Again, another very busy week with lots of visitors and tasks to cross off the list.
For George, this meant his six week check with Plunket and his six week injections with our GP. Here's George being weighed by Joan Springgay, the same Plunket nurse we have with Joseph. George weighed in at 4.91kg so he's put on about 1.2kg since he was born.
The injections were a bit painful for young George and we had a couple of unsettled days and nights. Luckily, Grandma was here to help out until she left on Saturday and then Great Aunt Aida came over to help.
Joan told me that we needed to start tummy time for George so here he is on his second attempt.
Joseph has been busy perfecting his big brother and sharing skills...here is a picture of Joseph laying out some of his toys for George to play with. He did get a bit perturbed when George wasn't actively playing with them though. I had to explain that at the moment he could only look at them!
Dan was in Sydney Wednesday through Sunday (a combination of work and play) and has really noticed a change in Joseph...again, language based. His two favourite phrases at the moment are "Look at me, Mum" (generally when perched precariously on the edge of the sofa) and "I do it myself" (this applies to everything - cutting, reading, pulling off socks, fixing the train track).
Something I noticed with Joseph over the weekend was that he is starting to transfer knowledge learnt in one area to others. He has a magnestised puzzle and a magnetised fire engine, police car and ambulance. I noticed on Saturday that he had used the magnet of the puzzle to connect to the magnet on the fire engine and was using the fire engine to pull the puzzle along. Very clever I thought!
Finally, here's a picture of the two brothers!
