart out Papa Kattar) bodily functions. Sometimes when he's spitting up he does little spit-up bubbles

Friday morning we went to the mum's group and he met up with his friend Lulu and they played on their bellies. Later on Maia and her mum came by and the two babies had a bite to eat and napped...

Today it was pouring rain so it was get the house clean day...and Nicky and Sam hung out on the couch with Sam singing songs to him with him giggling in delight...

OUCH!!!


Got jabbed with needles today... definitely didn't need that.  I'm beginning to think this whole Doctor thing may prove to be a real pain in the bum (no pun intended).
