More Smiles


Happy Halloween

We took Isabelle to the mall again this year for Halloween. It's warm and safe for the kids so it's a great option to going outdoors. She was Tigger this year, a costume we borrowed from a friend. We didn't have the head piece so I painted her face and made little Tigger ears. She had a lot of fun with it. We were going to dress up Simon but decided he was just too small and we skipped the pumpkin carving this year too.
Alex, Isabelle, and Miss S. Holly was there too but she's not in the picture.

Wiggles N' Giggles

We enrolled Isabelle in "Wiggles N' Giggles school" at our local community centre. Every Tuesday morning, Simon and I take her so that she can make crafts and play. She really enjoys her time there and always brings home creative projects to show Daddy.

Mommy's Clone

If I had my baby pictures here, I could show you how much Simon looks like me (that's a hint Jiichan to scan those photos and send them). He looks identical to how I looked as a baby.

Naptime!

Isabelle and Simon sharing Isabelle's bed for story time before having a nap. Isabelle is really sweet and gentle to her little brother and let Simon hold her precious bunny for story time.

Catching A Smile On Film

I managed to catch a couple of smiles on camera today. Simon started smiling last week and sometimes it sounds like he is actually laughing. The funniest thing to watch is when he is laughing and smiling while dreaming. It makes me wonder what he is dreaming about...breastfeeding??? LOL!!

Simon was weighed and measured yesterday at his final midwife checkup. At 6-1/2 weeks, he weighs 14 lbs 2 oz and is 62 cm (24.5 inches) long. I was told he is the size of a 3 month old. I guess that explains why all of his clothing is 3-6 months already. He's going to be a big boy!
