Busy busy busy....

Here is Liberty having a lovely dream i think!! hehehe

Hi Everyone!
I feel like i never get a chance to blog anymore and when I do blog... it takes me ages! Lucky there is the "save now" button so i can just update the draft!
Liberty is now six weeks old!! Ahhh, it is going so so fast! She is such a good girl! She is starting to be more alert, looking at us heaps, giving us a few little smiles, and doing lots of talking. Her favourite places are:
1. lying on the nappy change table naked
2. in the bath
3.and attached to my boob (haha).
She was supposed to go for her 6 week check up on monday but the clinic was closed due to staff illness (they also cancelled mothers group that day which i was disappointed about, as im really enjoying it!) so i have no idea how much liberty weighs, but I know she's put on a fair bit as i've had to pack away all her 0000 sized clothes this week :(
eta: Liberty has just been for her check up! She now weighs 5kg which puts her in the 90th percentile for weight. She's in the 70th percentile for her length (57cm) oh and in the doctors notes bit the doctor wrote 'healthy baby'. YAY! such great news!
* Here are a few piccies of Liberty, Matty and I taken about a week and a half ago, when I took Liberty down for a walk to visit Matty at work! He was nice and busy, the lake was nice and calm, perfect for kayaking! * This week we had the visit of Matty's parents from NZ. It was their first time meeting Liberty, they were very excited!!! We drove up to Forster for the weekend with them. It was a nice little holiday, and Matty also competed in a Kayak race whilst we were there, he came third, he was disapointed in that as there was a bit of foul play by another kayaker during the race. * On monday, not only did Liberty have her NZ grandparents visiting, but my parents came down for a quick visit too! So many grandparents to spoil Liberty!
* I've had a few baths with Liberty, she LOVES it and so do I, its so much fun! But I have to mention a funny story the first time I had a bath with her...
I got in the bath and then Matty brought Liberty into me. Liberty and I were splashing about having a great time, then I put her against me for a bit and she was looking at me and then....

....
POP!
...
...
Yep! She farted! Well, at least I just thought she farted... then all of a sudden, I realised.. it was not a fart, but a POO!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
You should of seen how fast i jumped up! "Matty! Matty! Quick! Quick! get a towel!". Matty comes running in thinking i'd done something terrible to Liberty, Im standing there holding her out of the water, and there is yellow, curdy poo floating all around the bath tub (and my feet!). Liberty still seemed totally happy even out of the water! She was still having a lovely time!
Every time I think of this moment, i have a giggle! It would of been hilarious if it was on camera!! hahahah!
Here is a piccie of Liberty enjoying the 'big bath' (not the poo incident time either)
Liberty is still not sleeping through the night but she is being a good girl (most nights) and only waking once at an unreasonable hour! I like the nights when I only have to get up once!! hehe!

One last little piccie of her before I sign off...

Oh yuck..when she's a toddler, if she accidently poos in the bath, don't be surprised if she screams..they get afraid of their own poo floating about at that age :D
I had one of mine vomit in my mouth...that was gross.
