Another week that flew by...so quickly in fact that is quite hard to remember what actually happened! George had his 12 week check with Plunket. He's doing well - average weight (50th percentile) and meeting his milestones. His weight is 6.19kg (13lb 10oz) - at the same age, Joseph was 7.3kg! As you can see from the chart, George is gradually catching up to Dan...we'll keep an eye on how he goes catching up to Joseph.
In terms of milestones, George has been waving his hands around in the air for a few weeks now and in the last week has started to connect with objects. While the angle doesn't show it, George actually has the ring in his hand having grabbed it himself.
Joseph helped Dan finish off the gate for our deck on Sunday...he loved banging with the hammer and playing with all the equipment (usually when Dan needed it!). As you can see, we actually had some sun and it made us all feel very happy that summer is on the way (especially since we have just moved to daylight savings time).
Monday is usually hair washing night for Joseph and we have to bribe him with some kind of special treat in order to get the job done! At the moment, we're using chocolate paddle pops which I have to take off the stick and put into a bowl! Joseph is off for a haircut on Saturday 4th October - sure to be another stressful experience!
The final snap for this post is actually from this morning (Tue 30th)...George had his 3 month injections yesterday and here he is sleeping peacefully after a very long night for Dan and I (we were both up cuddling him during the night - I even had to watch a movie as I couldn't get him to settle).
