Some progress with tummy time
Here is Isla showing off her skills at tummy time. It still takes her a lot of concentration and effort as you can see from the tongue! She is only just starting to work out that she can use her arms to push up. Lately she has really started to use her fingers to touch things and seems to be noticing the feel of different objects.
We put Mum and Dad on the plane on Tuesday morning so the house has seemed a little empty for the last few days. Isla seemed to miss her grandparents because our first night with no visitors she was very cranky and out of sorts. Luckily last night she was back to normal and had one of her best night time sleeps, sleeping from 9:30pm until 5:20am!! We are hoping this will continue since I have only one more week of maternity leave and we would really love if she was sleeping so well when I go back to work.
Paul and I have been having a lot of fun over the last few days playing on our new toy- a sewing machine! Mum got us one for a birthday/Christmas present and we are loving it!
February so far has been a very social month, we had a birthday party to go to last night, another one tonight and then a casino night on Saturday. Isla generally comes with us for outings, although on Saturday night she is going to be baby sat by her Aunty Melissa.
After quite a few weeks of very little snow we have had a heap fall in the last few days (about a foot yesterday alone) so now everything is looking very pretty and white again.
Love April, Paul and Isla

That is such a cute photo! It won’t be long and Isla will be off, rolling over and getting ready to get moving! Sophie wants so much to be crawling, lying on her tummy and lifting up onto her wee knees, trying so hard to move forward. It only seems like a few weeks ago and she was just like Isla, having to work hard at just being on her tummy! I hope you enjoy your night out on your own.
She is just too cute!
Such concentration! Do wish we were there to babysit for you. We had a swim at Riverton today with Angus and Janet – don’t think it was much warmer than Alaskan waters are at the moment!
Love Mum
Hi you three, yes she looks very cute, love the tougue! Only two more months and we’ll be joining you in parenthood! Scary. We might even have somewhere to live by then!
We were hearing and seeing lots of photos of Isla and the snow last night. It all looks so pretty on the trees. Hope Isla keeps up sleeping so well.
